Frequently asked questions about tyre fittings in the Scottish Highlands and Islands
Read our answers to questions about tyre fitting costs, symptoms and more.
Where do I find the right Tyre size?
Your tyre size is the string of letters and numbers that runs along the sidewall of the tyres you currently have fitted to your vehicle.
- Width is the first 3 numbers and represents the width of the tyre in millimetres.
- Profile is the next 2 digits, often separated by a slash. The profile of a tyre is the height of the sidewall, as a percentage of the overall width.
- Rim size follows as the next 2 digits, usually following "R" and is the inner diameter of the tyre measured in inches.
- Speed rating is the final letter, and indicates the maximum speed the tyre is approved for.
When should I get new Tyres fitted?
The most straight forward reason, why new tyres need to be fitted is visible damage. This can be a puncture coming from contact with sharp objects like nails or when you have driven through rubble or debris. Other visible damages to your tyres can be cuts or bulges in the sidewall, which can be the result of sharp contacts with the kerb.
Another important reason, why your car needs new tyres is the depth of the tyre tread. The legal requirement for the tread is to be at least 1.6 mm deep to ensure enough traction on the road. You can measure the depth of the tyre tread by inserting a 20p coin into the grooves of the tyres. If the outer band of the coin is visible, the tyres might be unsafe for the road and should be changed or at least checked by a mechanic.
