Choosing the correct tyres for your vehicle is extremely important for both safety and performance, as is ensuring you have the correct tyre pressure. The correct tyre pressure is dependent upon the vehicle the tyres are fitted to, and not the tyres themselves. This can be found in your owner's manual and differs slightly depending on make/model.

The cost of tyres is dependent on a variety of factors. Tyres tend to be categorised as premium, mid-range, and economy. Premium tyres are those from leading manufacturers such as Pirelli, Michelin, Goodyear. These have a relatively high price tag that reflects their performance, reliability, and the amount invested in R&D etc. Economy tyres are those at the opposite end price-wise, and include products from brands such as Ovation, Budget, and Enduro-Runway. Mid-range are those that are priced somewhere between the two, and include brands such as Firestone, Avon, and Uniroyal.

 

Generally speaking, tyres can cost as little as £50 right up to several hundred pounds (or more).

 No matter what tyres you decide to opt for, it can sometimes be hard to find the money up-front. If this is the case, it might be worth considering paying with Klarna

This is an entirely personal decision. There is no requirement to use exactly the same tyres, but many drivers do because it is simpler and more convenient.

 

You may feel like trying something different, or perhaps you want to switch from using summer/winter tyres to all-season varieties (or vice versa). The key thing is to ensure that the tyres are the correct size and meet your requirements in terms of load and speed ratings.
