Tyres for EVs & Hybrids

EVs place different demands on tyres due to increased vehicle weight, instant torque and regenerative braking. Using the correct load-rated, low-noise and EV-approved tyres is essential.

We:

  • Fit tyres with the correct load and speed ratings

  • Advise on EV-specific tyre options where required

  • Check for uneven wear caused by alignment or suspension issues

  • Set pressures to manufacturer EV specifications

Correct tyres help maintain stability, braking performance and even wear on electric vehicles.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know when my tyres need replacing?
Tyres should be replaced when tread depth is low, wear is uneven, or there is visible damage such as cracks, bulges or cuts. If you’re unsure, we can carry out a tyre inspection and advise.
Do EVs need different tyres to standard vehicles?
Often, yes. EVs typically require tyres with higher load ratings and lower noise ratings due to battery weight and drivetrain characteristics. We ensure the correct specification tyres are fitted for each EV model.
Should I replace tyres in pairs or all four at once?
Tyres are normally replaced in pairs across the same axle to maintain balanced handling. All four may need replacing if wear levels are similar or if the tyres are aged.
Can worn tyres affect wheel alignment and suspension?
Worn tyres don’t usually cause alignment issues, but poor alignment will rapidly wear tyres. If we see abnormal wear patterns, we may recommend a wheel alignment check.
Will you check my tyre pressures after fitting?
Yes. All tyres are inflated to the correct manufacturer specifications after fitting and balancing.
