Top 5 Crucial Signs Your Car Needs New Tyres Expert Advice from Asif Traders
Introduction
Tyres are the only part of your vehicle that directly touch the road — yet they’re often the most ignored. Whether you drive in the busy streets of Lahore or take long highway trips across Pakistan, your safety and your vehicle’s performance depend heavily on the condition of your tyres. At Asif Traders, with over 25 years of experience, we help car owners make informed decisions about their tyres before it’s too late.
Here are the top 5 warning signs that your car might need new tyres — and what you should do next?
1. Worn Out Tread Depth
The tread is what gives your tyres grip on the road. When it wears out, your braking performance and road grip decrease — especially on wet or uneven roads.
You can check tread wear easily with a coin test or by looking at the tread wear indicators (TWI) built into the tyre.
Tip: If your tyre tread depth is less than 1.6mm, it’s time to replace them immediately.
2. Uneven Wear Patterns
If one side of your tyre wears out faster than the other, it’s a sign of improper wheel alignment, unbalanced tyres, or even suspension issues.
This can affect your car’s handling, fuel economy, and tyre lifespan.At Asif Traders, we provide free visual inspections with every tyre purchase and guide you on alignment and balancing needs.
3. Visible Cracks or Bulges
Cracks on the sidewall or bulges on the tyre are often signs of ageing or internal damage.
This can be extremely dangerous and may lead to sudden tyre bursts — especially on hot roads or during high-speed driving.Don’t risk it! A small bulge today can become a big accident tomorrow.
4. Vibration or Shaking While Driving
Do you feel vibrations through your steering wheel even when driving on smooth roads? That could be a result of:
- Uneven tyre wear
- Imbalanced wheels
- Damaged internal tyre belts
Getting your tyres and rims checked by experts is important to avoid long-term damage.
At Asif Traders, we offer tyre balancing and inspection services in Gulberg, Lahore to diagnose these issues quickly.
5. Age of the Tyre
Even if the tread looks okay, a tyre older than 5–6 years becomes unsafe due to rubber hardening and internal weakening.
You can check your tyre’s manufacturing date from the DOT code printed on its sidewall.Pro Tip: Replace tyres every 5 years regardless of appearance — especially in Pakistan’s hot climate.
Why You Shouldn’t Delay Tyre Replacement
Driving on old or damaged tyres can lead to:
- Road accidents due to loss of grip
- Poor fuel efficiency
- Damage to suspension and rims
- Reduced comfort and control
