A great instagraph explaining the reasons also showing the tyre markings this is well worth a look at?

Tyre-wall markings are there for the benefit of us all?

It still astounds me that 75% of drivers that come into my tyre business, do not know what size tyres they have on their cars. I also know that many of our customers do like us to check the size for them.

This applies to the lady drivers especially.
I think that it is understandable that ladies should not have to bend or kneel to check their tyre size. This applies in winter time more than anything, but we do understand this and would never let a lady have to check her own tyre size.
Male customers do have more knowledge about these things and I think it is about 50/50 of men who know their tyre size and where to find it.


It is important when ordering online that you look at the following information about your tyre size.

Our own website at www.pellontyres.co.uk has a facility for entering your car registration, but this is not always accurate, and it is best to double check it with the size of the tyres that you can find on the tyre-wall markings.

This online information is important because the internet is the best place to buy cheap car tyres.
The following information is about the 20555R16 91W tyre size, which is the most common size of tyre at the moment.

Tyre-Wall Markings

tyre- wall markings

• 205 This is the width of the tyre and is measured in millimetres


• 55 This is the “aspect ratio” of the tyres. Although it sounds complicated, it means the    height of the sidewall as a percentage of the tyre width. In this size, the aspect ratio is 55%, hence the 55.


• R Stands for radial


• 16 is the measurement of the diameter of the tyres inner rim in inches; in this case, 16 inch.


• 91 is the load rating of the tyre. This is calculated from a table issued by the tyre manufacturer and simply means the maximum weight that the tyre should carry; in the case of this tyre size, it would be 615 kilogrammes.


• W This is the speed rating of tyre. It indicates the maximum speed that the tyre should achieve when fully loaded. The W rating can go up to 168 mph and is once again available on a speed rating chart that is supplied by the tyre manufacturers.


• A more recent mark that you can see on the tyre-wall markings is “E4” This is the European type approval marking to show that this tyre has been tested to the highest standards before being sold in the European Union.
These are no doubt the most important tyre-wall markings for the regular motorist to know about. It is also important to match your original tyres to the same numbers that are on your car.

Tyre-Wall Markings

Never fit tyres that are below the speed and load ratings. Remember that tyres are tested to a very high standard, and it is important that you observe these rules.

If you have any doubts, call in to see your local tyre retailer, who will be only too pleased to help you.

Goodyear Efficient Grip Tyres can make fuel-efficient tyres?

Making more fuel-efficient tyres is nothing new. As the owner of my own tyre business for as long as I can remember, I know that in the past years, tyre companies have been made to look for other resources to make tyres out of.

The one that sticks out in my mind was the blockade of the Suez Canal in the late 1960s. This is the main route for the giant oil tankers from east to west with their giant cargoes of oil.

The world was in turmoil ?

All sorts of ideas were branded about “how governments could save money.”. This had an impact on tyres and other rubber products, forcing tyre manufacturers to try and come up with new ideas.

In my opinion, this was the rise of budget tyres, and car retread tyres also became popular.The 1970’s brought changes in tyre designs, including the invention of the safety tyre in 1972 by the Dunlop Tyre Company. T

Goodyear Efficient Grip

This was a great breakthrough. Thus, it meant that the tyre would seal itself  after having a puncture. Hence, it is caused by a nail or screw. Another breakthrough. Therefore, it was discovered that sipes in the tyre tread would make the tyre safer. Especially in freezing and bad winter weather.

This now made it possible to make tyres with much less aggressive tread patterns, and tyres with less aggressive tread patterns were much quieter .The largest change and the point that I am getting at bring me to 1973. The oil price problem was one of the reasons that the American car industry switched to radial tyres.

This was the biggest tyre market in the world, and the changes were made purely for fuel economy and would have saved billions of dollars due to the extra miles that the cars would drive by using radial tyres.

Goodyear Efficient Grip tyres are now one of the latest tyre products to come out of an oil crisis. There will be many more in the near future, although the price of oil has dropped considerably. Who knows?

Continental Tyres Ten Reasons

Continental Tyres Ten Reasons were first made in Hanover, Germany

Continental Tyres Ten Reasons

Continental Tyres Ten Reasons
Continental Tyres Ten Reasons

Continental made soft rubber products and solid tyres for the first bicycles and horse-drawn carriages. In 1892, the company started to make the first Pneumatic tyres in Germany.

  • Continental tyres were the first to have a tread pattern. This was for added grip, and it was already clear that the German tyre company were becoming very innovative.
  •  In 1905, not long after the addition of a tread pattern,. Continental invented the anti-skid tyre, which was a forerunner the studded snow tyres that we are familiar with today.
  • Continental tyres celebrated their 50th anniversary. They were to be the first German tyre company to add textiles to the tyre product with the addition of cord casing onto the market. Linen was the material that was used before this new method. This discovery was now to be replaced with a more workable cord-fibre fabric. At the same time, they started to make large pneumatic-fit trucks.
  •  In 1926, carbon black was to be introduced into the tyres compound. This would give the tyres more strength and make them last longer. Once again, Continental were a leader in innovation and strove to make a better product. Continental Tyres Ten Reasons
  • Had already been involved in early motorsport events. In the mid-1930, racing tyres were fitted to Auto-Union and Mercedes racing cars with four straight wins in the German Grand Prix.
  • They also were beating numerous speed records. Their tyres were proving to be of exceptional quality even in the early years.
  • The war years saw very little movement from Continental production. But in 1945, production resumed after permission from the British government. In 1955, Continental started producing the “tubeless tyres” that would be fitted to most cars.
  • Bringing things more up-to-date. 1979 would see Continental buying American tyre company Uniroyal. Thus, gave Continental a much larger base in Europe, of course, including the Uniroyal tyre buyout. This would be the start of the German tyre maker. Therefore, it is becoming so common here in the UK.
  • The 1980s would see more acquisitions, with the purchase of General tyres in America and a cheap tyre brand from Portugal called Mabor tyres. Both Mabor and General were well-known brands here in the UK.
  •  Continental tyres then bought a large share of Czech tyre company Barum, another famous budget tyre brand, along with 50 tyre dealer outlets.
  • At this stage, they were well known all across Europe and not only here in the UK. They had amassed more than 2000 tyre retailers across 18 European countries and were now becoming contenders for the largest tyre company in the World, a feat that they later achieved.

Continental Tyres Ten Reasons . are no doubt the world’s biggest tyre innovators. They have put billions of Euros into tyre research and development.

Wheel-Alignment-Have it Done

Correct wheel alignment will improve handling, road holding, safety, tyre life and fuel consumption pic.twitter.com/V8jytQKBDN

Win Campbell is a well-known tyre expert in the Northeast of England in the UK. Like myself, he is a big fan of having your wheel alignment checked, especially when you fit new tyres.

Wheel-Alignment- Have it Done

Reasons to Inspect Your Car’s Wheel Alignment

Hi everyone! Let’s talk about wheel alignment today, which is something that is frequently disregarded yet is crucial to maintaining the best possible condition for your vehicle. It may not sound as thrilling as a turbocharger or new alloy wheels, but trust me—it’s important for both your pocketbook and safety.

Wheel Alignment: What Is It? Wheel-Alignment-Have it Done

Let us first define what wheel alignment really is. To put it simply, it’s ensuring that the wheels on your car are positioned at the precise angles recommended by the manufacturer. These angles have an impact on the way your tires contact the pavement. You’d prefer to avoid a number of issues that can arise from misaligned wheels.

Why Does Wheel Alignment Matter?

1. Life of a Tyre– Wheel Alignment- Have it Done

Increasing the longevity of your tyres is one of the key benefits of having your wheels adjusted. Tyre wear can be uneven due to misaligned wheels, which means you’ll need to replace them much sooner than you might have anticipated. Furthermore, tyres are not inexpensive! The cost of a wheel alignment check is negligible when compared to the price of new tyres.

2. Enhanced Management-Wheel-Alignment-Have it Done

When you’re driving on a straight road, have you ever noticed your automobile pulling to one side? It is a well-known indication of misalignment. When the wheels are aligned properly, your car will handle correctly and react nicely to steering input. Not only does this increase driving enjoyment, but it also makes driving safer.

3. Enhanced Fuel Economy

You can save money by using matched wheels, which can increase your fuel efficiency. Your car needs to work harder to go ahead when its wheels are out of alignment, which increases fuel consumption. Thus, correct alignment not only prolongs the life of your tyres but also reduces your fuel costs.

4. Prioritising safety: wheel alignment; have it Done

The last and most significant factor that affects your safety is wheel alignment. Misaligned wheels can have an impact on your car’s handling and brake performance, especially in cold or rainy weather. Frequent alignment checks guarantee that your vehicle is safe to operate and will keep you and your passengers out of danger.

When Is a Wheel Alignment Necessary? Wheel-Alignment-Have it Done

Having your wheel alignment checked at least once a year, or around every 6,000 miles, is the ideal schedule. Getting it checked is also a good idea if you run into a pothole or curb, since these may easily cause your wheels to come off-align. Of course, you should always have the alignment checked before getting new tyres installed.

Final Thoughts

To sum up, routine wheel alignment checks make perfect sense. They enhance your car’s handling, save you money on fuel and tyres, and—above all—keep you safe while driving. Thus, request that your mechanic examine your wheels the next time you’re in for maintenance or see any indications of misalignment. Both your wallet and your car will appreciate it!

Wheel-Alignment-Have it Done

This is one of the most common two words that you hear in most tyre depots across the UK: “wheel alignment.”
I am pleased that, in recent years, the public has gotten used to the idea. We try to encourage all drivers who get new tyres to get a wheel alignment done at the same time.

Wheel-Alignment-Have it Done
Wheel-Alignment-Have it Done


Believe it or not, it does save you money

in the long run, mainly in tyre wear. Not only that, but your car will feel more comfortable to drive as well. One of the most common problems we encounter on a daily basis is drivers complaining about their vehicles pulling to the left or right.
This is due mainly to the car driving over a pothole or hitting a curb when parking.

This throws the vehicle’s Wheel-Alignment- Have it Done

alignment off. This is what I mean by “better driving comfort.” The car becomes more difficult to drive because it is always pulling in one direction or another. It feels like your steering wheel is not straight. In fact, with the steering wheel straight, the wheel alignment needs to be re-adjusted.
I hope that is a bit clearer.

Cheap Fuel Costs

Sales of the Nissan Leaf and other electric cars have dipped thus far in 2015, and automakers have resorted to price cuts to boost interest in plug-ins.

I did not think for one minute that the sales of electric cars would hold  up went he petrol prices came down. Cheap Fuel Costs are to blame.

Motorists think with their pockets?

If there is any way the motoring public. Hence, can save money on their motoring costs then they will. Accordingly, you have only to look at the large volume of part worn tyres. So, that are sold today to see that. For this reason, drivers will always try to save money. Wherever possible. In fact, they will travel miles to save a few pence per gallon.

I remember when we had previous fuel shortages, the Suez crisis, sticks in my mind. There was all sorts of talk from governments about the environment and how that horrible oil could be replaced, by a greener alternative. What happened?

Cheap Fuel Costs

As soon as it was all over and the price of fuel dropped we all went back to our old habits and the green thing was forgotten about.

I suspect that something like this will happen again with perhaps a few technologies sticking with us. I like the idea of the hydrogen fuel cars and the EV’s with a battery and a petrol engine to carry out the journey when the battery power ran out.

With the fuel price dropping again- Cheap Fuel Costs

the fickle public are reverting back to the cheapest cars, using the cheapest fuels and are not really concerned about the environment. The governments have warned us about the environment, but i do not think that we trust them any more.

www.pellonautocentre.com/blog

All drivers have been penalized in the past years. Especially, with high fuel prices. Cheap gas (petrol) has now returned and is a bonus to us all. Many car owners think very short term when choosing to buy a new car. My belief is that car owners are starting to shun the more expensive electric cars.

Because the  cheap fuel is the main reason.

The problem is that it only takes a world incident to force the prices up again, but many people only think about today. it is going to be a problem for the car makers to solve this problem, unless they bring down the price of the Electric cars and other technology driven cars.

Consumer Reports drives the 2016 Toyota Mira

—on the hydrogen highway. The promise of free fuel for three years makes this fuel-cell car an intriguing option.

This is one of my best bets for the car of the future.

Hence, along with the battery-driven car,. Toyota have indeed spent millions of dollars. Thus developing the Mira. Which are expected to travel 300 miles. So using a fuel that consists of high-pressure hydrogen gas. As expected, the gas will be stored in two fibreglass  fuel tanks.

This will give the Toyota Mira a big advantage over the battery driven Lithium-Ion cars,

The hydrogen fuel. Therefore, is expected to be eventually rolled out. Therefore, onto conventional filling stations. Thus, across Europe and the USA, including Japan. The car will fill up in a similar manner to LPG cars are now, and only take a few minutes to fill.

Department of Energy (DOE) are looking

at setting up a network of Hydrogen fuel stations across America. H2USA are looking at the financial implications and costs of setting up a network.

http://h2usa.org/why-hydrogen

My own opinion is that all the new technologies

will be battling it out for the most cost effective solution to fuels for cars of the future. Crude oil prices, will still have a say in the matter. As new oil fields are still being found.

Even in the UK. We have found new oil reserves in the county of Kent. I do believe that the fuels such as hydrogen that could run along the same infrastructure as petrol (gasoline), will be the more successful fuel.

The sales of battery driven cars are already falling because of the massive drop in petrol prices so the regular driver is only concerned about his pocket and not the environment.

Tyre Awards-For Continental Tyres

Continental really are a top tyre company, with many quality achievements and top tyre test results, winning some of the top tyre awards.

Continental tyres are second to none as far as research and development go. They are always contributing to environmental issues . Trying out new ideas and using different products to replace the dirty oil-based materials. These are the bad materials that cause greenhouse gases.

Continental also support women’s football.

Continental Tyres is supporting their third season of sponsorship. The FA WSL, and would you believe it, they have committed themselves to a further  four years of support. Hence, from 2014–2018 to partner the women’s game.

This also includes support to the  England Women’s Team. The FA Women’s Cup,  and the newly extended  FA WSL and The FA WSL Continental Cup.  In addition, Continental will continue to support The FA Girls Football Festivals. A national programme to increase participation at grassroots level.

This brings me onto the next football story on a more local level.

Continental have contributed and large number of training vests and warm up kits. As well as training aids to one of our local ladies open age football teams. The under tens girls team of the Tingley Athletic football club here in Yorkshire UK.

Continental Tyres and Pellon Tyre & Auto Centre Ltd support Grass roots football
The Tingley U10s Girls received a Continental warm-up Kit to boost their training supplies this week after a kind donation by Continental. Debbie Bastow, who manages the Open Age Ladies team at Tingley,.

She also works at Pellon Tyre & Auto Centre Ltd.- Tyre Awards-For Continental Tyres

Halifax. It was agreed after a meeting recently with the Continental representative. He said that he would be happy to continue their ongoing support with grassroots football by giving a warm up kit. The kit consists of bibs, balls, cones, bag and pop up goal.
Nicola Smith who manages the U10s, has been doing a great job this season. The team is growing in confidence and skills.

They are currently looking for new players to join next season and will be training throughout the summer. They play in the West Riding Junior Girls Football League.

They generally have matches every weekend. It is a good thing when giant companies like Continental tyres can take time out to help the female game at a local level.

Car Tyres are NOT created equally. Practical Motoring

When it comes to changing your tyres, you can’t have everything, good grip, long-lasting and cheap – not all tyres are created equal.

Source: practicalmotoring.com.au

A good article as usual from practical motoring. It is not rocket science to know that you cannot have a perfect tyre.

When customers buy cheap tyres, then they are only going to get what they pay for?

Cheap tyres will not last as long as a premium brand

such as Continental tyres. Tyre companies such as Continental have put over 100 years of technology and research and development into their products. Budget Car tyres from mainly China are made from mass production facilities, with quantity and not quality in mind.

Buying your car tyres?

Like any purchase that we make, whatever it is then there will be differences in price and quality of the product that you buy.

Buying your car tyres?

Like any purchase that we make, whatever it is then there will be differences in price and quality of the product that you buy.

Car tyres are no exception to this rule?

In general you have a choice of three different types of tyres, the Budget car tyres, the mid-range tyres and the premium car tyres. A very good point to make about choosing tyres is that there are no real grey areas.

What I mean is that when you buy say clothing, perhaps a new coat, then it is difficult to really know the quality ratio to the price that you pay. You can go to M&S a buy a new pair of trousers then you could pay a high price for something that is made in a huge factory in China.


Car tyres are more specific.

Most motorists have heard of the premium tyre manufacturers. Hence, companies such as Continental, Michelin, Avon and Goodyear. Traditionally, have all been about for well over 100 years. These car tyres will always give you top quality performance and will be long wearing.

There are diversities within this. Of course, you will always find someone who was not satisfied with their mileage or road holding. But in general the leading tyre makers make a very good product.
The premium tyre companies have put over a hundred years into research and development. So, to help create today’s excellent products. The down side is that you will have to pay more. Consequently, these car tyres are often more expensive.

Mid-range car tyres

These are the tyres that are from the up and coming tyre companies of the world, such as Kumho, Hankook, Apollo and Yokohama tyres. These tyre companies also offer an excellent product. They are relatively new tyre companies from the past 20 years and emanate from the east, South Korea and India.

These tyre companies produce a good tyre are not very far behind the premium tyre companies, both in quality and in their marketing efforts. This tyre would be the choice of the undecided motorist who are careful with their money, lady customers will very often choose a mid-range tyre.


Cheap car tyres


This is the final category before slumping to part worn tyres. These tyres are made by various tyre companies. Some are in fact made by the premium tyre companies and would be my choice if I had to buy a

budget car tyre? Michelin make a tyre called the Kormoran tyres. Which are made by the Polish tyre company Stomil Hence, which Michelin. bought/invested in a while back. The tyres are not the same as a Michelin. However, I am sure that Michelin will have had some sort of input into the product.
Other leading tyre makers make similar products and the rest are from Eastern Europe and China. These tyres will not give the mileage and comfort levels of the last two categories’?

They are though a much better choice than part worn tyres and in my own area of Halifax Yorkshire UK, are a very popular choice of tyre and worth buying if you have an older car or just tootle about town.

I hope this helps. If you are not sure which category of tyre fall into then just ask the guy in your local tyre depot.

A tyre manufacturer openly buying into an online tyre business?

In my opinion, this will change the ball game and open the door for all sorts of ducking and diving amongst tyre manufacturers and wholesalers.

Will Michelin now miss the tyre wholesales out of the equation. By going online, they are certainly missing out on the middle man? the tyre wholesalers.

This will be done with a 40% acquisition of the French online tyre retailer “Allpnues”. The online tyre company sold 3 million tyres online last year, which accounts for 7% of the French tyre market.

Michelin to use ATS as the fitting stations

Michelin has also announced that they are going to use their network of ATS tyre depots to carry out their fitting work across Europe.
When I first read the story, I thought that Michelin was just going to supply France and use the French ATS depots, but they say that they will be using all the ATS depots across Europe.

Michelin buys Allpneus
Michelin Number 1

I did notice that some of the local ATS depots were not doing any truck work anymore and have been smartened up for retail, and so this has been a plan of theirs for some time.
One thing is for sure: this will kick off repercussions amongst tyre wholesalers, and there will be a big rush from the other tyre manufacturers to compete on the same lines. This effectively means that Michelin is missing out on the middle man, which at the moment are the big tyre wholesalers.


I can remember years ago when Michelin decided to go into ASDA to sell tyres. Michelin buys Allpneus

This too caused a huge rumpus and I think that it was ATS who eventually stopped the process and Michelin closed down the tyre shops within the supermarket. This time, ATS will be one of the main players and have no complaints.

I also wonder what Michelin will do with other brands that Allpnues also sells? Will they be pushing out their own product? I think so. It is a big investment to make just to sell Dunlop’s and Continentals products.


Whatever happens, it has certainly changed the game, big style? But I can’t help feeling that this is the way to go; it makes good business sense and will cut out the middle man, as I have stated earlier. It could be the start of another dot-com boom, but in the tyre industry, watch this space?

Michelin Agilis Van and Motorhome Tyres

I am still of the opinion that the Michelin tyre product is the best one in the world. Other tyre companies come a close second, such as Continental Tyres, but the radial tyre inventors are still king, in my opinion.
The Michelin Agilis range of tyres is no different and offers excellent quality, both for vans and motorhomes.

The Agilis is kept in high regard by the people who buy these tyres for their vehicles, and this includes the Agilis Camping, which has been specially designed for the drivers of motorhomes.

These tyres are marked up as an M+S tyre

So, this is for when the motor has to park on soft ground or surfaces.
The other Agilis tyres in the range are the 41/51 and 61 Van tyres that have a reputation for big mileages and are original equipment fitments on VW’s and some of the Mercedes range of vans.

Michelin Agilis tyre problems

I have always been the first to say that I have never seen a genuine Michelin FAULTY tyre, until perhaps now?
We recently had a customer call in with his van.

The van was fitted with Michelin Agilis 51 tyres. The guy was experiencing vibrations when driving at about 60 mph. We immediately diagnosed a wheel balancing problem and balanced the wheels accordingly.

michelin agilis
Michelin Agilis shows various stages of the problem

My fitter reported back to me

that the wheels were difficult to balance correctly, but he did the job, and the guy paid and went away. I have learned in the past that if the wheels are not straight for balance, there will be a problem with the tyre.

It can mean that the steel belt is not stable due to some problem with the tread separating from the tyre casing, (the rest of the tyre).
In this case, we have not seen the guy come back yet, but I decided to do some research on some internet forums, because I do believe that the tyres could be faulty?


Other van users have been experiencing problems with the Agilis 51 tyre?

The problems start with balancing issues, followed by bulges developing as the tyre goes out of shape. This is a relatively common problem with tyre companies. Over the length of my career in tyres, but never with Michelin.
A few van drivers were having these problems. But not with the Agilis 61 tyres. Until the guy suffers any more balancing problems. Then this is only my first personal experience with this Michelin problem.

It is possible that the tyres have been misused by the drivers;

We all know what tight schedules the van drivers have to stick to these days. But I just thought it was an interesting topic.
