225/45 R17 summer tyres– mixing driving enjoyment and performance
Driving should be fun. And in order to make each road trip memorable, one should depend on a set of reliable, high-quality tyres. In this respect, there are many noteworthy reasons why drivers should pick summer tyres over all-season ones; we’ll briefly outline the main ones. Most European countries have strict regulations concerning winter tyres, and the time when drivers should equip their cars with them. Surprisingly though, there aren’t such requirements for summer tyres, with the exception of Italy. In spite of that, summer tyres are definitely worth the try, since the rubber blend is engineered specifically for warm temperatures. Generally, winter tyres are softer, and due to their lamella profile, their performance on snow and ice is guaranteed. But this serves as a disadvantage in the summer, as abrasion increases, which determines a faster wear and tear. This merely outlines that drivers should focus on investing in decent 225/45 R17 summer tyres, to mix enjoyment with performance.
225/45 R17 summer tyres– what do tests tell us?
To start with, according to a test undergone by the eminent tyre maker Continental, the stopping distance at 15 Celsius degrees is much longer when it comes to winter tyres. In other words, a vehicle equipped with summer tyres will stop eight metres earlier in comparison with winter tyres. This happens on dry roads. On wet roads, it will stop six metres earlier. State-of-the-art 225/45 R17 summer tyres are also engineered so that the rolling resistance is minimised, without affecting the grip in any way. This also has a corresponding influence on the fuel consumption. You may also look at the ADAC summer tyre test 2017 if you want to find out more.

According to the performance tyre test 2017, some tyre models featured outstanding performance. They were categorised by size, and, in the case of 225/45 R17 summer tyres, the overall winner was the Continental ContiSportContact 5.
