π TYRE TIP: HOW OLD ARE YOUR TYRES?
Did you know your tyres have an age as well as a tread depth?
π Tyres can deteriorate over time, even if they don't appear heavily worn. Age, storage conditions, temperature and use can all affect the condition of the rubber.
An older tyre may still have plenty of tread but could show signs of ageing such as cracks, hardening or other deterioration.
π‘ Our tip: Check the age and condition of your tyres regularly, and if you're unsure whether they're still suitable for the road, get them professionally inspected.
