The wear bars show when you only have 1.5mm of tread left, at which point your tyres are on their absolute minimum legal tread depth. In the wet, or travelling at high speeds, your grip and stopping distances are seriously compromised if you have below 1.5mm of tread.\nAnother easy check is to insert a 20c coin into the tread. The base of the number 20 is approximately 2mm from the edge of the coin, so if you can see the whole of the number, it’s time to think about replacing your tyres.\nYou can make it easier to check the tread on your front tyres by turning them fully to one side then the other.\nJust like a balloon, all tyres gradually lose air over time, but with modern tyres it is difficult to tell whether they are underinflated.\nUnderinflated tyres reduce grip and increase stopping distances. They also will wear our faster and cost you more in fuel. Underinflated tyres can use about 4% more fuel, or about an extra 8 cents per litre at current petrol prices. To check the correct tyre pressure for your car try looking for a sticker inside the driver’s door pillar, in the manual or there is an online tyre pressure tool on the \nEECA Energywise website\n.\nIf none of these can give you your correct pressure you can try emailing \ninfo@tyresafety.org.nz\nIf you see any cracks or bubbles in the side of your tyre, or the tread is wearing out faster in some places than others, take it to a garage or tyre retailer for a professional to check.\nWhen you are checking your tread depth and air pressure, take a moment to look for any tyre damage as well. If you see any cracks or bubbles in the side of your tyre, or the tread is wearing out faster in some places than others, take it to a garage or tyre retailer for a professional to check.\nThe AA recommends that you check your tyre pressures about once a month. The best time to do this is when you’re at a service station filling up on fuel. This is also a perfect time to check your tread depth and tyre condition.","attrs_markdown":"[![New Zealand Automobile Association \\| AA New

The wear bars show when you only have 1.5mm of tread left, at which point your tyres are on their absolute minimum legal tread depth. In the wet, or travelling at high speeds, your grip and stopping distances are seriously compromised if you have below 1.5mm of tread.\n\nAnother easy check is to insert a 20c coin into the tread. The base of the number 20 is approximately 2mm from the edge of the coin, so if you can see the whole of the number, it’s time to think about replacing your tyres.\n\n![tyre tread check](https:\/\/www.aa.co.nz\/about\/safer-vehicles\/tyre-safety\/_jcr_content\/root\/container\/columncontrol\/columncontrolcontainer\/container\/image.coreimg.jpeg\/1739913471036\/20c-tyre-test.jpeg)\n\nYou can make it easier to check the tread on your front tyres by turning them fully to one side then the other.\n\n## Checking your tyre pressure\nJust like a balloon, all tyres gradually lose air over time, but with modern tyres it is difficult to tell whether they are underinflated.\n\nUnderinflated tyres reduce grip and increase stopping distances. They also will wear our faster and cost you more in fuel. Underinflated tyres can use about 4% more fuel, or about an extra 8 cents per litre at current petrol prices. To check the correct tyre pressure for your car try looking for a sticker inside the driver’s door pillar, in the manual or there is an online tyre pressure tool on the [EECA Energywise website](http:\/\/www.energywise.govt.nz\/tools\/tyre-pressure).\n\nIf none of these can give you your correct pressure you can try emailing [info@tyresafety.org.nz](https:\/\/www.aa.co.nz\/cdn-cgi\/l\/email-protection#751c1b131a535643414e010c071006141310010c5b1a07125b1b0f)\n\nIf you see any cracks or bubbles in the side of your tyre, or the tread is wearing out faster in some places than others, take it to a garage or tyre retailer for a professional to check.\n## Checking your tyre condition\nWhen you are checking your tread depth and air pressure, take a moment to look for any tyre damage as well. If you see any cracks or bubbles in the side of your tyre, or the tread is wearing out faster in some places than others, take it to a garage or tyre retailer for a professional to check.\n\n## Make it a habit\nThe AA recommends that you check your tyre pressures about once a month. The best time to do this is when you’re at a service station filling up on fuel. This is also a perfect time to check your tread depth and tyre condition.\n***\n### More information\n[\\> Tyre Safety website](http:\/\/tyresafety.org.nz\/)\n\n[\\> EECA Energywise tyre pressure tool](http:\/\/www.energywise.govt.nz\/tools\/tyre-pressure)\n\n![New Zealand Automobile Association (AA) Logo](https:\/\/www.aa.co.nz\/content\/dam\/nzaa\/01-brand\/brand-assets\/logos\/primary\/logo.svg)\n\n*call*\n\nAA Roadservice\n\n[*location\\_on* Find AA Locations](https:\/\/www.aa.co.nz\/maps\/)\n\n24 hour AA Roadservice\n\n[*call* 0800 500 222](tel:0800%20500%20222)\n***\nCustomer Contact Centre\n\n[*call* 0800 500 444](tel:0800%20500%20444)\n\n##### [Contact us](https:\/\/www.aa.co.nz\/contact-us\/)  keyboard\\_arrow\\_down\n- [Location finder](https:\/\/www.aa.co.nz\/maps\/)\n- [Work or partner with us](https:\/\/www.aa.co.nz\/about\/work-or-partner-with-us\/)\n- [Careers](https:\/\/www.aa.co.nz\/about\/careers\/)\n- [Complaints](https:\/\/www.aa.co.nz\/contact-us\/making-a-complaint\/)\n\n##### [Help & support]()  keyboard\\_arrow\\_down\n- [Help](https:\/\/www.aa.co.nz\/site-info\/help\/)\n- [Identity verification](https:\/\/www.aa.co.nz\/about\/identity-verification\/)\n- [Site information](https:\/\/www.aa.co.nz\/site-info\/)\n\n##### [Advocacy & safety]()  keyboard\\_arrow\\_down\n- [AA Research Foundation](https:\/\/www.aa.co.nz\/about\/aa-research-foundation\/)\n- [Media releases](https:\/\/www.aa.co.nz\/about\/newsroom\/)\n- [Affiliations](https:\/\/www.aa.co.nz\/about\/affiliations\/)\n\n##### [Legal]()  keyboard\\_arrow\\_down\n- [Privacy statement](https:\/\/www.aa.co.nz\/site-info\/terms-and-conditions\/privacy-policy\/)\n- [Term & conditions](https:\/\/www.aa.co.nz\/site-info\/terms-and-conditions\/)\n\nThe New Zealand Automobile Association (Incorporated).\n\n- [![Facebook Logo](https:\/\/www.aa.co.nz\/content\/dam\/nzaa\/06-digital-library\/illustrations\/icons\/fb%20logo.png)](https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/aa.co.nz)\n- [![Instagram Logo](https:\/\/www.aa.co.nz\/content\/dam\/nzaa\/06-digital-library\/illustrations\/icons\/insta%20logo.png)](https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/aa_new_zealand\/)\n- [![shielded](https:\/\/www.aa.co.nz\/content\/dam\/nzaa\/04-website-content\/navigation\/icons\/logo-shielded-site.svg)](https:\/\/www.aa.co.nz\/about\/safer-vehicles\/tyre-safety\/)","attrs_readable_markdown":"When was the last time you checked your tyres?\n\nA tyre without much tread left or low pressure can severely compromise both grip and stopping distances.\n\nVisit the [Tyre Safety website](http:\/\/www.tyresafety.org.nz\/) for more info on how to make sure your tyres are safe and efficient, and enter the draw for several sets of new tyres.\n\nAlmost all tyres have wear bars in the groove of the tread, so make sure the tyre isn’t worn down to the wear bar.

Boilerpipe Text	When was the last time you checked your tyres? A tyre without much tread left or low pressure can severely compromise both grip and stopping distances. Visit the Tyre Safety website for more info on how to make sure your tyres are safe and efficient, and enter the draw for several sets of new tyres. Almost all tyres have wear bars in the groove of the tread, so make sure the tyre isn’t worn down to the wear bar. The wear bars show when you only have 1.5mm of tread left, at which point your tyres are on their absolute minimum legal tread depth. In the wet, or travelling at high speeds, your grip and stopping distances are seriously compromised if you have below 1.5mm of tread. Another easy check is to insert a 20c coin into the tread. The base of the number 20 is approximately 2mm from the edge of the coin, so if you can see the whole of the number, it’s time to think about replacing your tyres. You can make it easier to check the tread on your front tyres by turning them fully to one side then the other. Just like a balloon, all tyres gradually lose air over time, but with modern tyres it is difficult to tell whether they are underinflated. Underinflated tyres reduce grip and increase stopping distances. They also will wear our faster and cost you more in fuel. Underinflated tyres can use about 4% more fuel, or about an extra 8 cents per litre at current petrol prices. To check the correct tyre pressure for your car try looking for a sticker inside the driver’s door pillar, in the manual or there is an online tyre pressure tool on the EECA Energywise website . If none of these can give you your correct pressure you can try emailing info@tyresafety.org.nz If you see any cracks or bubbles in the side of your tyre, or the tread is wearing out faster in some places than others, take it to a garage or tyre retailer for a professional to check. When you are checking your tread depth and air pressure, take a moment to look for any tyre damage as well. If you see any cracks or bubbles in the side of your tyre, or the tread is wearing out faster in some places than others, take it to a garage or tyre retailer for a professional to check. The AA recommends that you check your tyre pressures about once a month. The best time to do this is when you’re at a service station filling up on fuel. This is also a perfect time to check your tread depth and tyre condition.

A tyre without much tread left or low pressure can severely compromise both grip and stopping distances. Visit the [Tyre Safety website](http://www.tyresafety.org.nz/) for more info on how to make sure your tyres are safe and efficient, and enter the draw for several sets of new tyres. ## Checking your tread depth Almost all tyres have wear bars in the groove of the tread, so make sure the tyre isn’t worn down to the wear bar. The wear bars show when you only have 1.5mm of tread left, at which point your tyres are on their absolute minimum legal tread depth. In the wet, or travelling at high speeds, your grip and stopping distances are seriously compromised if you have below 1.5mm of tread. Another easy check is to insert a 20c coin into the tread. The base of the number 20 is approximately 2mm from the edge of the coin, so if you can see the whole of the number, it’s time to think about replacing your tyres. ![tyre tread check](https://www.aa.co.nz/about/safer-vehicles/tyre-safety/_jcr_content/root/container/columncontrol/columncontrolcontainer/container/image.coreimg.jpeg/1739913471036/20c-tyre-test.jpeg) You can make it easier to check the tread on your front tyres by turning them fully to one side then the other. ## Checking your tyre pressure Just like a balloon, all tyres gradually lose air over time, but with modern tyres it is difficult to tell whether they are underinflated. Underinflated tyres reduce grip and increase stopping distances. They also will wear our faster and cost you more in fuel. Underinflated tyres can use about 4% more fuel, or about an extra 8 cents per litre at current petrol prices. To check the correct tyre pressure for your car try looking for a sticker inside the driver’s door pillar, in the manual or there is an online tyre pressure tool on the [EECA Energywise website](http://www.energywise.govt.nz/tools/tyre-pressure). If none of these can give you your correct pressure you can try emailing [info@tyresafety.org.nz](https://www.aa.co.nz/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#751c1b131a535643414e010c071006141310010c5b1a07125b1b0f) If you see any cracks or bubbles in the side of your tyre, or the tread is wearing out faster in some places than others, take it to a garage or tyre retailer for a professional to check. ## Checking your tyre condition When you are checking your tread depth and air pressure, take a moment to look for any tyre damage as well. If you see any cracks or bubbles in the side of your tyre, or the tread is wearing out faster in some places than others, take it to a garage or tyre retailer for a professional to check. ## Make it a habit The AA recommends that you check your tyre pressures about once a month. The best time to do this is when you’re at a service station filling up on fuel. This is also a perfect time to check your tread depth and tyre condition. *** ### More information [\> Tyre Safety website](http://tyresafety.org.nz/) [\> EECA Energywise tyre pressure tool](http://www.energywise.govt.nz/tools/tyre-pressure) ![New Zealand Automobile Association (AA) Logo](https://www.aa.co.nz/content/dam/nzaa/01-brand/brand-assets/logos/primary/logo.svg) call AA Roadservice [location\_on Find AA Locations](https://www.aa.co.nz/maps/) 24 hour AA Roadservice [call 0800 500 222](tel:0800%20500%20222) *** Customer Contact Centre [call 0800 500 444](tel:0800%20500%20444) ##### [Contact us](https://www.aa.co.nz/contact-us/) keyboard\_arrow\_down - [Location finder](https://www.aa.co.nz/maps/) - [Work or partner with us](https://www.aa.co.nz/about/work-or-partner-with-us/) - [Careers](https://www.aa.co.nz/about/careers/) - [Complaints](https://www.aa.co.nz/contact-us/making-a-complaint/) ##### [Help & support]() keyboard\_arrow\_down - [Help](https://www.aa.co.nz/site-info/help/) - [Identity verification](https://www.aa.co.nz/about/identity-verification/) - [Site information](https://www.aa.co.nz/site-info/) ##### [Advocacy & safety]() keyboard\_arrow\_down - [AA Research Foundation](https://www.aa.co.nz/about/aa-research-foundation/) - [Media releases](https://www.aa.co.nz/about/newsroom/) - [Affiliations](https://www.aa.co.nz/about/affiliations/) ##### [Legal]() keyboard\_arrow\_down - [Privacy statement](https://www.aa.co.nz/site-info/terms-and-conditions/privacy-policy/) - [Term & conditions](https://www.aa.co.nz/site-info/terms-and-conditions/) The New Zealand Automobile Association (Incorporated). - [![Facebook Logo](https://www.aa.co.nz/content/dam/nzaa/06-digital-library/illustrations/icons/fb%20logo.png)](https://www.facebook.com/aa.co.nz) - [![Instagram Logo](https://www.aa.co.nz/content/dam/nzaa/06-digital-library/illustrations/icons/insta%20logo.png)](https://www.instagram.com/aa_new_zealand/) - [![shielded](https://www.aa.co.nz/content/dam/nzaa/04-website-content/navigation/icons/logo-shielded-site.svg)](https://www.aa.co.nz/about/safer-vehicles/tyre-safety/)
