Just in time for the change of season in spring or winter, some preparations are also due on your car. The right tyres for the upcoming weather conditions are important in order to reach your next destination safely. We are your reliable partner for servicing your car. Make an appointment at one of our four locations for your next tyre change.
Book an appointment today for a stress-free wheel change including storage. Enjoy the convenience of storing your summer or winter tyres safely with us. We guarantee that your tyres will be stored professionally.
Imbalances can be caused, for example, by general wheel wear and increased stress due to road conditions. Potholes put mechanical stress on the rim and can subsequently impair the driving behaviour. The resulting imbalance can cause unpleasant vibrations when driving, which can lead to one-sided wear of the wheels or damage to the vehicle. Typical problems such as uneven tyre wear or vibrations while driving are carefully checked and rectified by our experts.
According to the well-known rule “from O to O”, winter tyres are used from October to Easter and summer tyres from Easter to October. The correct tyres for the respective season ensure the necessary grip and avoid unnecessary dangerous situations. Our service workshop is ready to change your tyres just in time for summer or winter. We change your tyres quickly, cheaply and easily at one of our four locations in Berlin-Brandenburg. In the meantime, we will be happy to store your tyres for you.
Self-check your tyres - our tips:
Choosing the right tyres depending on the season is crucial for the safety and performance of a vehicle. Summer and winter tyres are specially designed for the different conditions that the respective seasons bring with them. While summer tyres are designed for high temperatures and dry roads, winter tyres offer optimum properties for cold conditions and wintry conditions.
Rubber compound:
Winter tyres:
Winter tyres are made of a rubber compound with a higher proportion of natural rubber, which allows them to remain flexible even in cold conditions. This flexibility is crucial for good grip and precise driving behaviour in cold temperatures.
Summer tyres:
Unlike winter tyres, summer tyres are not designed for cold temperatures. Their special rubber compound is designed to perform optimally in warmer conditions. As the tyre is softer, the contact area with the road is larger, which allows heat to be distributed evenly while driving. This promotes grip and improves handling characteristics. At low temperatures, this compound tends to harden quickly, which significantly reduces the tyre’s performance.
Tread pattern:
Winter tyres:
Winter tyres are characterised by deeper and wider tread grooves that have been specially developed to effectively absorb snow. In addition, they are equipped with thousands of tiny incisions on the tread surface, the so-called sipes. These sipes significantly improve grip on snow, slush and ice and help to displace water to prevent aquaplaning.
Summer tyres:
Unlike winter tyres, summer tyres are characterised by their flatter tread and a reduced number of sipes. The flatter profile together with fewer sipes allows summer tyres to maintain close contact with the road surface, which significantly improves performance and handling at higher temperatures.
Tread depth:
Winter ty
res: A minimum tread depth of 4 mm is required by law for winter tyres.
Summer ty
res: A minimum tread depth of 1.6 mm is required by law for summer tyres.
Durability:
Winter ty
res: Due to their numerous sipes and their design for harsh conditions, winter tyres tend to wear faster or more unevenly, depending on the specific driving conditions.
Summer ty
res: Due to their smaller number of grooves and low tread depth, summer tyres are more stable and have a longer service life.

Worn tyres can increase fuel consumption as the engine has to work harder to move the vehicle.
Old tyres lose their elasticity over time, which increases the risk of a tyre burst when exposed to high speeds or temperatures. Regular checks of tyres for signs of ageing can minimise this risk.
