[ "Touchthe road with the appropriate tyre tread Your passenger car tyreshave grooves. They are different from racing cars that have smooth tread. The smooth tread of racing helps them to maintain proper grip and traction atextremely high speeds. Since the main goal ofpassenger tyres is not to beat the competitors, they come with grooves. Withthe help of different tread patterns, ContinentalTyres Wrexham make proper traction on different road surfaces. ;Infact, the tread pattern changes the behaviour of car tyres completely. However,factors like rubber material and air pressure play their roles as well. Letus know more about grip and tractionWhat is the definition of agood car tyre? Certainly, you will include grip and traction while you talkabout the features of efficient car tyres. Car tyres would not be able to keepthe vehicle properly stable without gripping power. Car tyres make proper gripon the road surface with the help of frictional force. A higher level of frictionmeans better traction. Since the tyre rubber material has high frictioncoefficient, your tyres will create good friction on dry roads. However, thesame is not true for wet road surfaces. The tyre rubber would not beable to create proper friction on water. Therefore, the chances of skidding arehigher on a wet surface. The role of tyre tread isvital on wet roads. The design of the tyre tread allows the tyres to scatter extrawater efficiently on wet roads. It means, water never accumulates underneaththe tyre to cause problems like hydroplaning. Tyre makers make tyres withthe same idea for mud and snow. The tread pattern will displace mud and snoweffectively to keep your tyres safe. Typically, tyres for snowand mud come with deeper grooves. Deep grooves will provide better traction onwet roads. However, deeper groovesremove a lot of extra water but a thin layer will remain to cause problems.Modern tyres come with smaller grooves called sipes to solve this problem.Sipes are efficient to expel extra water to maintain proper contact between thetyre and the road surface. Only adding deeper groovesand sipes will not solve the problem completely since you have to run on variedroad surfaces. Therefore, tyre makers design a number of patterns and designs tomake the tyre tread more effective for a specific road or weather condition. Tyretread for varied seasons Higher traction means highrolling resistance as the negative aspect of frictional force. Suppose youdrive your car with underinflated tyres on roads, your tyres will get moretraction due to increased contact patch but they will have high rolling resistanceat the same time. Therefore, tyre makers haveto keep all these factors in their mind to make an ideal for a specificweather conditions. For example, winter tyreswill provide good traction on snowy roads. However, they will run with highrolling resistance on dry roads at high temperatures. In addition, winter tyrescome with a softer tread rubber. Therefore, they will melt easily due to the heatin the summer season. Therefore, we do not advise running seasonal tyres ininappropriate weather conditions. Commontypes of the tyre treadThere are three common typesof tyre tread called symmetric, asymmetric and directional. Symmetric tread pattern:As the name of this patternsuggests, these tyres have a symmetrical pattern on both sides. They arestandard passenger car tyres. Therefore, you will see this pattern in everysecond vehicle. This type of pattern is cheaper than other tread patterns. Directionaltread pattern:You can recognize this treadpattern with its special V-shaped design. These tyres are suitable for only onedirection. Therefore, it is not possible to change the direction of these tyresif you rotate your rear and front tyres. This design is common in winter andother rain-friendly tyres. Asymmetricaltread pattern:These tyres have twodifferent tread designs on the outer and inner edges. The outer side of the tyrehas large and stiff tread blocks to perform well on dry roads. The inner sideof Tyres;Wrexham has a differentdesign to channel water in wet conditions. " ]
