What are performance tyres?

Performance tyres are ideal for off-roading and high-speed driving on both dry and wet tarmacs, as well as on unpaved surfaces. It’s because of their superior rubber compound and tread patterns that helps driving in such conditions and offer a nippier feel while cornering.

Shortcoming? They are not suitable for wintry conditions.

Advantage? They last twice as long as all-weather tyres. Thence, when you buy performance car tyres in St. Helens, you can make two tyre slots in your garage and switch when seasons change.
