8 top tyre care tips:

Smith’s Tyres of Lochthorn, Dumfries are the Dumfries area’s leading independent tyre specialists. As tyre experts, we understand the importance of looking after your tyres. According to the Department for Transport (DfT), poor tyre maintenance was the most common reason for car accidents in the UK over the past year. So here are our top tips for keeping your tyres (and you and family) safe:


Number 1: Check your tyre pressure regularly. This is the most important thing you can do to ensure your tyres last as long as possible. Underinflated tyres can cause increased wear and tear, poor handling and even a blowout. Overinflated tyres can also wear out prematurely and make your car handle poorly. The recommended tyre pressure for your car can be found in your owner's manual.


Number 2: Check your tyre tread depth regularly. The legal minimum tread depth in the UK is 1.6mm. If your tread depth is below this, you need to replace your tyres. You can check your tread depth with a simple tread depth gauge which you can buy from most auto parts stores.


Number 3: Keep your wheels aligned. An out-of-alignment wheel can cause uneven tyre wear and make your car handle poorly. You should have your wheels aligned every 12,000 to 15,000 miles.


Number 4: Avoid overloading your car. Overloading your car can put unnecessary stress on your tyres and shorten their lifespan.


Number 5: Drive carefully. Avoid sudden braking and acceleration, as this can cause uneven tyre wear. Also, avoid driving on rough roads or in extreme weather conditions, as this can also damage your tyres.


Number 6: Rotate your tyres regularly. This helps to even out the wear and tear on your tyres, so they last longer. Most cars should have their tyres rotated every 6,000 to 10,000 miles.


Number 7: Store your tyres properly. If you're not using your car for an extended period of time, you should store your tyres in a cool, dry place. This will help to prevent them from cracking or drying out.


Number 8: Look for signs of damage. Check your tyres for cracks, bulges, or cuts. If you see any of these, have your tyres inspected by the qualified tyre specialists at Smith’s Tyres, Dumfries.
