Winter Tyres
When winter comes, you need to get a grip. After all, there’s only a footprint-size area of rubber on each of your tyres that’s actually in contact with the road.
That’s why we offer a whole range of winter tyres for you to choose from, thoughtfully selected by us from some of the best-known and most trusted brands. We also offer expert fitting advice, so you can be sure you’ve got the right tyres for the job.
A chilling thought
When the temperature drops to 7°C or lower, your ordinary tyres start to suffer. The rubber reacts badly to the cold, and gripping and braking performance is not as good as it should be.
Add in a bit of snow or ice, and what used to be your stopping distance can easily become your not-stopping distance.
Fitting winter tyres from our range to your ŠKODA during the winter months can make a big difference to your safety on the road.
We also offer a tyre hotel service for £120 per year, please ask your local Retailer for details.
A cure for baldness
Bald or worn tyres are dangerous in good weather, and downright deadly in winter. Not to mention being illegal, of course.
We can check if your tread’s wearing a little thin. Then, if any of your tyres do need replacing, we can recommend the right size and speed rating – based on the latest information from ŠKODA – to ensure you get the best and safest handling and performance.
And we have a wide range of tyres for you to choose from, at prices that are far from hair-raising.
Be prepared
Your ŠKODA comes equipped with a tyre repair kit. But if you would feel happier with a spare wheel on board too, we can provide one – together with the tool kit for fitting it.
The tool kit – comprising lifting jack, spanner, tool box, fastening strap, and screw to hold the spare in place when stored – starts at just £30. The spare wheel starts from just £94. Or get both together from only £124 RRP.
Pull your Snocks™ up
Snocks™ Snow Socks are a quick and easy way to get a better grip in winter. Fitted in minutes to the driving wheels of your ŠKODA, they give better traction in snow and ice.
