You should not underestimate the importance of good tyres and what they do for your car
- They are the only contact between you and the road.
- Good tyres are first of all your guarantee for a safe and comfortable ride.
- Each tyre touches the road surface on an area that is approximately the size of a postcard.
- Supporting your car: the four tyres and the air inside them support the weight of your car.
- Absorbing road shocks: the air or nitrogen in the tyres act as a spring and this dramatically increases your comfort.
- Transmitting traction and braking forces: thanks to the tyres, you can drive... and stop.
- Steering: changing the tyre angle steers the vehicle.
You should not underestimate the importance of BAD tyres and how BAD they are for your car
- Poor tyres can reduce the performance of your car.
- Poor tyres can increase your stopping distance and raise the risk of skidding.
- Furthermore, underinflated or worn tyres increase fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.
