Your tyres are the only point of contact between your vehicle and the road, making them one of the most important safety components on your car or van.

Correct tyre maintenance is essential for safe driving.

Regular tyre inspections can help identify problems before they become costly or dangerous.

Tyre Safety Checks

As part of our tyre inspections, we check:

• Tyre tread depth

• Tyre pressures

• Uneven tyre wear

• Sidewall damage

• Cracks, bulges, and cuts

• Tyre age and condition

• Valve condition

• Wheel balance concerns

Maintaining the correct tyre pressure is important for both safety and fuel economy. Underinflated tyres can wear more quickly, increase fuel consumption, and affect handling, while overinflated tyres can reduce grip and cause uneven wear.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the legal minimum tyre tread depth?

The legal minimum tread depth in the UK is 1.6mm across the central three-quarters of the tyre and around the entire circumference. However, many safety organisations recommend replacing tyres before they reach this limit to maintain optimum grip, especially in wet conditions.

How often should I check my tyre pressures?

We recommend checking tyre pressures at least once a month and before long journeys. Correct tyre pressures help improve safety, tyre life, and fuel efficiency.

Can low tyre pressure affect fuel economy?

Yes. Driving with tyres below the recommended pressure can increase rolling resistance, causing your vehicle to use more fuel.

Why are my tyres wearing unevenly?

Uneven tyre wear can be caused by incorrect tyre pressures, wheel alignment issues, worn suspension components, or steering faults. Our technicians can identify the cause and recommend the appropriate repair.

Can a damaged tyre be repaired?

In many cases, punctures can be repaired safely depending on their location and the condition of the tyre. We will always inspect the tyre and advise on the safest option.
