Signs Your Tyres Need Replacing
A tyre can need attention even when it still has visible tread. Inspect all four tyres regularly and arrange a professional check if anything looks unusual.
Visible warning signs
Cuts, cords, bulges, cracking and objects embedded in the tread need prompt inspection.
- Tread wear indicators level with the tread
- A bubble or bulge in the sidewall
- Repeated loss of air pressure
- Severe or uneven shoulder wear
Changes while driving
New vibration, pulling, road noise or reduced wet grip can indicate tyre, wheel or suspension issues. Slow down and have the vehicle checked.
Frequently asked questions
Can a sidewall bulge be repaired?
No. A bulge usually means the tyre structure is damaged and the tyre should be replaced.
