If your tyres have a tread depth below 1.6mm, you legally need to replace them. Worn-out tyres are less effective at stopping, especially in wet conditions, which could have disastrous consequences. If your tyres are looking worn or show signs of damage, you can trust the experienced tyre-fitters in BRIDGEND to replace your tyres quickly and at a good price. Whether you’re looking for performance tyres or all-season tyres, you can rely on the Approved Garages network for all your tyre replacement needs!
To book your car’s tyre repair or replacement in BRIDGEND, it’s as simple as choosing from our list of local independent garages below and booking your tyre appointment directly!
You legally need to replace your tyre when the tread depth reaches 1.6mm or less (about the same depth as a 20 pence coin). However, many safety experts recommend replacing them when the tread depth reaches below 3mm. You should also replace your tyres if they are over 5 years old (even if they still have adequate tread depth) or if they have visible damage, such as cracking or bulges.
You should look out for the following signs which indicate that your tyres might need replacing:
Worn tread depth that’s less than 1.6 mm (the legal limit). You can use a 20 pence coin to test if your tread depth is less than this.
Visual cracks, bulges or blisters in the tyre wall.
Frequently low tyre pressure, which could indicate a slow puncture.
Uneven tyre wear.
A whining or thumping sound coming from your tyres.
If you’re not sure if your tyres need replacing, you should book your car in for a tyre inspection at a BRIDGEND garage using Approved Garages.
It’s always recommended to replace your tyres in pairs on the same axle for improved braking, handling and efficiency. Although replacing just one tyre might seem more convenient, especially if you have a puncture in just one tyre, it can cause your car to pull to one side when braking, reducing the amount of control you have over your vehicle.
While it’s not mandatory, it’s always recommended to align your vehicle after a tyre replacement. If your car is misaligned, this can cause the tyres to wear unevenly, meaning you’ll need to replace your tyres more frequently. It can also reduce handling, fuel efficiency and safety.
The Approved Garages network makes it easy to book a tyre replacement and wheel alignment in BRIDGEND. You can book your car’s tyre replacement directly in just a couple of clicks.
Tyre typically last between 20,000 and 40,000 miles or 3-5 years, depending on the tyre quality, maintenance and road conditions. If a car is a front wheel drive, the rear tyres will typically last longer than front tyres.
It’s recommended that you have your car tyres inspected regularly by a professional once they are over three years old to ensure they are still in good condition. Once tyres are over 5 years old, they should be replaced regardless of their condition because the rubber will deteriorate over time.

Tyre fitting typically takes around 30 minutes per tyre, so it would take around 2 hours to replace all 4 tyres. However, it can take longer, depending on the type of vehicle. If you require additional services, such as wheel alignment, which is always recommended when replacing all 4 tyres, then this will take more time.
You can find a trusted independent garage in BRIDGEND using Approved Garages and book tyre fitting directly using our platform. Once you’ve done this, the garage will be able to provide you with an estimation of how long the tyre fitting will take and when you can expect your vehicle to be ready.
