Maximum Levels of Performance & Safety
No matter whether you opt for budget, mid-range or premium tyres, according to the RAC it is vital to look after them properly so that you can get the maximum levels of performance and safety from your vehicle.
According to RoSPA, In 2019, there were five fatal collisions and 136 serious collisions where illegal, defective or under-inflated tyres were deemed to be a contributory factor to the accident.
Tyres are the vehicle’s only point of contact with the road. The actual area of contact is small, roughly equivalent to four size eight men’s shoes. Bald tyres – ‘slicks’ – may be fine for a race car on a dry track, but no good at all for road vehicles on a wet road surface. Tyres treads are designed to pump water from the road surface and provide maximum grip. By the time the tread is worn down to the legal limit they will be unable to perform this task efficiently and MUST be replaced.
RoSPA recommends that worn tyres are replaced with an equivalent new unit well before the legal minimum tread limit of 1.6mm is reached – ideally as soon as they reach 3mm.
This is particularly important in wet, wintery conditions.
