[ "Various tyre types and their functionsTyres are more than just a ring of rubber filled with air. It is acomplicated part of the engineering that is available in various shapes and typesand manufactured to tackle the challenges. The two main regions fordistinguishing the tyre are the rubber part and the tread design. Below arementioned some of the tyre types and their properties:Summer tyresIn hotter weather, summer tyres have a special raw material that offersgreat traction and stability on both dry and wet surfaces. These tyres alsohave lower rolling resistance, improved fuel economy, and lower road sound.Summer tyre tread patterns are more compact than winter tyre treadpatterns, with fewer ridges for water displacement and a larger contact areawith the surface. As a result, even during the dry season, the car hasexcellent acceleration and traction.However, they are inappropriate for icy road conditions due to the sameproperties  the special rubber material and basic tread pattern. As thetemperature falls below seven degrees Celsius, the material hardens andbrittles, and the tread pattern is no longer capable of handling ice or snow.Winter tyresThese tyres Birmingham offer excellent traction on roads coveredwith ice as well as on wet surfaces. Winter tyres also have sipes and they arebest for displacing water and help in removing water from the way of thevehicle. It decreases the risk of hydroplaning.Winter tyres must not be utilized in the summer months. However, theenhanced rolling resistance would result in more fuel consumption and sound.A winter tyre's tread type includes more rubber, which means it won'tsolidify as the temperature falls below 7 degrees Celsius. In coolerenvironments, it maintains flexibility and limberness to minimize brakingdistance. Broader frames in the tread structure dig into the snow to givefurther traction.All-season tyresNot one ideal tyre exists yet that can handle all forms of climateconditions throughout the year. A summer tyre has poor traction on the ice, anda winter tyre works poorly on hot tarmac.However, if you reside in an area with only a moderate climate in thesummers and winters, or in a region where the streets are free of snow, and youdrive less than 10,000 miles, all-season tyres may be adequate for your requirements.An all-season tyre incorporates the best features of winter and summertyres to form a balanced option that offers the best outcome. In theirentities, though, an all-season tyre could not match the seasonalspecialization of a summer or winter tyre.Also, all-season tyres might be best for those individuals who neverhave to deal with intense climatic conditions.Run-flat tyresRun flats by brands like Bridgestone Tyres Birmingham are a typeof tyre that is designed to be used as the creation of the tubed tyre or theshift from bias-ply to radial tyres. Run-flat tyres;have become the mostsignificant innovations in the automotive sector. Why is it such agame-changer? This tyre could remain completely functional even if there is an air-lossSolid and dense hardened sidewalls have the durability of a run-flattyre, allowing it to be operated on momentarily after a puncture. A damagedrun-flat tyre must be able to move up to 50 miles in most cases. However,remember that they are not fixable and must be replaced as quickly as possible.4x4 tyres4x4 tyres have a wider set tread pattern than standard car tyres, with awider tread frame and wider tyre loops. On muddy terrain, regular tyres performbadly so the tread easily fills with dirt and the wheel spins ineffectively,pushing the tyre deeper into a trench. These tyres offer great traction onterrains like grass and mud" ]
