It is a good idea to check the condition of your tyres regularly. Check the tread depth, tyre pressure and complete a thorough visual inspection to ensure that you are legally compliant. If you are in any doubt about the condition of your tyres, have them inspected by an expert at your local Toyota Centre or Service Outlet.
Our tyres are competitively priced and we stock a wide range whatever make or model of Toyota you have, from traditional radial tyres, and a variety of tyre manufacturers to run flat tyres featuring new technology that offers improved safety and additional mobility in the event of air loss. If we don't have the precise tyre you need, we can usually get it delivered on the next day.

Key points to bear in mind:
• The legal minimum tyre tread depth for cars is 1.6mm in a continuous band throughout the central three-quarters of the tread width, throughout the whole of the tyre circumference (see illustration below)
• The tyre must be suitably inflated for the purpose the vehicle is being used
• The tyre must not have a cut, in excess of 25mm or 10% of the tyre section width whichever is the greater, which is deep enough to reach the tyre's internal structure
• The tyre must not have a lump, bulge or tear caused by separation or partial failure of its structure
• The tyre must not have any ply or cord exposed
