[ "COMMON CAR TYRE ISSUETO WATCH OUT FORBecause your tyres are your car&#39;s main point of contact with the road, they are likely to be the source of the majority of problems you have with your vehicle. Knowing the indicators of a tyre problem is vital so that you can get them fixed or changed as soon as a problem is been found, keeping your car safe to drive at all times.Know more about MOT Tests in LondonWhat are the most common tyre troubles that you might face?1. Tyres that are bald or worn out-Balding is one of the most prevalent tyre issues caused by wear and tear. What does this mean, given that your tyres don&#39;t have hair? In brief, balding tyres have a smooth look with little or no tread remaining.As you drive, the tread of the tyre wears down as it grazes the rough asphalt roadways. This might also indicate incorrect tyre inflation, wheel misalignment, or frequent forceful braking. And, because your car&#39;s tyres offer the traction you rely on for a safe and smooth journey, bald tyres may be extremely dangerous to drive on, especially on rainy roads.The Land Transport Authority (LTA) recommends that your car&#39;s tyres have a minimum tread depth of 1.6mm. However, you should not wait until it is at its bare minimum. To minimize potential mishaps, we recommend that you check your car&#39;s tyres regularly and change them when the tread depth reaches 3mm.2. Tyres that are been overinflated or underinflated-The quantity of air in your car&#39;s tyres is another something to keep an eye on. Overinflated automobile tyres offer less traction on the road, but underinflated tyres produce poor maneuverability, a higher chance of punctures, and understeer (when you feel like your car is dragging).The air pump at your local gas station is one way to check the air pressure in your car&#39;s tyres. Locate the PSI (pounds per square inch) label on the tyre, which is normally inscribed on the side of it, then remove the tyre&#39;s air stem cap and put the air hose tip over it. Read the air pump numbers to determine the current PSI level in your tyre, then add or deflate air from it to get the appropriate PSI reading on the tyres.3. Tyres with bulges and cracks-When you drive over a pothole or hit a kerb, your car&#39;s tyres might develop cracks and bulges. Essentially, the impact of these little collisions causes stress to the sidewall and inner structure of the tyres. Although the tyre&#39;s sidewalls are been designed to absorb a certain amount of force, if the inner structure of the tyre is very damaged, it might result in a split or bulge that cannot be again repaired.Cracks may form on your car&#39;s tyres as a result of exposure to intense heat, wetness, or deterioration over time. This is why it&#39;s critical to inspect your tyres regularly and to take them to a repair if you see even the smallest fracture or bulge.4. Tyre Misalignment-Misalignment is another typical tyre issue. It&#39;s not always simple to spot, but here are several telltale symptoms that your car&#39;s wheels are been misaligned and should be well-adjusted right away:&middot; Unequal tyre wear - mismatched tyres frequently suffer uneven wear and tear. So, even if your tyres don&#39;t appear to be very worn out on one side, carefully inspect the surface to determine if there are any bald areas. If the tyres were been worn out equally over time due to regular wear and tear, they would be more uniformly worn out.&middot; When driving, your automobile may pull to one side if your tyres are been mismatched.&middot; A tilted steering wheel - If you find yourself twisting your steering wheel at an angle to stay straight when driving, this is also an indication of mismatched tyres. It is possible, however, that the steering wheel is been misplaced.5. Punctured or cut tyres-As previously stated, cuts and puncture damage generally occur when a sharp item, such as a nail or glass, enters the tyre&#39;s rubber casing, resulting in a loss of air pressure. This is the most difficult hazard to avoid since foreign objects and road debris can be difficult to see, especially at night or in the rain.Remember that because the air may slowly release over a few hours, it may be more difficult to detect a nail that has become lodged in your tyres (as shown in the image above). This is why we can&#39;t emphasize enough how important it is to check for these common problems as frequently as possible before driving.Car tyres are an essential component of safe driving. If your vehicle has any of these tyre issues, get it examined right away. Get a professional to check into it, and get it fixed or replaced as soon as possible if necessary. When purchasing replacement tyres, use caution. You should check that it is not excessively worn or damaged.Check your car tyres at MOT Collier Row before conducting the MOT test." ]
