Summer tyres - optimal grip guaranteed!
On dry roads or mild weather, your tyres have to face some increased demands and must always meet safety standards. Compared to winter tyres, the rubber mixture of the summer tyres is harder, even in high temperatures. Default rolling resistance and wear are smaller, resulting in a greater lifespan, comfort and increased stability. Choose now from our offer your summer tyres at an affordable price. Our portfolio includes a wide range of tyre brands
 
Identify the size of your tyre
The exact dimensions of a tyre can be found on the sidewall printed mark. The graphic shows how to read properties and dimensions of the tyre:
 
/
SPEED INDEX:
The speed index indicates the maximum speed intended for the tyre. Up to this value, the manufacturer guarantees optimum operation with the appropriate tyre pressure. The maximum speed allowed for this vehicle is given in the vehicle owner's manual; this information can be used to select the appropriate speed index for the tyre. The speed index is the last mark on the sidewall of the tyre.
 
Load Index
Permissible maximum axle load per tyre in kg. To be found in the registration certificate or vehicle registration document or read directly from the tyre (two-digit number). It is permitted to fit a tyre with a higher load index.
 
Driving safety despite puncture
Runflat tyres are puncture-resistant tyres with reinforced sidewalls. This creates the so-called run-flat property. In the event of damage, this allows the vehicle to continue driving up to a distance of approx. 100 km (and even beyond depending on the product) at a maximum speed of 80 km/h, even if the pressure has been completely lost. Run-flat tyres even prevent the tyre rubber from jumping off the rim in the event of a loss of air pressure. A flat tyre is therefore still a flat tyre, but it loses some of its drama. Note: All run-flat tyres are marked with the symbol "RSC" (Runflat System Component) and may only be fitted in vehicles with a functioning air pressure control system!
 
Tyres with increased load capacity
Reinforced tyres are designed for higher loads than normal tyres. They can be identified by the designation 'RF' (reinforced) or also 'XL' or 'Extra Load'. They are used on vans, minibuses, off-road vehicles, etc. However, their mounting alone does not automatically result in higher load capacity but also requires a correspondingly higher air pressure. Furthermore, the load capacity index specified in the vehicle documents continues to apply.
 
Tyres with extra high load capacity
The "C" in the term C tyres stands for "commercial". These tyres are specially designed for commercial vehicles. These can be, for example, lighter trucks, delivery vans, flatbed trucks or panel vans. In other words: vehicles that have to move higher loads at a comparatively lower speed. The multi-ply reinforced C tyres are therefore even more load-bearing than reinforced tyres.
 
Mobility-optimised tyres
A tyre with a sealing layer on the opposite side of the tyre tread. In the event of a puncture (e.g. by a nail), this layer blocks any loss of air, even if the foreign body causing the puncture is still in the tyre. It is not necessary to stop or change the tyres immediately at the roadside.

Tyres optimised for electric vehicles.
Tyre developed for electric vehicles. These tyres can also be used without hesitation on vehicles with other drive systems.

Original equipment quality: optimum adjustment to the vehicle
Tyres with a special OEM marking on the sidewall, e.g. "MO" for Mercedes-Benz, were developed in cooperation with a specific car manufacturer and the tyre industry. These tyres have been homologated by the vehicle manufacturer and are a perfect match for a specific model. They have been specially designed to highlight or further improve the performance characteristics of the car in question, thus representing the culmination of a state-of-the-art fine-tuning process that perfectly complements the latest technological developments in the automotive industry. Tyres with manufacturer's markings can of course also be used on other vehicles.

Great tyres, safe and give confidence on all surfaces and conditions
13.06.2025 from stevi
best tyres ever had them on Audi A3 TDI sport ,fiesta st .ford focus MK2,jaguar xj 3Ltdi best grip ever handles in wet like a great tyre does when dry grips so hard in the dry the engine struggles to go faster because of the grip tried all the named brands like Mitchellen ,toyos ,co rentals and the uni royals beat them ever time not just price but grip safety and handling too .never use any other tyre the 5s are better than the 3s but not by much . hard to improve on such a great tyre

Great.
13.04.2024 from Geof Wassell
Driving within my own ability and the ability of the vehicle I choose to drive is what I do. The tyres on my car are part of the interface between driver and road. I prefer to drive with the tyres fully inflated in order to feel the feedback from the surface of the road through noise, suspension and steering, I ballance throttle and brake response with weather conditions, road conditions and temperature. Tyres with less grip just dictate that I should moderate speed and braking at an increased rate. Noisey tyres provide slightly better feedback than silent tyres. The road with current traffic congestion burden isnt the place for performance spirited driving but is the place where defensive driving must be used. I would describe my tyres as competent.

In comparison to other Hankook tyre types i&#39;ve used over the years these were terrible verging on dangerous in respect to grip whilst breaking in all conditions. I have removed these tyres and reverted to the part worns previously fitted. There is something very wrong with the compound of these tyres.
20.10.2023 from Gary Lyford
Grip always feels good, very impressed with how they deal with standing water on fast roads.
19.03.2021 from Neil Hulbert
Driving reponse good with low road noise.
14.02.2020 from Owen
Fitted to a 1978 Dolomite Sprint for a European endurance run. Great grip and braking - very confident drive through the Alps and on some of those crazy European motorway interchanges with tight turns. Very pleased with these tyres and will busy again for this vehicle and the modern!

04.01.2022 from colin
I have tried virtually every chinese built tyre over the years on my classic mini and they dont last more than 5000 miles. The rubber compound is too soft, I get through at least one set of tyres a year. They were cheap but are now getting more expensive. Tyres from mytyres are shipped from germany, not oxford, and mine took 6 weeks to arrive...

These tyres in my rear wheel drive BMW are grippy in the dry, but leave me yearning for more in the wet. The car will &quot;step-out&quot; if I punch it whilst the road is even midly damp. My tracking was done at the same time as having these fitted so that is not a factor. The car will also step out if the road is more greasy looking.

11.02.2022 from David T
Replaced Pirelli P Zero. Equal driving experience in dry, wet, high speed, comfort, and was quieter. Very good choice at half the price of P Zero
07.09.2020 from Jonathan
All I can say is that theses tyres are excellent value for money. It&#39;s like driving a new car again, the tyres feel responsive, grippy and not a lot of road noise which is a bug bare of mine with lots of tyres. I&#39;ve only done just over 5000 miles on them but they still look brand new so hoping the wear rate is good. But to be honest they cost less than &pound;50 a tyre fitted ( all 4 changed at same time) . So they don&#39;t need to last forever.
27.08.2020 from Mark R
These were one of the worst tyres we have ever fitted. Exactly the same as previous tyres which came from manufacturer for vehicle. They wouldn&#39;t fit, had to massively overinflat to get them to grip the rim. Awful experience.
19.07.2020 from David
Very happy

205 55 R16 Summer Tyres in All Price Ranges

Primarily used for saloons and mid-range estate vehicles, the 205 55 R16 is a summer tyre produced by numerous companies. Premium manufacturers as well as companies where the costs for the new tyres are in the lower price range. For many years, this dimension has been a standard tyre for many vehicles in the summer, allowing consumers to benefit from its excellent characteristics. Whether on dry or wet ground conditions, most models convince with a good performance. In general, the tyre models correspond to a speed index of H (up to 130 mph) or V (up to 150 mph).

Due to the high demand, developers are always striving to produce efficient tyres. Compared to all-season tyres, these tyres show significantly better values at higher asphalt temperatures and sufficient grip to handle various sections of the track with a sporty and quiet driving style.

Summer tyres are the standard tires of newly delivered vehicles. Compared to the winter tyres, used in wintry road conditions in the cold season, summer tyres with a temperature of 15º C and above can offer significantly better handling characteristics. Thus, not only the response time to steering movements is shortened by appropriate summer tyres in the warmer seasons, but also ensures more excellent directional stability, as well as lower fuel consumption and braking distance.

Good 205 55 R 16 summer tyres should cause the least possible rolling noise and equally low rolling resistance to ensure fuel-efficient driving. Tests of numerous manufacturer-independent car magazines or automobile associations is a good help in deciding on suitable 205 55 R 16 summer tyres. Experience has shown that an expensive premium tyre may not always be the best and a cheaper model from the Far East is not necessarily worse than the models of many European or American premium brand manufacturers.

All this and more can be found at Tirendo.co.uk as we stock all known and less known brands. We even offer a complete wheel and tyre packages for the 205 55 R16 summer tyres size to boost your car’s appearance.
