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.

Your situation
You drive a KIA Sportage IV, produced from 2016, requiring 225/60 R17 103V tyres. South Yorkshire has 118 days below 7°C, 50 frost days and 15 days of snowfall. Ice risk is moderate, with 135 rainy days and some relief.
Summer, winter or all-season
Your selected preference—two sets, summer and winter—is the strongest option here. The local comparison gives summer/winter sets three stars for rain, road holding, light snow and mountain snow, versus one star for all-season tyres.
With 118 cold days and moderate ice risk, 3PMSF-certified winter tyres are relevant. Changing around November and March is indicated. The Mountain Law does not apply, and winter tyres are not compulsory in the UK, but the weather data supports their use.
Mileage and running cost
At 10,000–20,000 km per year, both durability and fuel efficiency matter. Alternating two sets distributes annual use between them. For summer, the Michelin combines fuel label B with strong economy and ecology scores. Among winter choices, the Bridgestone offers the best stated economy score and a B fuel label.

Points to watch
Wet and icy roads increase braking distances; adapt speed and leave more space. Maintain pressure according to the vehicle requirements and check it regularly. Rotate tyres where appropriate and plan the November/March seasonal change. Keep the specified 103V load and speed indices.
