Why Choosing the Right Tyres Matters
We understand that buying tyres isn’t always the most exciting job, but it is one of the most important. The right tyres can make a huge difference to:
- Braking distances
- Wet-weather performance
- Fuel consumption
- Ride comfort and stability
At Freeway, we offer honest, impartial advice to help you choose the best tyres for your car.
What Type of Tyres Do I Need?
The tyres you need depend on your vehicle type, driving habits, and road conditions. For example:
- City drivers: all-season tyres often provide the best balance of performance and value.
- Motorway drivers: premium tyres may give you better fuel efficiency and durability.
- Performance vehicles: high-grip, specialist tyres maximise handling and safety.
We stock budget, mid-range, and premium tyres, and our team in Tunbridge Wells will always explain the benefits of each option so you can make the right choice.
Finding the Right Tyre Size
Getting the correct tyre size is crucial for both safety and performance. You can find the right size by:
- Checking the sidewall of your current tyres
- Looking in your vehicle’s handbook
- Using an online tyre size checker
Tyre sizes are usually shown in a format such as 205/55 R16, which represents width, profile, rim diameter, load index, and speed rating. If you’re unsure, our Tunbridge Wells tyre specialists will be happy to guide you.

Tyres FAQs
How often should I replace my spare tyre?
Spare tyres are essential in emergencies. Space-saver spares are designed for short journeys only and should not be driven above 50mph. Always know where your spare tyre is stored and how to fit it properly.
Can tyres cause me to fail my MOT?
Yes. Worn tread below 1.6mm, sidewall damage such as cuts or bulges, or a faulty TPMS system can result in an MOT failure. Regular tyre inspections help ensure your vehicle passes the test.
Do tyres affect fuel consumption?
Absolutely. Tyres with lower rolling resistance improve fuel efficiency. Additionally, maintaining the correct tyre pressure reduces fuel usage and extends tyre life.
What’s the minimum legal tyre tread depth in the UK?
The legal minimum is 1.6mm across the central three-quarters of the tread. However, many experts recommend changing tyres at 3mm for safer performance and better grip.
How do I know when my tyres need replacing?
Look for signs such as worn tread, cracks or bulges on the sidewalls, uneven wear patterns, vibration while driving, or increased stopping distances. If unsure, book a free tyre check with our Tunbridge Wells expert team.
