When do tyres need replacing?
The legal minimum tread depth in the UK is 1.6mm across the central three-quarters of the tyre. Below this the tyre is illegal and must be replaced. Most safety guidance recommends considering replacement at 3mm, as wet-weather performance drops off significantly below that point.
Other reasons to replace a tyre sooner:
- Visible bulges or cracks in the sidewall
- Damage from a kerb or pothole impact
- Slow puncture that cannot be safely repaired
- Tyre is more than 6–8 years old regardless of tread depth

Should I replace two tyres or all four?
If only two tyres need replacing, fit the new ones to the rear axle regardless of whether the car is front- or rear-wheel drive. Rear tyre failure is harder to control than front, so the newer tyres belong at the back. Read more: Should you replace 2 or 4 tyres at once?
