Mud-terrain tyres;

The Jeep Chief is sporting a custom fuel door, 2″ Lift Kit, and 37″ Mud-Terrain tyres. This Jeep is ready to ride!

Mud-terrain tyres. Were originally made to provide the vehicle with traction. Therefore, that could go anywhere. They were developed to give the 4X4 driver. Excellent durability. Whilst also giving good wear and traction in any weather.

Hence, that the vehicle could come up across. Including heavy snow falls. Mud tyres are technically designed with the help of racing tyres. As a result, they were derived from a “cut-chip and tear-resistant tread compound”.

This would give the tyres exceptional grip.

Also, wear resistance when driving on roads that would normally tear tyres to shreds, such as gravel roads.

The compound on these tyres. Are therefore generated from computers. Hence, to provide the tyres with tread patterns. Also with high-void all-terrain pattern.

Thus, with interlocking tread blocks

This is also supported by placing the sipes. Consequently, in a way that rejects and throws out pieces of grit and gravel,. At one time, tyres with many sipes would also be noisy. As a result, when driving on normal tarmac roads,

The Mud Terrain tyres, with all their siping, can now run much quieter on normal tarmac roads due to the computer design.

BFG Mud Terrain tyres

The upper shoulder sidewall armour. Consequently, features a tougher sidewall rubber compound. That’s twice as thick as previous range of BFG Mud Terrain tyres.

According to the 4X4 site,. Of which, we at Pellon Tyres are members for the Halifax area of Yorkshire, UK.

“its predecessor and extended Side-Biter Lugs. That deliver additional traction. Thus, by providing the clawing action necessary to develop traction. Including, steering control in deep dirt, sand or on rock. Especially, during “aired down” off-road driving. The tyres internal structure. Thus, includes twin steel belts. Naturally, reinforced with spirally wrapped nylon. So on top of Goodrich’s TriGard, 3-ply polyester cord sidewall. With ply construction (2 plies for Load Range C tyres) for strength and durability. Single strand beads (a single strand of bead wire. Is continuously wrapped multiple times. Accordingly, until the desired strength is provided) enhance the tyres fit to the wheel. Therefore, to improve uniformity and ride quality”.

Pirelli F1 PZero Purple

In my opinion.This is a great choice of tyre.Hence, to add to the Pirelli family of F1 tyres.Hence, the tyre looks good in its bright purple lettering? if you are a tyre or an F1 racing enthusiast.

In the coming race season

Pirelli will be using their medium compound tyres (white). Hard compounds (orange) and soft compounds (yellow) with supersoft (red) compoundsConsequently, a fifth ultra-soft (purple) compound will join these. Thus, it is the softest compound in the Pirelli racing range.

The racing will be more exciting. Because the winning team would have made all the right decisions. Including the correct tyres to race on.Hence, that particular day? The previous race seasons have brought Pirelli tyres much controversy. Drivers and officials have been blaming the tyres. As a result, there are all sorts of problems.

In fact, at one stage

I thought that Pirelli would lose the contract. Indeed, to their arch enemy Michelin tyres. Undoubtedly, they were in the hunt for the lucrative F1 tyre contract. Things settled down towards the 2015 season and Pirelli came up trumps in the bidding war. Pirelli also brought out some new tyre compounds. Including the new Pirelli F1 P Zero Purple, softer compound.

Pirelli F1 PZero Purple

As we are speaking about the 2016 race season, then The BBC has learned that the FIA, which governs F1, will instruct Pirelli to design a tyre that will allow drivers to push hard for longer.

Pirelli chairman Marco Tronchetti Provera told teams and drivers at a meeting earlier this month, where dissatisfaction with the current tyres was discussed, that it could produce whatever the F1 wanted as long as it had clear commission.

Pirelli has been given preliminary information about the performance the cars are expected to have in 2017 so it can start working on tyre design.

The FIA plans to outline how it wants tyres to perform and will provide all necessary data to the company by the end of March.

Van Brakes Require Regular Attention

March 30, 2025 Eric 1 Comment

Van Brakes Require Regular Attention

Your Van Brakes Require Regular Attention and are the ultimate defense against the accidents.

Van Brakes Require Regular Attention; A good informative article about the need to look after your car brakes? although there are many such articles, this is a better one. it shows how important it is to look after your cars brakes and have them serviced at regular intervals.

This also includes VANS? Van Brakes Require Regular Attention

Vans are often filled to their capacity and the brakes are used much more and faster than the average cars brakes. So if you are a van driver, then make sure that you have your brakes checked at regular intervals. Van brakes can wear down much faster, and are put under much more road stress than say, the regular family car.

I am not accusing van owners of neglect, but they are often pushed to the limit by their delivery schedules. I presume that the large fleets of vans, such as parcel companies, have some sort of night service scheme. Any brake problems can then would be corrected through the night, before it was loaded.

The other scenario is the one man driver owner.

Here at Pellon Autocentre, in Halifax UK, we try to give our van driving customers a quick turn round. This saves them some time? The only problem is that Van Brakes Require Regular Attention. When the servicing

times have been stretched it usually means that the brakes will be in a bad way, when they are finally examined.

Worn brake pads lead to worn worn out brake discs,

if they are left too long without any brake examination. Worn brake discs can then lead to seized up brake calipers, or worn out and leaking brake cylinders. Deteriorated, brake cylinders then lead to contaminated brake shoes and less efficient braking.

Van drivers and car drivers should be fully aware of having un-safe and dangerous brakes, so the message is have them checked at regular intervals.

Checking Your Tyre Pressures

Checking your tyre pressures.

Checking Your Tyre Pressures

90% of vehicles that visit our centres have the incorrect tyre pressure. Here’s our guide for how to check: https://t.co/A3iPzBrR2B

What if I don’t know my tyre pressure?
This is one of the enquiries I receive from some of my clients at Pellon Tyres in Halifax, Yorkshire, United Kingdom.

Apart from the internet, vehicle car manufacturers often place the tyre pressures in three locations of the car.

Here are the three places:

Finally, you can find the vehicle’s handbook in the driver’s door frame as well as the petrol/diesel cap.
If you are in the Halifax area, then we will always supply details when checking your tyre pressures. We recommend, though, that you keep your own tyre pressure gauge as part of your cars tool kit.

They are only small items and can even be kept with your locking wheel nuts under the dash. Gauges are on offer at most car accessory stores and also from Michelin and the road safety organizations, here in the UK we have the AA and the RAC.

I can also give you drivers a few simple tips that you should remember about tyre pressures and inflating your tyres.

a. Always keep your valve caps in a safe place when inflating and checking your tyre pressures. if the caps are cracked or broken, then replace them with new ones.
b. Try not to damage the thread on your tyre valves. Some valves are Tyre Pressure Motoring Systems and if damaged are expensive to replace. So do not force the tyre pressure gauge or the air-line onto the tyres valve and damage the thread.
c. Always check the tyre pressures when the tyres are cool preferably before you start a journey.

Heat builds up in the tyres and they will give the wrong reading when checking your tyre pressures.
d. Check each tyre more than once to ensure that you have a good fit between the tyres valve and the pressure gauge.

Any good tyre centre will carry out checking your tyre pressures

free of charge, including us at Pellon Tyres here in Yorkshire, UK. This should also be done FREE of charge.

Winter Pirelli Sottozero Tyres

Cruising the alpine roads of nothing Italy with Winter Sottozero Tyres #ThePerfectFit, and #Maserati.

Winter Sottozero Tyres: This is the stuff that proves the benefits of fitting winter tyres. These top-of-the market sports saloons can really show off when

driven with the correct tyres for the job?

in this case, the Pirelli Sottozero 3 tyres. Italian flare car use Italian flare tyres, a great combination. Pirelli also produces many other great winter tyre products, including the one in the picture, the Scorpion Ice winter tyre.

The Winter Sottozero Tyres

are a product that has been developed by Pirelli tyres to fit the super car range, including this Maserati. These cars are well equipped to speed down the German motorway system at 150 MPH and then drive up the snow-covered mountain roads that lead to the ski resorts in Austria and Switzerland.

For small to medium cars, then the Pirelli Cinturato All season is the tyre for them. This tyre can be left on the car all year. If, however, you live in a more northern area with heavy snowfalls, then i would suggest that you go for the Scorpio Ice and Snow tyre.

This tyre is a more aggressive tyre

in the snow and ice of countries such as Norway and Sweden, which are likely to witness very harsh winters. These recommendations are, of course, aimed at the driver who is a complete Pirelli tyre fan. Other tyre brands are just as good but Pirelli have a very good name and a large following

The more up-to-date type of vehicle driver would own an SUV. it is most advisable to fit all-weather or winter tyres to these vehicle, as most of them are useless in bad weather. For this reason, Pirelli advises the Scorpion Winter.

WHY ROTATE TYRES

March 27, 2025 Eric Leave a comment

WHY ROTATE TYRES

Why rotate tires? Next to inflating your tires to the proper air pressure, tire rotations are an easy and inexpensive way to extend the life of your tire.

WHY ROTATE TYRES

Tyre rotation, became very popular when the radial tyres first came out. Hence, it was a way of increasing tyre life. Because, wheel alignment machines were not very accurate and difficult to use. Tyre care has evolved with the development of the wheel alignment machines.

Therefore, we are now more likely to have a wheel alignment

than to have the wheels rotated. Of course, it is easy to rotate the wheels of your car when it is in for a service. In my opinion, we should rotate the wheels and then carry out a wheel alignment.

Consequently, when a tyre wears out on one side

, changing the wheels around will not correct the tyre wear. Because it is the casing that deforms. This wears out the tread unevenly. We have all seen our tyres worn out at the edges, with perfectly good tread in the centre of the tyre.

In my opinion,

The damage has been done, and this tyre will not be corrected by switching it around. In this case, all I would do is have the car’s wheel alignment corrected.

So if you have time to change your wheels around,. Of course, you should re-check the tyre pressures and have a new wheel alignment carried out

Winter Tyres Tweet,

The moment when you realise you should have bought winter tyres #scottishwinter #winteriscoming https://t.co/Df8PNOBBbK

Eric Roberts sourced through Scoop.it

This is the problem? it is often too late if you did not get prepared for bad weather before the winter. Many drivers simply get caught out, when the snow arrives unexpectedly. This Winter Tyres Tweet shows the point.

I also think that it is the younger generation of drivers, who seam to be the ones caught out? I think it may be the “it will never happen to me scenario”. It is important to fit winter tyres before the onset of winter, then you know that you will be much safer, and winter can throw all it wants at you, at least you will stand a chance.

I am convinced that the tyre trade

are not targeting young drivers when it comes to teaching about tyre safety. As the owner of Pellon Tyre in Halifax, UK, i am finding it more common for young drivers to make tyre-related mistakes that only slight observations would correct.
This includes running on tyres that are completely bald and well over the legal limit. many young drivers, including married and single people, do not appear to know or just do not want to know anything about

the car, especially the tyres?
This brings me back to winter tyres. Any driver who fits winter tyres on a regular basis, knows how much safer it is to drive about in winter weather.

Even in heavy rain,

Hence, the driver will feel much safer. Especially with a good set of winter tyre fitted to their car. You can handle anything that a British winter can throw at you.
Some of these young drivers are driving around without any tread. Scarily, on their summer tyre, never mind winter tyres.

Winter Tyres tweets from these drivers. hence, are also the ones that take the risks on bends and speeding on our roads. This is combined with bald tyres.

Consequently, this is a recipe for disaster.

Unfortunately, this is what happens. How often do we see a car on its roof in a ditch? too often, many would say.
So lets target young drivers with more education about tyre safety and the use of winter tyres.

Tyre Inspection Imperative

Tyre Inspection Imperative

Why do tyres need regular inspections?

Tyre Inspection Imperative

In today’s fast and furious road and driving conditions,. Hence, it has never been as important for you to check your tyres. As a result, on a regular basis,. The banner title is “Tyre Inspection Imperative.”. Therefore, this has never been a truer statement.

Many of our customers do not realise this. What are the effects of just one of their tyres. What effect can a loss of pressure have on the handling of cars. We had a guy in the other week. Who openly admitted that he had a screw in his tyre. Of course, he was pumping it up every week for the past six weeks.

That is ridiculousness ? Tyre Inspection Imperative

He thought he was doing the correct thing , but I wonder how long he had been travelling on the motorway with a tyre that only had half the pressure in it. In my opinion, if i have ever had a car with a partially deflated tyre, then the car never handles correctly and is difficult to control, constantly pulling to the side where the partially deflated tyre is.

Some of the worst culprits that i have seen have been van drivers.

They just do not correct the tyre pressures when their vans are fully loaded? in the worst cases, you can see that the driver is struggling to keep the van in a straight line.

In many cases, Tyre Inspection Imperative

the van driver must have a tyre blowout just because of the heavy load combined with too little air pressure in the tyres. So the tyre inspection is imperative, warning should be taken seriously at all times, and a safer journey will be the result.

A must-watch video about the importance of checking your tyres? good visual aids have been added to make the video easy to understand, making it great for young people just starting to learn the ropes about driving and road safety, including the very important tyres.

UK Tyre Safety

run-flat tyres — Changing a wheel could be a thing of the past?

UK Tyre Safety: It is important to remember that correct tyre care and maintenance are essential for your road safety and tyre life.https://t.co/LfYlJzaPne

As a lifelong worker in the tyre industry. Then it seems crazy that we in the industry have to keep going on about Tyre Safety. Yet figures show the number of road accidents.Thus, due to tyre problems, they are rising.

One of the main factors has to be the sheer volume of traffic that we now have driving about on the roads of this relevantly small island. We only have to drive to work and back each day to realise how much the traffic levels have grown.

Although I only tend to write about UK,

Tyre Safety concerning cars and vans should also include any other road vehicle, such as trucks and coaches.

According to accident figures then the main reason for your vehicle having an accident is because your tyres are below the legal limit, (very little tread). The current legal limit in most European countries is 1.6 mm from the centre of the tread outwards.

The chance of having an accident

also increases significantly if the road that you are driving on is wet. You would think that this was common sense? But NO? Drivers still think it is a good idea to keep their tyres on until they have a last slither of rubber on the tread. It often also goes further than this and tyres are not replaced until they are completely “Bald”.

UK Tyre Safety

This now brings into play the use of winter tyres. It proves that winter tyres are a great benefit to drivers in all bad weather countries, including us here in the UK. Snow is not the main culprit in accident’s, but WET roads combined with little tread are the thing that drivers must learn about and put into use to make their cars a safer place in inclement driving conditions.

Tyresafe do great work promoting the important role that tyres play in road safety?
