Our honest recommendation for Aldershot drivers
The Hampshire area rarely sees sustained snowfall or temperatures locked below 7°C for long periods. A quality all-season tyre handles the GU postcode climate well without the cost and inconvenience of a seasonal swap or second set of wheels.
If you regularly drive to France, Switzerland or Germany in winter, a dedicated winter tyre set on a second set of steel wheels is worth the investment for both safety and running costs.
- Michelin CrossClimate 2 is our top all-season recommendation for most cars. Consistently class-leading in independent tests.
- Continental AllSeasonContact 2 is our recommendation for German and premium cars. Strong EU A wet grip rating.
- Goodyear Vector 4Seasons Gen-3 is a strong value option for mid-range vehicles.

Tyre Safety: Tread Depth, Legal Limits & TPMS
A worn or under-inflated tyre is one of the most common causes of loss of control on UK roads. Here is what every driver should know.
1.6mm legal minimum
UK law requires 1.6mm across the central three-quarters of the tyre around its full circumference. Below this: a fine of up to £2,500 and 3 penalty points per tyre. Experts recommend replacing at 3mm.
The 20p coin test
Insert a 20p coin into the main tread grooves. If the outer band of the coin is visible, your tread depth may be approaching 3mm and you should book a check. Do this test at multiple points on each tyre as wear can be uneven.
Tyre pressure & TPMS
Under-inflated tyres increase fuel consumption, cause uneven wear and reduce handling response. If your TPMS (tyre pressure monitoring) light comes on, do not ignore it. We reset TPMS as part of every tyre fit at no extra cost.
Tyre age: DOT code
Rubber degrades over time regardless of tread depth. The DOT code on the tyre sidewall ends in a 4-digit week/year number (e.g. 2824 = week 28 of 2024). Most manufacturers recommend replacing tyres over 6 years old. Read our tyre age guide.
Free tyre safety check at GForce
We carry out a complimentary tyre safety check on every visit regardless of why you came in. Tread depth, pressure, sidewall condition and DOT age are all checked and reported to you at no extra cost.

OEM Homologated Tyres: What the Marks on Your Sidewall Mean
If your car came from the factory with a small letter or symbol on the tyre sidewall, that is an OEM homologation mark. You should replace those tyres with the same approval mark.
BMW Star & Mini
Engineered to BMW's specific ride, handling and noise targets. A standard tyre can feel noticeably stiffer or noisier in a BMW designed around a star-rated compound.
Mercedes MO & MO1
MO denotes Mercedes Original Equipment specification. MO1 applies to AMG models with specific reinforced sidewall requirements for performance driving.
Porsche N0, N1, N2, N3
Each N-number corresponds to a specific generation of Porsche approval. Using the wrong N-rating changes the carefully engineered handling balance of your Porsche.
Tesla T0 & Audi AO
T0 tyres carry a foam acoustic layer inside to reduce road noise in electric cars and are reinforced for EV torque. AO marks denote Audi Original Equipment specification.
We verify the correct OEM mark before every order. When you book a tyre with us we confirm the approval mark for your specific vehicle before placing the order.
Not sure which OEM mark your car needs? Call us with your reg and we will check instantly.

Tyres Aldershot FAQs
Honest answers to the tyre questions Aldershot drivers ask us most.
We offer same-day tyre fitting for most common sizes. Call or WhatsApp us in the morning and we will usually be able to get you in the same day. We keep popular sizes in stock on site at our Blackwater Way workshop so there is no waiting for an order to arrive.
Our tyre price includes supply, fitting, wheel balancing and TPMS sensor reset where required. We do not add these as separate invoice lines. The price we quote is the price you pay, with no surprise extras at the end.
The UK legal minimum is 1.6mm across the central three-quarters of the tyre around its full circumference. Driving on illegal tyres can result in a fine of up to £2,500 and 3 penalty points per tyre. Tyre safety experts recommend replacing at 3mm because wet stopping distances increase significantly below that threshold.
Your tyre size is printed on the sidewall of your current tyres in the format 205/55 R16 91V. The first number is the tyre width in millimetres, the second is the sidewall height as a percentage of the width, and R16 is the wheel rim diameter in inches. The final number and letter are the load index and speed rating. You can also use our registration lookup at the top of the page to confirm your size automatically.
Winter tyres are not a legal requirement in the UK, but they outperform summer tyres when temperatures fall below 7°C. For most Hampshire drivers, a quality all-season tyre such as the Michelin CrossClimate 2 is a practical year-round alternative that removes the need for a seasonal swap. If you regularly drive in France, Switzerland or Germany in winter, dedicated winter tyres on a second set of wheels are worth the investment for both safety and running costs.
Yes. We supply and fit run-flat tyres for BMW, Mini, Mercedes and other vehicles that require them. We confirm the correct OEM approval mark before ordering so you always receive the right specification, and we include TPMS sensor reset with every run-flat fit at no extra cost.
OEM homologated tyres carry a manufacturer-specific approval mark on the sidewall, such as the BMW star, Mercedes MO, Porsche N-rating or Tesla T0. These marks mean the tyre has been engineered and tested to the exact ride, handling and noise targets for that specific vehicle. If your car came from the factory with marked tyres, replacing them with a generic alternative can noticeably change how the car handles and feels. We always check the correct mark for your vehicle before sourcing tyres.
Yes. We stock commercial-load C-rated van tyres for Ford Transit, Volkswagen Transporter, Mercedes Sprinter, Renault Trafic and other common light commercial vehicles. We always check the correct load index and speed rating before fitting. Using a passenger car tyre on a van is illegal if the load index is insufficient for the vehicle's maximum weight.
No. Wheel balancing corrects the distribution of weight around the tyre and wheel assembly to prevent vibration at speed. Wheel alignment adjusts the angles of your wheels relative to each other and the road surface to prevent uneven tyre wear and pulling to one side. Both affect tyre life and safety, but they are separate procedures. We recommend a wheel alignment check every time you fit new tyres. Book a wheel alignment check.
We dispose of your old tyres responsibly through a licensed tyre recycling scheme. This is included in your fitting cost. You do not need to make any separate arrangements or take old tyres away with you.
