All-season tyres in Erdington
One set of tyres for the whole year, with no swapping in spring and autumn. A sensible choice for a lot of British drivers, supplied and fitted in Erdington.
Find all-season tyres for your car
An all-season tyre is a compromise, and it suits the British climate well. It stays usable in the cold without feeling soft and vague on a warm motorway, so you leave one set on all year instead of paying for a second set and a swap twice a year.
They have come a long way. Many now carry the three-peak snowflake mark, which means they have passed a snow performance test, and that is worth looking for if you are comparing two.
They do give something up. On a hot, dry road a good summer tyre grips harder and steers more sharply, and in deep cold a true winter tyre does better. On an everyday family car in Birmingham that is usually an easy trade to accept. On a quick car that gets driven hard, it may not be.

Are they right for you?
A good choice if
- You do average mileage on normal roads
- You want one set and no changeovers
- You have nowhere to keep a second set
- You want more cold-weather grip than a summer tyre gives
Think again if
- You drive a quick car hard through the summer
- You want the sharpest steering you can get
- You regularly face serious snow or ice
Common questions
Can I keep all-season tyres on all year?
Yes, that is what they are for. Check the tread and the pressures as you would with any tyre, and they can stay on through every season.
Are all-season tyres as good as winter tyres in snow?
No. The best of them cope surprisingly well, but a proper winter tyre still grips better in deep snow and on ice. If that is what you drive in regularly, go for winter tyres.
Do I have to replace all four at once?
A full set is best, because mixing different types of tyre changes how the car behaves. If you would rather do two now and two later, speak to us first and we will tell you what makes sense for your car.
