Is a Budget Tyre Right for Your Car and Driving Style?
Budget tyres aren’t for everyone, but they’re an excellent, safe choice in many common situations.
Budget Tyres are an Excellent Choice If You:
- ✓ Drive Low Annual Mileage: If you drive less than 8,000 miles a year, you may not need the longevity of a premium tyre, making budget tyres a very cost-effective option.
- ✓ Primarily Drive in the City: For typical urban driving with lower speeds and shorter distances, budget tyres provide perfectly adequate and safe performance.
- ✓ Own an Older or Second Car: It often doesn’t make financial sense to put expensive premium tyres on an older vehicle with a lower value or a second car used for short trips.
- ✓ Are Selling Your Vehicle Soon: Need to replace worn tyres to pass an MOT before selling? Budget tyres are a smart, safe, and legal way to do so without over-investing.
- ✓ Need to Replace Tyres on a Tight Budget: They provide a safe, brand-new alternative to part-worn tyres when your budget is the main priority.
When to Consider Mid-Range or Premium:
- ⚠ High Annual Mileage (15,000+ miles)
- ⚠ High-Performance Vehicle
- ⚠ Frequent Motorway Driving
