Your Guide To Tyre Fitting
Wondering how long your tyres should last? Then who better to ask than the specialists in tyre fitting Essex car owners recommend! Here is everything you need to know about when to get new tyres fitted, including the warning signs that indicate you could need to get yours changed sooner rather than later.
How Long Should You Wait?
So, how long should you wait before getting new tyres fitted? There are two figures that you need to look out for: every 10 years, or every 20,000 miles. Depending on your typical car usage, you may reach one of these milestones much more quickly than the other. It’s important to remember that a tyre will degrade even when it isn’t being used, with exposure to a wide range of weather conditions being a main factor in this.
Warning Signs
While professionally fitted, high-quality tyres can last for a very long time, there are some signs that you should keep an eye out for. If you notice any of the following, it could be time to get a new tyre fitted:
- Worn-down tread
- Cracks in the rubber
- Air pressure is decreasing at a quicker rate
- You are noticing ‘wobbly’ wheels, particularly at high speeds
Some of these issues can be caused by simple wear and tear and how you store your car, so be sure to follow both the manufacturer and your mechanic’s advice on how to get the most out of your tyres. The issue of wobbly wheels is often indicative of poor wheel alignment, which can cause serious damage to your tyres if it isn’t addressed quickly.
