INSPECTION.

Tyres

Having a good set of tyres on your car is very important and a legal requirement. The minimum legal tread depth is 1.6mm; however, we advise and recommend you changing your tyres at 3mm. As the tread depth reduces, the tyre’s ability to remove water from the road surface reduces, increasing the risk of aquaplaning and increasing the vehicle’s stopping distance. Please pop in to Regent Autos for a FREE TYRE SAFETY CHECK.  Should you need a replacement tyre, We carry a large range of tyres in stock and can fit there & then. You can also buy with confidence with our “Price Promise”.
