Top 5 Signs It’s Time to Replace Your Tyres

Stay Safe with the Right Tyre Care

Your tyres are the only part of your vehicle that touches the road — so keeping them in top shape is critical for your safety. Here are five signs that indicate it’s time to visit Total Tyres & Wheels Rocklea for new tyres.

1. Low Tread Depth

If your tread depth is below 1.5mm, your tyres are no longer safe. Reduced tread means less grip, especially on wet roads — increasing your risk of skidding or hydroplaning.

2. Cracks or Bulges

Cracks, sidewall bubbles, or cuts are warning signs that your tyres are weakening. This can lead to sudden blowouts, especially in hot weather.

3. Uneven Tyre Wear

If one side of your tyres wears faster than the other, your wheel alignment or balancing may be off. Our technicians can inspect and fix the cause before fitting new tyres.

4. Vibration While Driving

Excessive vibration in your steering wheel or seat could mean your tyres are unbalanced or worn unevenly.

5. Tyre Age

Even if your tyres look fine, they degrade over time. Most manufacturers recommend replacement every 5–6 years, regardless of tread depth.
