One sign of the need of tyre replacement is the decline in performance. This is more noticeable in wet weather, your vehicle may not grip as well as it once did, or you take longer to stop when applying the brakes. This is not so easy to tell all the time as the wear in tyres is so gradual you may not notice how bad the performance has become, that is, until you feel the differecne with new tyres!
There are tread markers within the tread that let you know when your tread has fallen to the legal limit of 1.6mm. By this point its vital that you have your tyres changed. We recommend that you change your tyres at 2mm however for safety reasons. Its amazing how many people come to us with tyres that are bold before they decide to do anything about it! By this point you are putting yourself and others in danger, not to mention the grim view of the law!
