At Southampton based Best Price Car Sales, we can pride ourselves in knowing not only the best used cars and used vans to recommend but also additional things like car accessories and retrofitted car add-on features. One of the most important things we would make sure you take into consideration, is knowing the best types of tyres to purchase. This will give you an insight into knowing that if you buy cheap or expensive, you are still buying a quality brand and product.
Probably the most important part of any car are your tyres. Good tyres can improve your stopping distance, fuel economy, enhance your road handling in wet and dry conditions, and
cut down on interior noise. Another thing to always assess is, stopping distances in test conditions.
Here are our selected choices of the top 3 tyres for cars.
Goodyear EfficientGrip Performance 2
One of Goodyear’s claims is, this new and improved tyre is 50% more durable than the EfficientGrip Performance tyre it replaced. Overall this tyre came top in all scores, apart from the wet test, to which it came fifth. There is no better tyre on the road than this one.
Michelin Primacy 4
This tyre was tested in car size tyres, which was a huge improvement from when it disappointed quite badly in the SUV category. What stood out with the Michelin Primacy 4, was how well it did in wet conditions but performed relatively low in the brake testing.Overall, this tyre is the 2nd best performing tyre on the market in all testing conditions.
Nokian Wetproof
This lesser known Finnish brand called Nokian Wetproof was a big surprise by many, due to how well it handled most of the testing put up against it. No surprises that it achieved its higher scores in the wet sections of the testing. But by coming third overall in a highly competitive market is a huge achievement from this relatively unknown Finnish tyre company. Look out for it as a good alternative in the shops.
Obviously there are cheaper and a wider selection of tyres on the market, but if you can afford it, it’s best to get the best you can. There is no greater peace of mind, knowing that if you are speeding along the motorway at 70 mph in wet or dry conditions, that the tyres you’re using are going to perform to the high standards they have been tested on.
At Best Price Car Sales, we do full checks on all the used cars and used vans we put on sale through our showrooms and nationwide storage units. We will buy the best tyres that suit every car, if they need replacing due to the MOT report we do on every used car or used van.
We also are aware that the current need for social distancing is of the utmost importance, so we use an online car viewing platform and contactless service which also includes a free delivery anywhere in England and Wales. Even if you require our part exchange service, we will call you to give you an honest but fair price for your car, and because we are a licensed car finance broker, we’re able to select only the best lenders according to your credit status.
