Tyre maintenance

We recommend you check your vehicle’s tyres at least every two weeks to keep them safe and road legal.

Recommended tyre pressures vary by manufacturer and can be found in the vehicle handbook, on the driver’s door, or inside the fuel flap.

Tyres must have at least 1.6mm tread across the central three-quarters. Replace them before this limit to avoid fines or penalty points.

Run flat tyres save boot space by eliminating the need for a spare tyre or inflation kit. Your vehicle manual will state if your vehicle has run flats.

These tyres have reinforced sidewalls that prevent collapse after a puncture, allowing safe driving for about 50 miles at up to 50 mph.

We do not fit winter tyres, however we do allow for all season tyres to be fitted.

You may fit winter tyres at your expense, but you must store and protect the removed tyres, accepting liability for loss or damage. You’re also responsible for storage, refitting costs, and ensuring standard tyres are refitted before returning the vehicle to ALD Automotive.
