Tyres in Waitara
Your tyres are the only part of the car touching the road. Worn tyres mean longer stopping distances, especially in the wet.
5.0from 30 Google reviewsTyres looking tired? Grip matters.
In NSW the legal minimum tread depth is 1.5 mm, but grip in the wet drops off well before that. Most tyres have tread wear indicators moulded into the grooves to show when it's time.
Uneven wear is a clue. It usually means a suspension, alignment or pressure problem that should be fixed so the new tyres last.
Time to check your tyres when
- Tread is close to the wear indicator bars
- Wear is uneven across the tyre or between sides
- Cracks, bulges or cuts in the sidewall
- The car vibrates at speed
- A tyre keeps losing pressure
What Kartech checks
- Tread depth across each tyre
- Wear patterns and what's causing them
- Sidewall damage and tyre age
- Pressures, including the spare
- Suspension and steering parts that affect tyre wear

Tyres questions
What is the legal tread depth in NSW?
The legal minimum is 1.5 mm across the tyre. For safety in the wet, it's worth replacing tyres before they reach that point.
Why are my tyres wearing unevenly?
Usually incorrect pressures, worn suspension or steering parts, or an alignment issue. Kartech can check the cause so replacement tyres wear evenly.
