How to Choose the Right Summer Tires for Your Vehicle?

Passenger or commercial tires: why choosing the right summer tires is essential
As temperatures begin to rise, it’s easy to assume that all summer tires are the same. However, making an informed decision—whether for passenger or commercial tires—can make a significant difference on the road, in terms of safety, performance… and even your wallet.

The right summer tires ensure:

Excellent grip on dry or wet pavement
Shorter braking distances
Superior driving comfort
Improved fuel efficiency
Slower wear, which means better long-term savings
A poor choice, on the other hand, can compromise your safety and lead to premature tire wear

How to choose the right summer tires?
Here are a few key factors to consider:

✅ 1. Your vehicle type
The needs of an SUV, sedan, or sports car are different. Make sure the tires are designed for your specific vehicle category.

✅ 2. Your driving habits
Do you mostly drive in the city? On the highway? Do you prefer a sportier driving experience? Some tires are designed for enhanced comfort, others for better handling and performance.

✅ 3. Local weather conditions
Even in summer, rain can make roads slippery. If you frequently drive in wet conditions, look for tires that perform well on wet surfaces.
