Budget vs Premium Tyres

Whilst all tyres sold in the UK are required to meet minimum standards for safety and quality many still consider cheap imported tyres to carry a level of uncertainty regarding their overall quality and durability.
When producing a budget tyre, the manufacturer will often be restricted to a particular price point meaning that the focus of that tyre’s production will be one based on margins, not on producing the best tyre. You can expect cheaper materials and less sophisticated technologies to be implemented in their design and manufacture.
In contrast, a premium tyre will have been developed and manufactured using exactly what is required to make the best, highest quality tyre possible with the price point being applied afterwards. This means that you can be more assured that a premium tyre will have the best qualities when it comes to safety, performance and longevity.
Canklow Service Station in Rotherham would always recommend a high-quality tyre over a budget tyre, the additional cost is well worth the peace of mind of knowing that you are driving on tyres designed to be the best and not tyres designed to meet minimum legal requirements at a cheaper price.

Fortunately, there is a simple test you can conduct to assess the condition of your tyres. With nothing more than a 20p piece, you can ascertain whether new tyres are required. We have provided the following diagram to illustrate this.
