Round, soft but not weak- The tyres of your car

With the development of humans, the need for transporting the things rose, which led to using animals for this purpose. In the prehistoric times, people used animals like horses, camels and even dogs for carrying the loads. Others took the way of rivers for moving their things. Then the invention of the wheel led to a significant change in the development process. Using wheels, people invented carts, then chariots. But the use of these was limited. A better idea was finally thought of by the Romans, who realised the need for a car to travel large distances. One of the most amazing facts about cars is that no single person invented them. The discoveries of Greeks, Romans and others combined and led to the invention of the car.

An interesting thing to note about cars is that the car's essential parts were discovered first and then putting them together this whole structure was developed. These critical parts include the engine, the wheels, the gears and the windscreen other parts namely, the battery, axles, brakes, pistons, fuel injector, radiator, AC compressor, clutch, engen wipers. With further advancements, varioine fan, car jack, shock absorbers, transmission, spark plug, air filter, muffler, catalytic converter, alternator, pressure gauge and others were developed.


Each of these parts has its importance, but the most important and neglected part is a tyre, which serves as the only direct contact between the vehicle and the road. A driver should have good knowledge of these to ensure smooth and efficient driving. Right tyres absorb shock, support the vehicle and guarantee a safe and comfortable ride.

Keeping in mind the importance of tyres to a vehicle, various kinds of tyres are being manufactured nowadays based on the price range, climatic factors and the type of vehicle they are to be attached with. So, let us now read about the different varieties of tyres being produced all around.

1) Premium Tyres:

As the name suggests, Premium tyres come at high prices, but they are worth their prices because of the high quality we get in return. These tyres have been prepared after rigorous testing and various research to perform well even in the harshest conditions. They are most durable of all types of tyres. Brands like Pirelli, Bridgestone and Continental provide such tyres in the market.

2) Budget Tyres:

Budget tyres come at a lower price as compared to the premium tyres. Their quality is also just like their price. These tyres are useful when we need to quickly change tyres with less cash in hand, like in case of a puncture or wearing down of the tread. But these tyres will not be the right choice for everyday use because they need to be changed frequently, which ultimately adds up to a large amount in a long time.

3) Summer Tyres:

Summer Tyres are designed especially for the warm seasons, for temperatures above 7 degrees Celsius. These tyres provide high grip and ensure smooth driving on the wet and dry roads during summer seasons. These tyres are usually preferred in areas with high temperatures like Wembley and others.

4) Winter Tyres:

Winter tyres Wembley are suitable for temperatures below 7 degrees Celsius. These tyres are designed mainly for winter seasons. They remain effective even in the snowy and icy conditions. They have a rubber compound which keeps them soft and flexible at low temperatures. These are preferred usually in areas with shallow temperatures like Bushey and others.

5) All-season Tyres:

Their name makes it clear that these tyres are designed so that they can be used in all seasons, but not as effective as the summer and winter tyres in summer and winter season respectively. All-season tyres provide better fuel efficiency and are most suited for everyday use.

6) Luxury Tyres:

Now we discuss the most expensive of all tyres and that are the luxury tyres. These tyres are designed especially for luxury cars, to match their standards. People who are really brand conscious prefer these types of tyres in their luxury cars.

So, before buying a new set of tyres Bushey, collect useful data about your car's tyre requirement and approach the right name in the tyre market.
