Maintaining your car's tyres is important for safety. Having tyres in excellent condition ensures good road grip and significantly reduces replacement costs.

This guide shows you how to replace car tyres with a few simple steps. Replace the tyre in case of a puncture or accident, or when the tread depth is no longer adequate.

Lift the vehicle, keeping the handbrake engaged. Start raising it with the jack, and without lifting the tyre off the ground, loosen the wheel bolts counterclockwise using the appropriate spanner.

Raise the vehicle enough to remove the tyre and fit the new one.

Once all tyres have been inflated to the recommended pressure, turn on the ignition to check that the light has disappeared: if it is still present, it may be necessary to drive for a few miles, allowing the sensors to work and thus turning off the light.
