FAQ

You can find your tyre size on the sidewall of your tyre. It’s usually written as 205/55R16.

205 = tyre width in millimetres

55 = aspect ratio (height to width)

R16 = rim diameter in inches
You can also find this information in your car’s manual or on the sticker inside the driver’s door.

These indicate the maximum weight and speed your tyre can safely handle.
For example, in 91V:

91 = supports up to about 615 kg per tyre

V = rated for speeds up to 240 km/h
Always match these ratings to the specifications recommended for your car.

Rotating your tyres every 10,000 km (or around 6,000 miles) helps to:

Ensure even wear across all tyres

Improve handling and stability

Extend the overall lifespan of your tyres
Rotation patterns may vary depending on whether your car is front-wheel, rear-wheel, or all-wheel drive.

You should consider replacing your tyres if:

The tread depth is below 1.6 mm

There are visible cracks, bulges, or damage

The tyres are over 5 years old, even if they still look fine
If in doubt, always have them checked by a professional.

The recommended tyre pressure is listed in your owner’s manual or on a label inside the driver’s door.
It’s usually between 30 and 35 PSI, but it’s best to follow your car’s specific value.
Incorrect pressure can affect fuel consumption, comfort, and tyre lifespan.

Summer tyres: Best performance in warm, dry conditions.

Winter tyres: Designed for cold weather, rain, and slippery roads.

All-season tyres: A balanced option suitable for most year-round conditions.
Choosing the right type improves safety, grip, and driving comfort.
