Ensure that tyres have more than 1.6mm of tread.

Most new tyres have about 8mm of tread pattern when manufactured but as tyres wear their ability to disperse water reduces. Tyres should be replaced before the tread wears down to the level of the Tread Wear Indicators.

The Tread Wear Indicators are moulded into all major grooves of tyres in at least four positions around the tyre. These indicators sit at least 1.6mm above the bottom of the grooves.
If you are unsure of how to correctly read your tread depth, come and visit one of our locations and we will be happy to assist.
