Cheap Tyres Online

27 January 2015, 15:51

Making sure that your tyres are in good condition is extremely important when it comes to the safety of your car. You will need to change your tyres before they wear out completely, and how often you have to do so will depend entirely on how often and how far you drive.

But you will need to make an important decision when you do change your tyres – what exactly are you looking for? If you are on a budget then you may just choose the tyres based entirely on price. Many drivers are not aware of the impact that different tyres may have on other aspects of their vehicle.

Could cheap tyres be more expensive?

When you are looking at the price of different tyres, you need to look at them as an investment. Some may cost you more up-front but could actually save you money in the long run as you won’t have to change them as often. Higher quality tyres could improve the fuel consumption of your car as well, meaning that you end up spending less money on petrol in the future. Cheap tyres are of a lower quality which could cause them to puncture more easily and wear out sooner, making you have to replace them more often.

High quality tyre brands

There are many different premium tyre brands to choose from, including Michelin, Goodyear and Continental to name but a few. There have been quite a few different tests conducted which have found very little difference between the performance of different premium brands. Some car manufacturers will recommend a particular tyre brand for their cars and you may only be able to drive some sports cars if you use particular tyres.

High quality tyres perform better, last longer, make less noise and are more comfortable to drive on. If those reasons are not enough to convince you to invest in a good quality tyre, then take a look at this test which compares high-end brands and cheap tyres. In some ways, the tyres are the most important part of the car. They are the parts which constantly make contact with the road and are therefore subjected to the most wear and tear. Investing in better quality tyres will increase the safety of your vehicle as a whole.

New cheap tyres

Tyres may all look the same, but there are huge differences in performance which you may not be aware of. If you have a small car and are not particularly interested in driving at top speeds then you may not think that performance is important; however, in some instances, your choice of tyre could be the difference between life and death. There have been tests carried out which found that cheap tyres, even in the best conditions, can take up to 14m longer than premium tyres to come to a stop from 70mph when it has been raining. In order to be sold legally, tyres have to have been subjected to a basic level of safety testing.

If you do choose to buy cheaper tyres then you will be complying with health and safety standards and theoretically shouldn’t be putting yourself or your passengers at risk. However, it has been proven that high-quality tyres can contribute to shorter braking distances which could be the difference between your car being involved in an accident and avoiding a collision.

Even cheaper Part Worn tyres

Part worn tyres may seem like incredibly good value but they are not worth the risk. Part worn tyres are essentially second hand, used tyres which have already been fitted to a vehicle which may have been scrapped. When you buy part worn tyres you cannot guarantee their quality or safety and you may be putting yourself and your passengers at risk by fitting them to your car. It is hard to tell whether or not the tyres have been repaired previously, so you won’t know whether there are any punctures or breaks which could be dangerous. Although it is now illegal for anyone to sell part worn tyres which don’t comply with various safety regulations, there is still no guarantee that they are in the best condition.
