Tyre Safety at Village Valley Automotive, Ashhurst, Palmerston North

Tyre safety is a top priority at Village Valley Automotive in Ashhurst, Palmerston North. Proper tread depth and tyre pressure are essential for enhancing your vehicle's performance and ensuring safety on the road. Our team is committed to keeping your tyres in excellent condition, so you can drive with confidence.

Tread Depth: Stay Safe on the Road

Maintaining the correct tread depth is vital for effective grip during braking and cornering. At Village Valley Automotive, we stress that the legal minimum tread depth in New Zealand is 1.5mm across three-quarters of the tyre’s tread pattern around the entire circumference. Adequate tread depth is especially important for optimal traction in wet or slippery conditions.

Many tyres feature built-in tread depth indicators to help monitor wear. If any part of your tyre tread falls below 1.5mm, it’s time for a replacement to ensure your safety.

Tyre Pressure: The Key to Efficiency and Safety

Correct tyre pressure plays a significant role in both safety and fuel efficiency.

Under-inflated tyres can lead to increased fuel consumption and poor handling.

Over-inflated tyres can cause uneven wear and reduce overall safety.

At Village Valley Automotive, we recommend regular tyre pressure checks to keep your vehicle running smoothly and efficiently. Properly inflated tyres not only improve performance but also extend their lifespan, saving you money in the long run.
