Check the conditions of your winter tyres before removing them
As you come to the end of the winter season, you should be looking at putting on summer tyres. As the winter season comes to an end you will need to check the condition of the winter tyres to see if they are still good. Once you go below 4 mm of tread depth you will need to change the tyres to new ones when it is time to change back to winter tyres. Since you are only changing the tyres and not the rims, if might be worth to already purchase new tyres and have them fitted on your rims, so that you are storing tyres that are good for use once they will need to be used.
If the winter tyres look worn out, have some damages or that the tread depth is below 4 mm it is time to change the tyres to new ones. You should either choose to have the same tyres brand and model that you currently use, or them go for an improved version. If you go for a better model, make sure that the dimensions will be correct so that you don't buy tyres that are too small. If you already have 195/65/15 winter tyres, then that is what you should be looking for regardless if they are studded or non-studded tyres. This will ensure that your driving properties are not impacted and that you will not have abnormal wear of the tyres.
The advantage of not having to store useless tyres make sense, so if you store your tyres at the tyre service stations storage, then it makes sense to invest in a new set once they are already changing the tyres to summer tyres. IN a similar way if you are planning to bring the tyres home to store them, you are better off is leaving the worn out tyres for them to recycle them. If you buy new tyres or not, you at least are not storing tyres that you will not use again and you can then just store the rims, or then you store brand new tyres that are ready to go once you need them and you don't need to start looking for tyres before the winter arrives when the focus should be on ensuring that you have the tyres on your vehicle before the snow arrives.
Also, your summer tyres that you will mount will need to be in good condition and they need to be balanced and have the correct tyre pressure. If you mount summer tyres that are not in good conditions, your safety will be impacted. The tread depth here should also be above 4 mm, so that you can drive safely and have sufficient braking distance, aquaplaning prevention and grip. Tyre pressure is important, but so is the condition and tread depth, they all work in harmony to create the optimal safety while you drive your car.
