Tyre questions, answered.

Check the air pressure in your tyres weekly, when the tyres are cold.

Yes. Your vehicle is held up by the air chamber inside the tyres, and under-inflation is the most common cause of tyre damage. In severe cases an under-inflated tyre can burst and cause a serious accident.

Check the tyre placard on your vehicle, usually in the glove box, on the driver's door pillar or under the bonnet. It shows the correct size, speed rating and load capacity, and the recommended inflation pressures.

No. Radial and cross-ply tyres handle differently and mixing them can be dangerous. Mixing different sizes or aspect ratios is also unsafe.

Yes. Tyres wear quickly when they are regularly subjected to hard braking or rapid acceleration. A smoother driving style gets the most life out of your tyres.

Yes. Below 1.6mm of tread a tyre may be unsafe in wet conditions and should be replaced.

Poorly fitted tyres can cause vibration, premature failure, poor handling and rapid tread wear.

In many cases heel and toe wear comes from a lack of maintenance, mismatched inflation or driving habits.

Sealants are only a temporary emergency measure. Have the tyre inspected by a professional afterwards, and note that sealants may void the tyre's warranty.
