Need to replace your tyres?
Looking to change your tyres?
Tyres are essential for vehicle safety and performance. The type of tyre you need really depends on your car and the driving you typically do. If you're mostly covering short distances, you'll want to focus on economy and safety when picking a tyre. For those motorway drives and longer trips, comfort and fuel efficiency can play a big role in your choice. If you're behind the wheel of a luxury or sports car, you'll likely be looking for high-performance tyres that provide precision handling, great traction, and superb manoeuvrability.

How to make my tyres last longer?
Keep your tyres in top condition with our 3 step guide.
1. Check your tread depth
The legal minimum tread depth for your tyres is 1.6 millimetres, measured across the central three-quarters of the tread all the way around the tyre. For your safety, it's a good idea to replace your tyres before they reach this legal limit. Regularly checking your tyres can save you from 3 penalty points and a hefty £2,500 fine for having tyres that are worn beyond the legal minimum on your vehicle.
2. Correct tyre pressure
The right tyre pressure really helps maximize grip and extend tyre life, all while reducing emissions and boosting fuel efficiency. Tyre wear can happen for several reasons. It's not just about age and usage—things like emergency braking, under-inflation, or over-inflation can also take their toll. Additionally, poorly maintained roads can easily cause damage. If your wheels aren't properly aligned, one side of the tyre may wear down faster than the other. If you've seen an alert about your tyre pressure on your dashboard or it's been a while since you last checked, it’s a good idea to get them looked at.
3. Tyre Rotation
Tyre rotation is a great way to help minimize tyre wear and extend tyre life. When it comes to replacing tyres, it's best to change all four at once if you can. However, since front and rear tyres wear at different rates, that isn’t always feasible. We suggest fitting new tyres to the rear (when possible) and moving the older tyres to the front.

The minimum legal tyre tread depth is 1.6mm. It's really important to make sure your tyres aren't worn below this limit, as driving with them that way is illegal and could lead to a fine of £2,500 and three penalty points. So, it’s a good idea to check your tyres regularly! And remember, even if you’re just above this limit, your tyre safety might still be at risk.
It's usually a good idea to replace all four tyres at once, but if only one tyre is worn or damaged, it's not always necessary. Sometimes, replacing two tyres at a time—as a pair on either the front or rear axle—can help ensure better handling and grip. We make sure to balance all new tyres when they're fitted to enhance tyre life, improve fuel economy, and provide a smoother ride.
Tyres should be inflated to the levels recommended by your vehicle's manufacturer, which you can find in the vehicle handbook. Over-inflating your tyres can lead to extra wear and a bumpy ride, while under-inflated tyres can increase fuel consumption, wear down the tread shoulders more quickly, and raise the risk of impact damage.
Signs your tyres may need replacing include:
- Increased braking distance, especially in wet weather
- Low tread depth
- Vehicle vibrations
- Cracks in the tyre sidewall
