Summer tyres - optimal grip guaranteed!
On dry roads or mild weather, your tyres have to face some increased demands and must always meet safety standards. Compared to winter tyres, the rubber mixture of the summer tyres is harder, even in high temperatures. Default rolling resistance and wear are smaller, resulting in a greater lifespan, comfort and increased stability. Choose now from our offer your summer tyres at an affordable price. Our portfolio includes a wide range of tyre brands
 
Identify the size of your tyre
The exact dimensions of a tyre can be found on the sidewall printed mark. The graphic shows how to read properties and dimensions of the tyre:
 
/
SPEED INDEX:
The speed index indicates the maximum speed intended for the tyre. Up to this value, the manufacturer guarantees optimum operation with the appropriate tyre pressure. The maximum speed allowed for this vehicle is given in the vehicle owner's manual; this information can be used to select the appropriate speed index for the tyre. The speed index is the last mark on the sidewall of the tyre.
 
Load Index
Permissible maximum axle load per tyre in kg. To be found in the registration certificate or vehicle registration document or read directly from the tyre (two-digit number). It is permitted to fit a tyre with a higher load index.
 
Driving safety despite puncture
Runflat tyres are puncture-resistant tyres with reinforced sidewalls. This creates the so-called run-flat property. In the event of damage, this allows the vehicle to continue driving up to a distance of approx. 100 km (and even beyond depending on the product) at a maximum speed of 80 km/h, even if the pressure has been completely lost. Run-flat tyres even prevent the tyre rubber from jumping off the rim in the event of a loss of air pressure. A flat tyre is therefore still a flat tyre, but it loses some of its drama. Note: All run-flat tyres are marked with the symbol "RSC" (Runflat System Component) and may only be fitted in vehicles with a functioning air pressure control system!
 
Tyres with increased load capacity
Reinforced tyres are designed for higher loads than normal tyres. They can be identified by the designation 'RF' (reinforced) or also 'XL' or 'Extra Load'. They are used on vans, minibuses, off-road vehicles, etc. However, their mounting alone does not automatically result in higher load capacity but also requires a correspondingly higher air pressure. Furthermore, the load capacity index specified in the vehicle documents continues to apply.
 
Tyres with extra high load capacity
The "C" in the term C tyres stands for "commercial". These tyres are specially designed for commercial vehicles. These can be, for example, lighter trucks, delivery vans, flatbed trucks or panel vans. In other words: vehicles that have to move higher loads at a comparatively lower speed. The multi-ply reinforced C tyres are therefore even more load-bearing than reinforced tyres.
 
Mobility-optimised tyres
A tyre with a sealing layer on the opposite side of the tyre tread. In the event of a puncture (e.g. by a nail), this layer blocks any loss of air, even if the foreign body causing the puncture is still in the tyre. It is not necessary to stop or change the tyres immediately at the roadside.

Semperit summer tyres listen to the customer

Semperit has delivered consistent quality for more than 110 years. The name Semperit comes from Latin, meaning “it always works”. This sums up the company ethos, as they utilise the most rigorous testing methods and strict standards to produce ‘tyres that people like to drive’. Semperit was incorporated into the Continental Group in 1985, which brought about a combination of two of the most competent European tyre manufacturers. High technical expertise comes as standard in all Semperit tyres.

The Semperit summer tyres range

For cars, a firm favourite is the Speed-Life 2, which offers optimal all-round properties for the safest summer driving. Its braking performance on wet roads is outstanding, and its dry handling is excellent. You also get low rolling resistance, meaning more miles to the gallon. The other fantastic option is the Comfort-Life 2, built to handle the bumps and drops with ease. Expect quiet, comfortable rides with optimised handling capabilities and a high resistance to aquaplaning.

The other Semperit summer tyres are in the Van-Life range. The Van-Life tyres is designed for great safety when carrying a heavy load. You get responsive steering and good cornering, as well as quality braking performance even with a high load. Aquaplaning resistance is excellent. If you go with the Van-Life 2, you spend a little extra money but get a truly balanced technical performance, emphasising safety and economy. So you get all the benefits of the Van-Life tyre, but with improved fuel efficiency.

Maintenance features in Semperit summer tyres:

  • Semperit Performance Indicator (SPI) – in order to help avoid the risks associated with reduced tread depth, the SPI feature of the tyre alerts you when wear has made the tyre unsafe for use.
  • Semperit Alignment Indicator (SAI) – this is a feature that enables you to identify incorrect axle configuration to increase the lifespan of your tyres.
