Surely they deserve a little tlc?

Safety Tips

External Damage Check for punctures or cuts in the tyre caused by impact damage from objects in the road or nails.

Check for sidewall damage such as splits or bulges, this sort of damage can result in sudden tyre failure so see a tyre specialist as soon as possible.

Have your tyres checked if the vehicle has been involved in an emergency manoeuvre like sudden and heavy braking as this can cause serious damage.
