Looking after your tyres

We Provide, fit and install tyres for all kinds of vehicles at Power Drive Automotive Repairs - Come in and See Us Today if you need new tyres!

There are ways you can look after your new or existing tyres to maintain their lifespan, helping you save money on replacement tyres in the long run.

Healthy tyres are critical to the overall safety and performance of your vehicle, they are the only piece of your car which is in constant contact with the road and they affect your ability to brake, corner and accelerate safely. A balding tyre will add up to 10 meters of extra stopping distance in wet conditions, and low tyre pressure can increase the amount of petrol you use by up to 3%.

A regular inspection of your tyres is one of the best ways to keep your vehicle, and your family, safe on the roads. The cost of tyres makes them a significant investment and good maintenance will extend their life and save you money. There are three main things to check when it comes to tyres:

  • Tyre Pressure
  • Tyre damage and irregular wearing.
  • Tread depth

We provide a free 62 point safety check with every full car service here at Power Drive Automotive Repairs which includes a check of all five tyres ( including your spare) and we will certainly advise you of any issues we feel could be affecting your safety or that could extend your existing tyre life.

If you have any doubts about the safety of your tyres please don't hesitate to come and see us for a bit of advice.
