When should I switch to summer and winter tyres?

Spring and autumn can be unpredictable as the weather changes suddenly. So, when should you switch to winter or summer tyres? Let's guide you through that here.

Switching to winter tyres

When the weather gets colder, with temperatures dropping below 7 degrees Celsius, it's essential to change to winter tyres.The transition to wintertime at the end of October can serve as a reminder to schedule a workshop appointment for a tyre change. Switching to winter tyres before it gets frosty outside is a smart move. Once it freezes, waiting for the workshop to switch from summer to winter tyres can be risky.

Switching to summer tyres

April is usually a good time to switch from winter to summer tyres. The likelihood of snow and ice on the roads is low, meaning the streets are ready for summer tyres.However, it's essential to monitor the morning temperature, as it should be at least 7 degrees Celsius before switching to summer tyres.

Other countries – different rules

If you travel abroad, it's important to note that some countries have specific rules for using summer and winter tyres. For instance, in Sweden, winter tyres are required until March 31st.If you plan a road trip in the early spring months, we advise you to familiarize yourself with the regulations in the countries you visit.
