RUN-FLAT TYRES.
Many MINIs are fitted with run-flat tyres - this means that even with a puncture, you can safely drive for up to 50 miles at 50 mph until you reach a MINI Centre. You can spot if your car has run-flat tyres by checking the side walls of your tyres. If they are run-flat tyres they will have a circle with RSC inside. This stands for ‘Run System Component’ and indicates your car has run-flat tyres.
TYRE SAFETY.
You can check your tyre tread by using a depth gauge or the tyre wear indicators that you'll find within the base of the tyre tread groove. Once the tyre tread has worn below these indicators your tyres are illegal. We recommend you replace your tyres when they're down to 3mm, as by this point, road-holding, acceleration and braking will already be compromised, especially in wet and wintry conditions. Remember, when your tyres are below the legal limit this can result in a fine and penalty points on your driving license.
Tyre pressure can also have a serious effect on the way your tyres wear and your car handles. Make sure to regularly check your tyres to ensure the tyre pressure is correct as this will maintain the life of your tyres for longer.
MINI are on hand to assist you with a tyre health check should you need us to, and we can advise the correct MINI approved Star Marked Tyre for your car if a replacement is required. Get in touch with us to find out more about MINI approved Star Marked Tyres.
MINI Cold Weather Wheels and Tyres.
As the temperature dips to 7°C and below, standard tyres harden and no longer provide optimum adhesion, compromising performance when accelerating, braking and cornering.
Switching to MINI Cold Weather Wheels and Tyres for the colder months not only increases safety but, since they wear more slowly than standard tyres in low temperatures, they last longer and provide cost-effective winter motoring. And what's more, MINI Cold Weather Wheels and Tyres start at extremely competitive prices.
