Your tyres should be replaced if they show signs of wear or damage that could affect safety. Key warning signs include:

  • Tread depth below 1.6mm – The UK’s legal limit, but replacing tyres sooner improves grip.
  • Cracks, bulges, or cuts – Indications of structural weakness, which could lead to a blowout.
  • Uneven wear – Often a result of poor wheel alignment or incorrect tyre pressure.
  • Increased stopping distance – If braking feels less responsive, your tyres may not be providing enough grip.
