Tires: from field 4 seasons the most interesting news of the year – Weather Web

Tired of having to change every six months car tires to meet the standards on seasonality? The answer to the problem may be the technology that made it possible to develop new models of all-season tires.
Until a few years ago, even the most attentive to the news of the motor world would have difficulties in match the words “four seasons” to something different from the scope lyrical music (the eponymous opera by Vivaldi) or more frequently gastronomic (the type of Neapolitan pizza with various toppings). But even at best, one in which you grabbed the reference tires, certainly you would not have spoken of a utilitarian, everyday for all, but rather an attempt to find a compromise between a winter tire (the base of the old models) and the ability to use it throughout the year.
strategy Change. But, thanks to recent technological innovations and experimentation of new compounds and innovative design, today we are experiencing the second generation of this type of tires on which they are aiming for, and much, all the large manufacturers. In fact, just look at the portal page of the Italian reseller Euroimport tires , one of the most reliable sites and certified in our country, to notice how the choice is increased for motorists wishing to mount tires 4 seasons and first solve a problem that afflicts millions of drivers, that of seasonal change.
new solution. Even in Italy, as is known, in fact, it exists an obligation to adapt the tires to the growing season, and therefore from mid-April to mid-November you have to move with summer tires, and in the remaining six months with more specifically winter tires, marked at least (according as reported by the Highway Code) by the M + S mark, which, however, now appears outdated. A real nuisance for over 65 percent of European drivers, according to recent surveys decide not to make this change, however, exposing themselves to security risks and possible fines. The all-season rubber, however, is the ideal solution to overcome this obstacle.
With the sun or snow . Thanks to new research on the compounds, tires 4 seasons have reached the highest peaks from the point of view of performance: in particular, the mix currently used as a standard by the various houses (despite being a secret recipe, different from brand to brand) has a most silica content compared to summer tires, which keeps the soft compound even when the temperature drops below 7 degrees centigrade, as in the case of winter products; on the tread, moreover, there are more and more marked lamellae channels for the expulsion of water and snow compared to traditional summer. These two details ensure a better grip even on wet and icy bottom, and at the same time the duration and wear resistance are higher than the winter, even with the heat, because the compounds are precisely designed to not spoil on hot asphalt of ‘summer either crystallize when the air is cold and the bottom.
peak Products . Not surprisingly, the latest products have not only the aforementioned M + S marking, enough to travel on Italian traits in winter, but also the innovative brand of three mountain peaks with snow flake, which is the new standard used in the United States and various European countries. At the moment, the product on which it has focused more attention is the Michelin Cross Climate, the four defined seasons rubber “revolutionary” by the French because it combines characteristics of both summer and winter in a single product, available this year in 19 other measures, five of which are devoted to SUVs and Crossover. Also interesting is the Goodyear Vector 4Seasons Genesis 2 which won the comparative test of the German car magazine Gute Fahrt thanks to excellent performance, especially on the side of adhesion on dry and wet.
