Want to ensure satisfactory mileage and performance from your tyres? The best way to do this is to give them some love! How? Through simple, monthly inspections for proper inflation, even tread wear and looking for any signs of damage. Here at Tyre Review, we have a heap of video clips, articles and handy diagrams to assist you in this. Here is a brief guide of the key things you need to know about when it comes to caring for your tyres.

Tyre Pressure - Checking and adjusting your tyre pressure is something that you can easily do yourself. It’s super important to maintain your tyres inflation pressure at the recommended level.

Tread Wear - Tread depth is essential for safe braking and water dispersion so check your tyres for wear and always replace them when they reach 1.6mm of remaining tread depth.

Wheel Alignment - Misalignment of your tyres can cause irregular tyre wear and compromise safety. Your car handles best when the wheels are correctly aligned.

Tyre Rotation - This is as simple as it sounds, it’s the moving, or rotation, of your tyres so that they trade places on your vehicle in a systematic way to achieve as even a wear as possible. This needs to be done according to your vehicle manufacturer’s recommendations or at maximum intervals of 10,000 kilometers.
