Would you risk a £2,500 fine (per tyre) and 3 penalty points for a worn tyre?
If all four of your tyres are worn below the legal limit, you could be facing up to a £10,000 fine. Not only are you risking your license but you are also putting your life in danger especially when roads are wet and icy.
Step 1 – Check tyre to see if you need a new tyre
One easy way to check your tyre’s tread depth would be the “20p Test”.
Here’s how it works:
- Place the 20p piece into the tread of your tyre
- If you are able to see the raised edge around the coin, this will mean your tyre’s tread is below 1.6mm and is illegal to drive on.
Step 2 – Find out the size of your tyres
If you need to replace your tyres, it's here on the sidewall that you can find the tyre specifications. Each number has a different meaning in this order:
- The 3-digit number is the tyre’s width, such as "175mm"
- The 2-digit number is the tyre’s aspect ratio, e.g. 65", to represents the tyre’s sidewall height
- The letter tells you how a tyre is constructed, such as, the "R" means that the tyre has radial construction
- The 2-digit number indicates the diameter of your wheel, such as "15in"
- There may also be a 2 or 3-digit number that represents the max load capacity of your tyre, such as "95" to state that it can hold up to 690 kg
