With this in mind, it may well be necessary for you to either buy new alloy wheels or sell your old ones and use that money to fund replacements.Q: Are expensive tyres worth the extra cost?A: When buying car tyres there are actually a lot of variables that come into play, including size and quality; both of these things can affect how much your tyres cost However, what most will generally find is that buying a cheap tyre doesnt always equate to better value for moneyFor example, a more expensive high-performance brand name tyre may initially cost considerably more than one from a budget brand, however, the former will probably last longer and also have a higher speed rating whereas the latter will likely have a lower speed rating with poorer cornering abilityIn comparison with tyres from different manufacturers of similar prices, it can be difficult to draw any solid conclusions about which are best because each has its own merits, but we recommend sticking with what you know and trust!Q: What caused my puncture?A: Punctures tend to occur either when there is a sharp item in your tyres like nails or glass or they can simply be a result of wear and tear.

Q: How often should I get my tyres checked?A: If youre not sure what to look for this can be quite difficult to answer; after all, no two tyre technicians are the same.
