How should I store my tyres during the off-season?

It is recommended to clean your tyres thoroughly, ensure they are dry, and store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. If possible, stack them vertically or hang them to prevent deformation.

What are the best practices for tyre storage?

Best practices include keeping tyres in a climate-controlled environment, avoiding exposure to chemicals or solvents, and using tyre covers to protect them from dust and UV rays.

How does seasonal weather affect tyre wear?

Seasonal weather can significantly impact tyre wear; for instance, extreme heat can cause tyres to degrade quicker, while cold temperatures can harden the rubber, reducing grip and increasing the likelihood of cracking.

What signs should I look for to identify seasonal damage on my tyres?

Signs of seasonal damage include visible cracks in the sidewalls, uneven tread wear, bulges, and loss of tread depth. Regular inspections can help catch these issues early.

What factors should I consider when selecting tyres for each season?

When selecting seasonal tyres, consider factors such as climate conditions, typical road surfaces, driving style, and the specific performance characteristics required, like grip or fuel efficiency.
