Tire service

Tire Service

At General Cars and Parts we offer a comprehensive tyre service, which is also part of our maintenance.

During the tyre service we check several important points, such as:

- Tyre pressure
- Tread depth
- Damage to the inside and outside
- On request we check the direction of rotation and the tyre type

We have three types of tyres available: summer tyres, winter tyres and 4-season tyres.
For the MOT inspection, a minimum tread depth of 1.6 to 2.5 mm is required, depending on the type of car and tyre.

Tyre requirements winter abroad

If you are planning to travel abroad, especially during the winter months or for a winter sports holiday, it is important to check whether your tyres have the snowflake logo. This is mandatory in several European countries. In addition, snow chains may also be mandatory. You can find the specific rules for the countries you are travelling to on this page of the ANWB website.

Load capacity & speed

Finally, it is essential that your tyres are suitable for the load capacity of your car and that the maximum speed is stated on the tyre. We are ready to provide you with suitable advice for your vehicle. If you have any questions or would like more information, please let me know!
