The legal minimum limit for tyre tread depth in Ireland is 1.6mm. This is because, tyre performance, particularly in wet weather gets worse as the tread wears down. - 4 millimetres is generally considered a safe tread depth. If the tread depth is not sufficient, the car will aquaplane more easily and its braking distance on wet roads will be longer. 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. - Tyres that are evenly worn provide better grip and more control, especially around corners. A good way to keep your tyres in shape for longer is to rotate them regularly, either once every 8,000 kilometres during normal driving or when the tyres have a difference in wear of 2 millimetres. - You should check whether the inner and outer sidewalls of the tyres are clean and whether any abnormal bulges, cracks or punctures are visible. Every now and then, you should remove large stones from the tyre’s main grooves. Rocks that are firmly wedged into the grooves will not fall out while driving; instead, they will penetrate deeper into the tyre and may cause tyre damage. - Inflation pressure will directly affect handling and driving safety. You can find the correct tyre pressure in the vehicle’s manual. Special attention should be paid to vans and motor homes as such extra loads will probably require more tyre pressure. |

TEST YOUR TYRES WITH A €2 COIN: A €2 coin is a good benchmark for tyre condition. The silver ring at the edge of the coin is less than 4 millimetres wide. If it rises even slightly above the tread block when the coin is placed in the groove, you should consider replacing your tyres.
