Here is a 3 min once a month check that could save a life!You should check the following now and set a reminder in your phone to check them every 3 months for new tyres and every month as they age.

1. Tyre pressure - The correct pressure for you car will be printed on a compliance sticker on the inside of the door of most modern cars.2. Even tread wear and depth - Remember 1.5 mm is legal but 3 mm is safe. Your cars stopping distance under emergency braking conditions has doubled by the time you get to 1.5mm of remaining tread.3. Age - Tyre age is printed on the side wall of every tyre and if your tyres are older than 5 years old, they should be replaced.4. Cuts, cracks or bubbles on the side walls - These can be the most dangerous tyre faults and cause total tyre failure at any time. 5. Tyre temperature - If after a 30 min drive, you find one tyre to be noticeably hotter than the others it could indicate a serious tyre fault. Check ASAP.

HAVE YOU CHECKED YOUR TYRES LATELY...?
