Tyre Pressures

You’ll find the recommended pressures inside the drivers’ manual. Check the pressure when the tyre is cold, as even a short  journey will warm up tyres and raise the pressure.Under-inflation can cause tyre damage, uneven wear, and increase in fuel consumption.

Over inflated tyres give a less comfortable ride and wear out in the centre of the tread.

Check the pressure in the spare tyre to ensure it’s ready in an emergency.

Worn tyres mean less grip and longer stopping distances. Look for cuts, cracks and bulges or any other evidence of damage from violent impact or kerbing. Damaged tyres may be illegal and can be dangerous. Contact your tyre distributor immediately for expert advice.
