Eco Info
What your tyre choice really means for the environment.
Rolling resistance accounts for approximately 20% of a vehicle's fuel consumption. Moving from a Class C to a Class A on the European label represents up to 0.3 l/100 km saved, or several hundred kg of CO₂ avoided over the lifespan of the set of tyres.
Durability is the second lever: a tyre that lasts 20% longer reduces raw materials consumed and waste generated by the same amount. Correct pressure (monthly check), a timely swapped set, and healthy alignment extend tyre life much more effectively than any rubber choice.
Wear particles and rolling noise complete the picture: tyres with the best noise rating (dB) and the most abrasion-resistant compounds limit non-exhaust emissions, which are becoming the main source of pollution from electric vehicles.
Optimal energy efficiency: optimize your fuel consumption and reduce the cost per kilometre of your vehicles.

- Dimension : 235/40 R 18 95Y

Your situation
You drive a 2006–2015 Volkswagen Eos. The specified tyre size is 235/40 R18 95Y: 235 mm width, 40 profile, 18-inch rim, load index 95 and speed rating Y.
In Buckinghamshire, conditions include 108 days below 7°C, 42 frost days, moderate ice risk and 9 days of snowfall. Rainfall is stated as 125, with some relief. These conditions justify dedicated seasonal performance.
Summer, winter or all-season
Your selected preference—two sets of summer and winter tyres—is the strongest option in the supplied comparison. Summer/winter sets receive three stars for rain and handling, versus one star for all-season tyres. They also score better in light snow (two versus one star) and mountain snow (three versus one star).
There is no Mountain Law requirement, and no UK obligation is indicated. However, the number of cold and frost days supports winter tyres from around November, followed by summer tyres around March, as stated in the local summary.
Mileage and running costs
At more than 20,000 km per year, durability and efficiency are important. The supplied running-cost indicators are €€€ for summer, €€ for winter and €€ for all-season. No actual prices or expected tyre lifespan are provided, so a precise cost-per-kilometre comparison is not possible.
Using two sets spreads annual wear between them. Regular pressure checks and rotation can also support even wear and efficiency.

Points to watch
Wet and cold braking performance remains essential. Check tyre pressures regularly and rotate tyres to limit uneven wear. The winter options have a V speed rating rather than Y; confirm compatibility with a professional before fitting. This guidance is indicative and does not replace professional advice.
