Tyre Maintenance

Guide on when to replace your tyres

Every tyre has a Tread Wear Indicator (TWI), which forms a triangle located on the sidewall of the tyre. TWI is an indicator of tyre wear and is also a benchmark for you to check if your tyre is worn out. Tyres should be changed immediately when the tyre tread has surpassed the indicators.

Warning: Worn out tyres compromises the handling and braking distance tremendously.

Keep a lookout for the physical signs stated below, even if the tyres have not worn out yet.

  • Bulges on tyres - We recommend you to replace the tyres immediately, due to high potential of tyres bursting

  • Patches - A sign of potential air leak

  • Cracks - Normally on the tyre's sidewall

Consult your nearest tyre dealer if there are any signs of physical damage or deformity on your tyres.

Tips to maximize your tyre performance and durability:

  • Check your tyre's air pressure at least once a month. Adjust the air pressure according to the manufacturer's instruction manual.

  • Tyre balancing and wheel alignment will increase tyre mileage and maintain the performance of the tyres.
