Compare SEAT winter tyre fitting quotes from specialist garages

SEAT was founded in 1950, back when there were only three vehicles for every 1000 people in Spain. A partnership with Fiat brought the company up to speed with the latest car manufacturing techniques, lasting until 1982 when it was sold to the Volkswagen Group.

SEAT has recently won numerous awards; the SEAT Leon was named Best Family Car at the WhatCar? Car of the Year Awards in 2022, and the Terraco won Best Large SUV the year before. SEAT also has approval from the Vatican - in 1982, it created the Popemobile, which Pope John Paul II used on his visit to Spain.

Using season-specific tyres is the best way to ensure the safety of you and your passengers. All-season tyres are another option, but they don't perform as well as summer and winter tyres in their respective seasons.

Although having two sets of tyres is more expensive initially, it's a long-term investment that ensures you won't have to buy new tyres as often. This is because seasonal tyres have a longer lifespan when used correctly. Check out this guide for advice about the best winter tyres.
