How far does your car take to stop on a wet road? It depends on your tyres more than you’d think.

From around 80kmh, tyre industry testing shows about:
🛞26 metres to stop on a brand new tyre
🛞about 32 metres at 3mm
🛞about 38 to 40 metres at 1.6mm

That’s roughly three car lengths between a new tyre compared to one at the limit. That’s why we always say change at 3mm.

You can call in for a free check during business hours Monday to Friday, or have a read of our tyre safety guide: https://www.gcorbett-motors.com/blog?id=2401

Heading out for the long weekend? Whether you're driving away, taking the kids to the pumpkin patch, or tackling wet roads and muddy parking spots - it’s worth taking two minutes to check your tyres first 🌧️🎃

In heavy rain and surface water, worn tread drastically increases your stopping distance and the risk of aquaplaning. Remember, your tyres are the only things keeping your car stuck to the tarmac.

The legal minimum in Ireland is 1.6mm, but our technicians always recommend changing them at 3mm for wet Winter driving.

If you’re unsure about yours, pop in to see us on the Cork Road during business hours for a quick, free check.

Have a great, safe Bank Holiday weekend!

22/10/2026

The clocks go back this weekend, and the dark, wet evenings are on their way. Keeping Waterford’s drivers safe on the road is something we really care about. So over the next few weeks, our service team will share some simple things you can check to ensure safe journeys on the road.

Between the school runs, darker commutes and the pre-Christmas rush (yes, we said it!), our cars work overtime in Winter - and most of us don’t give them a second thought until something goes wrong. And the last thing anyone needs when juggling a busy week is a flat battery on a frosty morning, smearing wipers in heavy rain, or a tyre warning light on the way to work.

We’ve been shortlisted for Retailer Excellence at the Waterford Chamber of Commerce Waterford Business Awards.

It’s a category for retail businesses who go above and beyond for their customers everyday, so really it belongs to you!

To the ones who come back every year for their service. To the ones on their second, third or fifth (or more!) Skoda, CUPRA, SEAT or Mazda. To the ones who trust us with their child’s first car, after buying from us for decades. To the ones who stayed with us when they fancied a change of brand. And to the ones who drive past another dealer to come to us in Waterford. To all of the new and existing customers who have supported us throughout the last 30+ years.

Thank you for choosing us, and for choosing us again. Thank you to our team, and to Waterford Chamber for the recognition. Congratulations to Adara, House of Waterford and everyone else across the categories 🥂
