Frequently Asked Questions
Advances in technology mean that today’s tyres tend to last much longer than in days gone by. Improvements in raw materials, chemical compounds, tread patterns, sidewall design and overall construction mean that tyres can perform for longer in tougher conditions. Tyres will generally last an average of 40,000km, although this can vary widely depending on the quality of road surfaces and your driving style. They should be checked annually once they reach the 5-year mark, and should be replaced every 10 years at the very least.
According to Transport Victoria, all tyres fitted to a vehicle must be certified for normal road use and meet specific tread depth and condition requirements. The team at Cox Auto understands these specifications and will ensure your tyres are always road-ready.
Having the correct tyre pressure can significantly extend the lifespan of your tyres, and is also really important for keeping your car running safely and efficiently. This can prevent blowouts, improve your fuel efficiency, and play an important role in staying safe on the road, particularly in wet conditions.
Likewise, correct wheel alignment has a huge impact on how long your tyres last and is critical to the safety and efficiency of your vehicle. Correctly aligned wheels will be parallel with one another and perpendicular to the ground within a very precise and sensitive range of acceptance. Any variation from this range impacts the resistance of your tyres, your steering capabilities, and the efficiency and safety of your car.
The temperature inside your tyres, and thus air pressure, is affected by air temperature, road temperature and the speed at which you’re travelling. This is why ‘blowouts’ are more common on those stinking hot Australian summer days. A 5°C variation in temperature can result in an approximately 2% rise (or fall) in tyre pressure, leading to blowouts on hot days or lower pressure on cold days that can lead to compromised grip/handling and increased fuel consumption.
Not all punctures can be safely repaired. Repairs are generally possible if the puncture is less than 6mm in diameter and located in the tyre’s tread area. Punctures in the sidewall or shoulder of the tyre, or larger than 6mm, typically require tyre replacement for safety reasons.
