🧠 Why This Post Matters

We’ve replaced over 8,000 tyres across Britain’s roads.
We know which ones fail, and which ones last — because we’re out there every single day.

So here’s what actually works — not just what the tyre shop upsells.

🔝 Top 5 Motorway-Trusted Tyres (2025)

• Overworn part-worns
• Tyres used beyond legal limit (under 1.6mm tread)

‍

👀 What Makes a Good Motorway Tyre?

• Tread rating above B

💡 Insider Tip

“Always replace in pairs on the same axle. And if you’re doing 20,000+ miles a year — spend that extra £30 per tyre. It’ll save you hours on the hard shoulder.”
