Tyre sizes can be a little daunting if you don't know what to look for, so this page will guide you through the information you need to know when chosing the right tyre for your vehicle.
The easiest way to find out the correct sizing is to check the tyre that needs to be replaced. It will have a series of numbers and letters on the side which will follow a similar format to the example below.
This can be broken down as follows:
Look for ‘tread wear indicator bars’ on your tyres. These are small bumps set into the main grooves which indicate the minimum legal tread. Change your tyres before your tread gets this low. The minimum legal tread is 1.6mm, but any less than about 3mm may be a problem in wet or icy conditions.
Buy a hand-held tyre pressure gauge and check your tyres’ pressure every week when tyres are cold. The correct pressure will be written in your vehicle’s hand book.
Check tyres for cracks, worn patches and bulges. If you find any, please consult Mobile Tyres Direct for further expert advice.
We have teamed up with a local company: Wrong Fuel Services to provide fuel drains for anyone who has put the wrong fuel in their car. We are therefore able to also offer this service to our customers. So, if you need a fuel drain, call us, or Wrong Fuel SOS directly.
