When should my tyres be replaced?
The legal limit for the tread of the tyre is 1.6mm across ¾ of the tread pattern. Your tyre should be replaced if any of the following defects are visible: • If the tread is less that 1.6mm. • If the tyre has any bald patches. • If the internal construction of the tyres is visible. • If the sidewall of the tyre bulges anywhere. • If the tyre is split. • If the tyre has extensive cracking or the rubber is perishing, (usually on older tyres.) • If the tyre is not the same size as the one on other side of the axle.
