Tyres that don’t meet the minimum standard will cause a car to fail it’s MOT. They are also a key factor in car crashes caused by lack of control. It’s important that you understand the condition of your tyres at all times and have them replaced when needed. Most front tyres should be replaced after 20,000 miles with rear tyres being replaced every 40,000 miles. Our mechanics can help you identify these issues and provide clear, fair quotes for tyre replacement. Get in contact with Axminster Autos today for your tyre-related needs.
In average conditions, your front tyres should last around 20,000 miles. As your rear tyres take on less of the strain during driving, they can last up to 40,000 miles.
For your tyres to be road legal, the tread needs to measure 1.6mm minimum. You can use a 20p coin to check this – if the raised edge is covered then pushed into your tread, your tyres are likely to be fine.
It’s not always necessary to have tyres changed in pairs. However, this is the ideal situation as it ensures you have even tread on both sides.
This information can be found on the tyre itself. Additionally, the information can be found in your car manufacturers manual.
As well as running the risk of punctures and accidents, driving without roadworthy tyres can result in a fine of up to £10,000.
