How do I check my tyres to make sure my car is safe?

• Check the pressure of the tyres every month or so as under-inflated tyres can lead to low fuel efficiency and higher emissions while over-inflated tyres cause excessive wear and can result in less effective braking due to reduced traction on the road surface. You can find the correct tyre pressure either in your owner’s manual or inside the fuel cap, but if you’re not sure or don’t feel confident putting air into the tyres, bring your car into AJ Automedics in [lcoationfocus] and we’ll be happy to help you out.
• Check the tyre tread every few months – the depth of the tread should be at least 1.6mm -anything below that is illegal and unsafe. You can check this using a 20p coin – if the border of the coin is hidden when you put it in between the tread, then the depth is fine. Tread depth is so important because driving with worn tyres means that you won’t have adequate grip on the road surface and you’ll end up with much longer stopping distances and will also be at risk of aquaplaning.
