Darker evenings and wetter roads mean less grip and longer stopping distances. That’s when tread depth really counts. The legal limit is 1.6mm, but grip in the wet drops well before then, so it’s worth checking now.

✅ Do the 20p test on every tyre, including the spare
✅ Recheck pressures as it gets colder, since cold air lowers them
✅ Check your lights while you’re at it, you’ll be relying on them more

More than 1 in 5 breakdowns on motorways and major A-roads are tyre-related. A few minutes now could save you a long wait on the hard shoulder.
