🤔 This one can feel a little backwards...

Your front tyres do the steering, and on many cars they do the driving too, so surely that's where the newest pair should go? Not necessarily.

When replacing two tyres, the general recommendation is to fit the new pair to the rear, helping the car stay more stable when grip is limited - especially with the rain we've been getting, and are due to get!

Don't leave it to chance! Get in touch and we can check what's already fitted and make sure the replacements go where they should ✅

“Think I’ll get another month out of them.” 😅

With the cost of owning a car being what it is, we understand why people try to squeeze as much life as possible out of their tyres. In fact, new RAC research found that 7% of us admit we’ve put off replacing worn tyres.

The problem is that there’s a difference between getting the full usable life from a tyre and pushing it beyond safe and legal limits!

If you’re looking at yours and wondering whether they’ve still got a bit of life left, you don’t need to guess. Pop into Performance Tyres in Anniesland or Ayr and we can check them and tell you where you actually stand.

🚗 Bought a used car recently?

The tyres might have plenty of tread left, but that doesn’t necessarily tell you how old they are...

Take a look at the sidewall and you’ll find a four-digit production code. Something like 2522 means the tyre was made in the 25th week of 2022.

If you’re unsure about the age or condition of what’s fitted to your car, pop into Performance Tyres and we can check them properly.

⚠️ Good tread is important, but age and overall condition matter too!

📢 Sometimes the cheapest tyre isn't the cheapest tyre...

A lower-priced part-worn might save money on the day, but you're also starting with less tread and an unknown history.

That doesn't mean every used tyre is automatically unsafe. It does mean you should know exactly what you're buying.

If you're trying to keep costs sensible, have a look at the new budget options too. Our online booking tool makes it easy to compare suitable tyres and fully fitted prices for your car before deciding on an option.

“I only clipped the kerb.” 🙄

If by “clipped” you mean there was a thud loud enough to make you drive home with the radio or tunes turned down, give the tyre a quick look!

The alloy might get most of the attention, but a hard impact can damage your tyre sidewall too. If you spot a new cut, lump or bulge, that’s not something to ignore. Give us a call to get it checked over ASAP.

We've probably all had that moment at the petrol-station air machine.

You've got the hose attached, the screen is asking for a PSI... and suddenly you realise you don't actually know what number to put in. Here's the bit worth remembering: don't just copy the pressure written on the tyre itself.

The number you actually want is usually hiding in a much less obvious place - typically inside the driver's door or sometimes in your fuel flap.

Worth knowing before you're standing there holding up the queue. 😅

Found 10, 20 or even more tyres that all fit your car? Here's one way to narrow them down. Tyres of the same size can still perform differently, which is where the tyre label becomes useful.

It lets you compare three characteristics:

🌧️ Wet grip
⛽ Fuel efficiency
🔊 External rolling noise

So, for example, if you're comparing several tyres that all fit your car, the label gives you another way to understand what you're getting rather than making the decision on price alone.

If you're due new tyres, try the online booking tool on our website. It'll show you a range of suitable options for your car, including their tyre-label ratings and fully fitted prices, so you can compare them before choosing and booking your fitting.

Passed your test within the last two years?

Then 6 is a number worth remembering!

TyreSafe is putting the spotlight back on young and newly qualified drivers this autumn, because tyre offences can have a much bigger impact when you've only recently passed your test.

🛞 Illegal tyre: 3 penalty points
⚠️ Two illegal tyres: potentially 6 points
❌ 6 points within your first two years: licence revoked

If you've recently passed and you're not confident checking tread or tyre condition yourself, bring the car into Performance Tyres in Anniesland or Ayr. A quick check now could save a much bigger headache later!

That little heart-in-mouth moment behind the wheel usually comes out of nowhere 😬

Someone pulls out. Traffic suddenly stops. You hit standing water. You have to react before you’ve really had time to think about it. You can’t plan when that moment happens, but you can make sure your tyres are ready!

That’s the thinking behind Tyre Safety Month 2026 and its “ACT Before You REact” campaign throughout October. A good place to start is a simple ACT check:

💨 Air pressure
🔍 Condition
📏 Tread

If anything doesn’t look right, or you’re simply not sure what you’re looking for, pop into Performance Tyres in Anniesland or Ayr .

Winter is coming... ❄️

Maybe not quite yet, but October is just around the corner and your tyres should be ready for the cold conditions, wet and icy roads.

If your tyres are already getting worn, now's the time to have them checked rather than waiting until the colder weather arrives. We can check your current tyres, advise on the right options for your driving and supply and fit replacements across a wide range of brands and budgets.

Visit our website to use our handy online tyre checker and get yourself booked in!
