Be on the look out for tyre damage

Driving with damaged tryes can be very unsafe, especially in the wet and icy weather conditions.

You need to give your tryes a quick one over every time you go out in the vehicle. The first sign you have that something isn’t quite right may eb that you have noticed that your tyres have not been gripping the road as well or that you have had the tyres on the car for some time now and they appear to have worn down or even perished. If this is the case, then you need to get them changed as soon as possible. Prices vary drastically for the cost of a tyre depending upon if you want new or part worn and what size you need. Also, the make of the tyre can have a huge impact on the price.

Unfortunately, some tyre damage is more out of the blue and may happen at any time. You may simply drive over something in the road or clip a curb and rip your tyre making it unrepairable. If the hole is not too bad and is located within a certain area, then you may be able to get way with a puncture repair rather than a new tyre. Even if the tyres has a lot of tread left on it, sometimes the only thing you can do is ret rid of it and buy a new one.
