  1. 5 Indicators You May Have To Replace Your Tyres

  2. Introduction You have your private registration in place, the right accessories boosting your car's performance and the correct driving attitude showcasing your awareness of traffic rules. But did you know that each of these aspects would hardly mean anything if your tyres are not in order? Let's take a look at the distinctive warning signs indicating a requirement for tyre replacement.

  3. Reduced Tread Depth Every car tyre should have a minimum tread depth of 1.6 millimetres. Any less than this renders it unsafe on the road. This is because a decreased tread depth results in a reduced grip and traction on the road, which can cause your vehicle to spiral out of control.

  4. Ageing Signs Tyres age irrespective of usage. Temperature, storage conditions, driving style, pressure, speed etc. contribute to the life of tyres. These impact the performance and longevity of tyres considerably. You would need to keep a close watch on your tyres for signs of fatigue.

  5. Side-wall Cracks With exposure to the sun, the oils in the rubber compound of tyres start evaporating and cracks or cuts begin to show on the side-walls. These cracks indicate that your tyre is on the brink of developing a leak. On serious cases, these may even lead to a blow out.

  6. Tyre Vibration Excessive vibration of tyres could mean that your car's tyres are misaligned or the balance is off. It could also be an indicator of internal tyre problems. Vibrations, if left unattended for a long period of time, could result in wearing of tyres.

  7. Abnormal Bulges Sometimes the internal frames of tyres get damaged and allow air pressure to affect the outer layers of the tyre. This manifests as bulges or blisters that extend outwards. These could result in tyre blow outs and similar catastrophes if not replaced immediately.

  8. Conclusion It is important to check your car tyres for cautionary signs of replacement every now and then. This would eliminate any risk on the road.
