Tyres are one of the most important components of a vehicle. The tyre tread area making contact with the road is relatively small– only about the size of the palm of your hand – so if your tyres are worn or damaged it can seriously affect your car’s safety and handling. Not only that, if your tyres don’t meet legal requirements, you could face a fine of £2,500 per tyre and 3 penalty points on your licence.
That’s why it’s important to check tyre tread depth, general tyre condition and tyre pressure to ensure your tyres are safe for the roads.

FAQ
How do I know when my tyres need replaced?
If you notice that your car is not performing as well in wet weather, that it doesn’t handle or grip, or takes longer to stop when you brake then your tyres may need replacing. As tyre wear is a gradual process it can be hard to tell when your tyre needs changing which is why monthly tyre checks are recommended.
How do i measure tread depth?
A quick and simple way to check your tread depth is with a 20p coin. Insert the coin into the tread grooves at three separate places on your tyre. If you can see the outer rim of the 20p piece, then this could indicate that your tread is close to or below the legal minimum of 1.6mm and you should visit National to have your tyres checked. You should perform a quick visual inspection of the general condition of your tyres too.
How important is tyre pressure?
Can i replace only one tyre at a time?
Should i fit winter tyres?
More motorists are opting to fit winter tyres, especially after the severe winters we have experienced in the UK over the last few years. Winter tyres could be a valuable asset if you live in a remote location which is hit with severe winter weather or if you do a lot of driving. However it is important to remember that regular tyre tread, pressure and general condition checks are essential for safety when driving, whatever tyres you have fitted.
