FAQ
Everything You Need To Know
How do I know when I need new tyres?
There are several clear signs that it’s time to replace your tyres. The most obvious is tread wear—if your tread depth is less than 1.6mm (the legal minimum in Australia), your tyres are no longer safe. Many tyres have wear indicators built into the grooves, which become level with the tread when they’re worn out. You might also notice your car doesn’t grip the road as well, takes longer to brake, or feels unstable in wet weather. Cracks in the sidewall, bulges, or regular punctures are also indicators. If your tyres are more than five years old, even if they appear fine, it’s a good idea to get them professionally checked for safety.
What type of tyres do I need for my car?
The right tyre depends on your vehicle, driving habits, and road conditions. For everyday urban and highway driving, standard all-season tyres often offer the best balance of cost, comfort, and safety. If you drive a 4WD or SUV, you may need all-terrain or off-road tyres for extra durability and grip. Electric vehicles require low rolling resistance tyres to enhance battery efficiency and handle the unique weight distribution of EVs. Tyre size, speed rating, and load index (found on your existing tyre or vehicle placard) are also essential to match. For the best results, consult with a tyre specialist who can recommend the right fit based on your specific needs.
How long do new tyres last?
The lifespan of new tyres varies based on factors like tyre type, driving style, road conditions, and how well they’re maintained. On average, most standard car tyres last between 40,000 and 80,000 kilometres. High-performance or softer compound tyres may wear faster, while 4WD or touring tyres can often last longer if properly cared for. Regular tyre rotations, wheel alignments, correct inflation, and not overloading your vehicle all contribute to extended tyre life. It’s also important to inspect your tyres regularly for uneven wear, damage, or changes in driving feel, which could signal early issues.
