Tyres should be replaced when:
• Tread depth approaches the legal limit
• Uneven wear becomes severe
• Sidewall damage is visible
• Age exceeds recommended lifespan
Even if tread appears adequate, tyres older than six years may lose flexibility and grip.
Steering vibration is commonly caused by wheel imbalance.
Other causes may include:
• Worn suspension components
• Damaged tyres
• Alignment issues
Balancing corrects weight distribution within the tyre and wheel assembly.
For most vehicles, replacing tyres in pairs on the same axle is acceptable if remaining tyres are in good condition.
All-wheel-drive vehicles may require more careful matching to avoid drivetrain stress.
Yes.
Incorrect alignment, improper tyre pressure and aggressive tread patterns increase rolling resistance and fuel consumption.
