Can I put 1 winter tyre on my car?
No, we would not recommend that you fit only one winter tyre to your car.
Can I put 2 winter tyres on my vehicle?
Yes, you can put two winter tyres on your vehicle. Ideally, you would put them on either the front or rear axle, rather than mixing them between the two.
Can I put 3 winter tyres on?
No, it is not recommended to put only three winter tyres on your vehicle. This can cause handling imbalances and potentially dangerous situations. As one tyre will not be matched to the other 3 in terms of grip and handling abilities.
