Winter tyres for your SUV


Winter tyres for your SUV • When you look for winter tyres for an SUV, you will need to look for special SUV tyres, there are special SUV studded tyres and SUV non-studded tyres. Some even indicate that they are good for electric cars, which is important to check if your car is a hybrid or electric. If you select tyres for a hybrid or electric car or an SUV that are not recommended for that use, they might wear out too fast, as the wear is higher due to higher torque and their inherent higher weight due to heavy battery packs.


Winter tyres for your SUV • Due to the higher wear with hybrid and electric cars, it is important to rotate the tyres when the difference in tread depth is 2-3 mm. You will need to track the tread depth so that you know when it is time to rotate. It might be that you will need to rotate 3-4 months to make sure that you can get more service life out of your tyres. Even if you change between summer and winter tyres and you are used to make the rotation during these occasions, the higher wear with electric cars might make this too seldom. So you may have to do it a bit more frequently, thus you will need to measure and keep track of the tyre wear.


Winter tyres for your SUV • If you live and experience Nordic winters, the Nokian Hakkapeliitta R3 SUV is a great tyre for real winter weather, with Aramid Sidewalls to make it even more puncture resistant.

So regardless if you have rain, snow, ice or slush, these tyres will get you safely to your end destination.


Winter tyres for your SUV • The key for safety is that even SUVs need proper winter tyres. Even though they look like they would be able to drive through any type of terrain, the cold can make even the most rugged looking tyre turn extremely hard and make them lose a lot of their ability to create grip on even normal roads. If you then combine that with proper winter weather with snow and ice, you might be in for a dangerous drive. So make sure that you get a set of high quality SUV winter tyres.
