We’ve got some great top tips to help ensure your tyres last for as long as possible.
What you should do is increase the life of your current tyres:
• Keep your tyres pressurised: Tyre pressure can affect the quality of your driving experience as well as how long your tyres can last. We recommend you get your tyre pressure checked at least once a month.
• Balance your wheels: Wheels should be balanced regularly; one way to ensure you do this is by rotating the wheels when you change your car’s oil.
• Avoid potholes: Potholes can easily damage your tyres and alloy wheels, especially if driven over at speed. It’s a good idea to select high quality tyres and avoid potholes altogether if you can.
• Look at the tread wear: Keep on track of wheel alignment is a good way to assess the tread wear of your tyres – keep them legal! One way to look at tread way is by inserting a coin through the wear bars. If the coin’s head is visible through the bar, it’s time to change the tyres.
• Avoid harsh weather exposure: Weather can cause your tyres to perish. Icy winter weather and summer heat can be detrimental to the health of your tyres.
With these top tips, you can keep your tyres lasting for longer so you can get more value from the rims that you have on the wheels.
