It's an offence that could see drivers getting into trouble with the law
A motoring expert is warning drivers about a tyre mistake which could land them with a fine. Graham Conway, managing director at Select Car Leasing, has advised drivers not to choose the cheapest option when they replace the tyres on their vehicle to avoid falling for a little-known tyre mistake.
"But mixing and matching - where you have different sorts of tyres on the same axle - is an offence that could see you getting into trouble with the law." Although it might be tempting to choose the tyre at the lowest price, this mistake could become costly as drivers could be fined £100 and given three points if the tyres on a vehicle are not a consistent type on the axle reports Chronicle Live.
He continued: "It’s also recommended that tyres should have the same tyre tread pattern and tread depth - and the tread pattern and depth can vary widely between different manufacturers. Mixing and matching the type of tyre on the same axle means you’re left with inconsistent performance, potentially poor handling, and you’re also more likely to experience a catastrophic blow-out because of the stresses you’re placing on the system.
