Signs That Your Tyres Need Replacing
Tread Depth: If the tread depth of your tyres is below the legal limit (1.6mm in the UK), it’s time for replacement.
Uneven Tread Wear: Uneven wear patterns across the tire surface, such as cupping, scalloping, or bald spots, indicate alignment issues or suspension problems and necessitate tire replacement.
Cracks or Bulges: Visible cracks, bulges, or bubbles on the sidewall of the tyre suggest internal damage or weakness, requiring immediate replacement to avoid potential blowouts.
Age: Even if tread depth appears sufficient, tyres older than 6 years should be replaced due to rubber degradation, which compromises performance and safety.
Vibration or Shaking: Experiencing vibrations or shaking, particularly at higher speeds, may indicate tire balance issues or tire damage, necessitating replacement.
2 Car Tyre Tips from the Experts Here at FRM Automotive:
1. Tread is important when buying new tyres
The legal requirement for minimum tread depth on your tyres is 1.6 millimetres, across the central 3/4 of the tyre around the complete circumference of the tyre. For safety reasons, it is recommended that you replace your tyres before the legal limit is reached.
2. Clean your car tyres correctly
Be careful with the high-pressure cleaners with cleaning your vehicle! A heated water jet aimed directed at a particular point from close range could cause considerable damage to a tyre. It is recommended to keep the hose at least 20cm away from the tyre. Then work with a fan spray nozzle and constantly move the jet; this also applies with stubborn dirt removal.
