You can monitor the health of your car's tyres

We wanted to reiterate the importance of getting your car's tyres checked during a service. That's because over eight million Australian motorists could be driving with illegal tyres, according to a study we completed in 2020.

During a service, our technicians will check the condition of the tyres on your vehicle. Things they'll be looking for include:

Tread depth (the legal minimum is 1.6mm)

Cracks or cuts

Condition of the sidewall

Foreign objects (e.g. nails)

You can check for any damage to the tyres yourself, and we recommend you do so between services. However, a routine check - included as part of a service - by a qualified technician is always recommended.
