Exact size and fitment
We assess full front and rear size, wheel diameter, load index, speed rating, construction, and staggered arrangement. This matters because a tyre that mounts physically can still be unsuitable for vehicle load, handling balance, high-speed capability, or electronic systems. The recommendation identifies the required specification, the available choices, and any tradeoff that affects price, comfort, durability, or safety. We confirm the selected product before fitting and report related work separately.
Model approval
We assess manufacturer approval marks, original fitment guidance, availability, and budget. This matters because an unapproved alternative should not be presented as identical when its specification or behavior differs. The recommendation identifies the required specification, the available choices, and any tradeoff that affects price, comfort, durability, or safety. We confirm the selected product before fitting and report related work separately.
Two or four tyres
We assess tread depth, pattern, construction, age, and rolling circumference across both axles. This matters because large differences can affect handling and all-wheel-drive operation, so all four tyres must be measured. The recommendation identifies the required specification, the available choices, and any tradeoff that affects price, comfort, durability, or safety. We confirm the selected product before fitting and report related work separately.
Dubai heat and tyre age
We assess date code, sidewall cracking, storage, pressure history, repairs, flat spots, and impact damage. This matters because tread depth alone cannot show whether a tyre remains structurally suitable. The recommendation identifies the required specification, the available choices, and any tradeoff that affects price, comfort, durability, or safety. We confirm the selected product before fitting and report related work separately.
Pressure and TPMS
We assess cold pressure, valve condition, sensor operation, punctures, wheel sealing, and system calibration. This matters because a warning can have several causes and should not be cleared without checking pressure loss. The recommendation identifies the required specification, the available choices, and any tradeoff that affects price, comfort, durability, or safety. We confirm the selected product before fitting and report related work separately.
Wheel protection
We assess painted, polished, or diamond-cut finishes, clean mounting surfaces, suitable equipment, and controlled tightening. This matters because careful fitting reduces cosmetic damage and helps prevent avoidable vibration. The recommendation identifies the required specification, the available choices, and any tradeoff that affects price, comfort, durability, or safety. We confirm the selected product before fitting and report related work separately.
Balancing and vibration
We assess mass imbalance, tyre uniformity, bent wheels, hub contamination, spacers, and suspension wear. This matters because balancing cannot straighten a wheel or cure a defective tyre, so unresolved vibration needs further diagnosis. The recommendation identifies the required specification, the available choices, and any tradeoff that affects price, comfort, durability, or safety. We confirm the selected product before fitting and report related work separately.
Alignment and uneven wear
We assess inner-edge wear, feathering, steering offset, shoulder wear, and suspension condition. This matters because new tyres should not be exposed to a known geometry problem that can damage them quickly. The recommendation identifies the required specification, the available choices, and any tradeoff that affects price, comfort, durability, or safety. We confirm the selected product before fitting and report related work separately.
Puncture repair limits
We assess damage location and size, internal condition, previous repairs, and whether the tyre was driven flat. This matters because sidewall, shoulder, large, repeated, or structural damage usually requires replacement. The recommendation identifies the required specification, the available choices, and any tradeoff that affects price, comfort, durability, or safety. We confirm the selected product before fitting and report related work separately.
Comfort or response
We assess wet grip, cabin noise, steering response, ride comfort, mileage, approval, and availability. This matters because the best choice satisfies every required rating while matching how the owner uses the car. The recommendation identifies the required specification, the available choices, and any tradeoff that affects price, comfort, durability, or safety. We confirm the selected product before fitting and report related work separately.
Date codes and stock
We assess production information, storage condition, matched set availability, and special-order timing. This matters because the fitting appointment should follow product confirmation so the car is not held while the correct sizes are sourced. The recommendation identifies the required specification, the available choices, and any tradeoff that affects price, comfort, durability, or safety. We confirm the selected product before fitting and report related work separately.
Handover checks
We assess pressure, leaks, balance, torque process, TPMS status, and visible wheel condition. This matters because the finished car should leave with clear pressures and any remaining alignment, wheel, or suspension concern explained. The recommendation identifies the required specification, the available choices, and any tradeoff that affects price, comfort, durability, or safety. We confirm the selected product before fitting and report related work separately.
