Free Tyre Health Check in Lincoln – What’s Included

Free Tyre Health Check in Lincoln – What’s Included

By Andrews Car Centre – Your Local Tyre Safety Experts

Not sure if your tyres are still safe? Heard a strange noise while driving? Or maybe you’ve just hit a pothole and want to be sure everything’s okay?

At Andrews Car Centre in Lincoln, we offer a free tyre health check to give you complete peace of mind — no pressure, no obligation, just honest advice from a garage you can trust.

Here’s what we check, and why it matters.


🔍 What’s Included in a Free Tyre Check?

Our technicians carry out a quick but thorough inspection of your tyres to make sure you’re safe and legal on the road.

✅ Tread Depth Measurement

We’ll check all four tyres to make sure the tread is above the UK legal minimum of 1.6mm — and advise if you're nearing the limit.

Did you know? Most experts recommend replacing tyres at 3mm for optimum grip and braking performance.


✅ Tyre Pressure Check

We’ll check the pressure on all tyres (including the spare if fitted) and inflate them to the correct manufacturer settings.

Proper pressure improves:

  • Fuel economy

  • Handling and braking

  • Tyre lifespan


✅ Sidewall Condition

We look for:

  • Cracks

  • Bulges

  • Cuts or embedded objects

Even small sidewall damage can weaken the tyre and lead to sudden failure — especially on motorways or under heavy load.


✅ Tyre Age & Wear Pattern

Uneven tyre wear could indicate:

  • Wheel alignment issues

  • Worn suspension components

  • Over/under-inflation

We’ll also check your tyres’ manufacturing dates — tyres over 6 years old can start to deteriorate, even if they look okay.


⚠️ Why a Tyre Check Matters

Worn or damaged tyres are one of the most common reasons for MOT failure — and a major safety risk, especially in wet or cold conditions.

A free check could help you:

  • Avoid a blowout

  • Catch early damage

  • Pass your MOT

  • Improve comfort and fuel efficiency
