How to increase the life of car tyre?

Tyre pressures are very important for balanced breaking, maximum grip and maximum tyre life. Recommended pressures vary according to load or speed. The part of the tyre in contact with the road is the ‘footprint’.

Wrong tyre pressures will cause rapid wear and shorter tyre life. Check the pressure in your tyres daily and when the car has been parked for at least 3 hours. If you think a tyre might be low, try and check it immediately with a tyre gauge and do not forget your spare tyre! The recommended cold tyre pressures are usually given on the tyre information label on the rear doorjamb on the driver’s side and can be checked at the majority of petrol garages.

The life span of tyres is dependant on the type of car, the amount of use and the driver! Reasons for changing tyres are usually legal (i.e. safety reasons and maybe driver preference). The tyres that are fitted to the car from the factory are generally the best tyres for your car. Make sure the installer balances the wheels when you have new tyres installed. This increases riding comfort and tyre life.
