all season tyres in UK? (London based)
- Thread starter Slam
- Start date
Thanks for the responses. Good point about mixing tyres, hadn't thought about that.
Car is a Mercedes B180 so its driven sensibly and mostly in and around London, occasional uk road trips though.
My question came after reading that all season tyres are almost as good as summer tyres but much better below 10c. Grip, fuel economy and noise are more important than dynamic ability.

Fair points and I realise it doesn't matter much. I ask not as a stunt driving enthusiast but rather someone who is going to have to buy new tyres soon and wondered if all seasons made sense. If ever I was to switch over type it'd be now.You live in London, not the remote wilderness or the Scottish Highlands
If you just bumble around in the Merc B thing and then by all means go for a summer/wet based all season like the cross climate 2 or vector 4 Season Gen3.
But a top spec summer tyre will be better unless you're consistently under 5degsC and in wet/slush (refer back to my first paragraph)
