❄️ Commuting from Dagenham on the A13 as the mornings turn cold? Here's an honest look at winter and all-season tyres.
✅ The 7°C rule: below about 7°C, summer tyre rubber stiffens and grips less, especially in the wet
✅ All-season tyres suit most London drivers: one set all year, with better grip on cold, damp mornings
✅ Dedicated winter tyres make most sense if you regularly head into snow, hills or driving abroad
⚠️ They aren't a legal requirement in the UK, but tread depth is: 1.6mm minimum, and we'd change them well before 3mm
⚠️ Fit them in matching pairs, at least on the same axle
1️⃣ Check your pressures more often as temperatures drop
