[ "Significant reasons for tyre wearing at timesThe tyre is not matched to the car model or doesnot suit the driving conditions. For example, using summer tyres in winter iswrong. Driving with lower pressure than recommended can also damage your tyresvery quicklyTyres are old and worn out (less than 3mm oftread depth). Asbestos belts in older tyres wear out with time and make thetyre unusable after a while (5-10 years);Driving style: Aggressive drivers tend to brakeharder, accelerate faster etc., which mean that their tyres will naturally wearout more quickly than others;Too much load on the wheel/tyre means that theyare pressed onto the road under greater forces, resulting in faster wear;The wrong wheel alignment can also cause fastertyre wear;What types of tyres need replacing?On the sidewall you will find a letter-number combinationlike 195/65 R15 91 H - this enables you to determine the different informationabout your tyres, for example, its width (195mm), its height (65% of 195 mm) andits wheel diameter (15 inches). What follows is another number (91 in thiscase) that determines the tire's maximum load capacityA smaller number results in less load capacity; if thisnumber falls below 60%, it often makes sense to change both Continental Tyres Evesham tyres on that axle, regardless of howmuch tread remains on them. You lack an effect on your driving comfortWhat is the legal minimum depth of tread?As mentioned before, driving on worn-out tyres can leadto dangerous situations in winter or bad weather conditions - often without anyimmediate consequences for you or your passengers. Driving with worn-out tyresover long distances will undoubtedly mean that you need new ones earlier thanplanned while increasing fuel consumption and reducing grip on all road surfacesAs a general rule:;if it's wet outside, thenthere are usually no excuses for not wearing winter tyres, even though theyare more expensive than regular summer models this might be considered as anadditional cost that reflects the price of safe drivingIn an emergency:;as long as there is at least1.6mm of tread, your car can legally be considered to be in a fit state todrive on public roads. But this does not mean that you must do so! Even if youmanage to get home or to the next garage with such tyres it would probably besensible and safer for you and other road users if you change your tyresimmediately. This way you will avoid the risk of aquaplaning due to wateraccumulating between Tyres Evesham and the road surface during subsequent rain showersFor everyday use on public roads:;thismeans using them within legal speed limits (80km/h) for cars without trailer,passengers service vehicles up to 3.5 tones and motor homes. For vehicles over3,500kg a speed of 90km/h is allowed  so this might be a reason to use wintertyres even if your car often exceeds this limit. A good rule of thumb: as soonas there is less than 4mm left, you should think about replacing those tyresfor safety's sake;If you plan to use your vehicle frequently on gravelroads or unpaved areas (including the countryside) during the winter, it makessense to switch to winter tyres as early as September - regardless of how muchtread remains on themIf you regularly drive through a forest, on roads coveredwith gravel or if more than one person drives your vehicle: it might make senseto change your tyres as early as June. In any event, try to follow the weatherforecasts and desert the road whenever necessary!;What type of tyre should I have?Many motorists still think that all winter tyres arestudded tyres  this however is not true. With modern technology, it has nowbecome possible to offer a large variety of non-studded winter tyres. Somebrands even offer a choice between an "advanced stud-less design" anda "robust winter design", whereby the latter is usually aimed atthose who don't use their car during snowy periods but still need to have itready for use in emergenciesSkipping thewinter tyres altogether? Some people don't like driving on summer tyresduring snow and ice, even though they are legally allowed. However, thesedrivers often switch to 4 studded tyres or fit snow chains - none of thesesolutions is recommended by experts.As previouslymentioned such equipment can lead to an increased accident risk due to poorgrip and braking behaviour on snowy roads. It is also possible that theauthorities will fine you if you drive with non-standard tyres or wheel chainswithout declaring this in advance (e.g. at a motorway service area)." ]
