Should I be checking my tyres in between services?
With extended service intervals on modern cars, checking wear and tear items,
such as tyres, has become an expected part of the vehicle owner's
responsibility. The tyres on your car are arguably its most important safety
feature. They are the sole point of contact between your car and the road, and
should ideally be checked on a weekly basis - but in reality how many of us
actually do this?
How likely is it that my tyres need checking?
A report published by the AA - "Get a grip" estimates that 1 in 10 British
motorists drive with at least one tyre that is illegal. The accepted legal
minimum is 1.6mm tread depth, but at this point your tyres are putting you and
other road users at greater risk. Independent research shows that worn tyres
significantly increase the risk of an accident in the wet.
It is recommended you
change your tyres when the tread depth reaches 3mm, which gives 25% better
performance, or typically 8 metres of stopping distance in wet conditions at
50mph*, when compared to tyres with the legal minimum of tread.
Spratley's offer a free tyre check and advise on the condition and tread depth
of your tyres. Furthermore we offer expert advice on the right tyre for your
car.
