New rule: Why many drivers will soon have to throw away their winter tires. As of: March 31, 2024, 10:56 a.m By: Simon Stock CommentsPressSplit It is possible that they will have to be disposed of.

A new rule will apply from autumn 2024. In 2024, only winter tires with Alpine markings will be permitted. From October 2024, car tires must bear the Alpine symbol. Tires that only have an M+S marking no longer do this. Anyone who still drives such models should exchange them for new ones before winter 2024/25.
