If your tyres are worn or damaged it can seriously affect your cars handling. It is important to check tyre tread dept, tyre condition and tyre pressure to ensure your tyres are safe for the road.
When to Replace your Tyres
The legal minimum limit for tyre tread depth in Ireland is 1.6mm. This is because tyre performance gets worse as the tread wears down.
The greater the wear to your tyres the worse its wet weather grip will be. Tread depth should be checked more frequently once it reaches 3mm. Tyres should be replaced before their tread depth wears below 2mm. This is especially important if heading into autumn and winter months.

Driving style; For example, aggressive cornering and harsh braking increases wear

Pressure - Both under inflation and over inflation increase wear
Alignment - Incorrect wheel alignment results in rapid and uneven wear.
Generally on a front-wheel-drive car you'd hope for a minimum of 20,000 miles for front tyres, and double that for those on the rear.

string(679) "Tyre Age
Age is a separate issue to wear. Tyres deteriorate naturally through exposure to heat, sunlight (Ultraviolet/UV) light and rain. Degradation depends on the amount of exposure and the severity of the weather.
This is a more common problem for caravans, trailers and vehicles which are often only used occasionally. In everyday vehicles, tyres almost certainly will wear out before they degrade to such an extent they're unserviceable.
UV cracking tends to occur in tyres that are four or five years old. Tyres should be replaced irrespective of age if cracking becomes severe

Tyre pressures are quoted for cold tyres and will be specified in your car manual. They may also be shown on a sticker inside the fuel filler cap or driver's door.
Generally two figures will be quoted; one for 'normal' use and a higher figure for full loads. You should make sure to adjust the pressures as required.
If you don't know the correct tyre pressures you can contact the vehicle manufacturer's customer services department.

Tyre life –under or over inflation increases wear
Fuel economy –under inflation increases fuel consumption
Safety –under or over inflation will affect grip and braking performance
Ride –over inflation can result in a harsh, uncomfortable ride
You should check tyre pressures every two weeks when the tyres are cold using a reliable tyre pressure gauge.
At the same time, examine the tyres for any cuts or bulges. If you find any, have them checked out by a professional as soon as possible. A bulge in a tyre indicates internal structural damage so the tyre will need to be replaced.
The tyre must also be replaced if you find cuts deep enough to reveal the internal structure of the tyre.
