Car tyres

Replacing your car tyres is one of those jobs that always seems to pop up at the worst time. Whether it’s worn tread, a puncture, or a safety check that fails right before your rego is due, most drivers don’t plan ahead for tyre replacements.

With Easi, you don’t have to, as you’ll never get caught with a bald tyre with a novated lease.

When you take out a novated lease with Easi, your car tyres are covered as part of your lease package. That means tyre replacements are already taken care of in your lease payments, saving you time, money, and hassle down the line.

The Benefits of Bundling New Tyres with Your Lease

There’s no denying that tyres wear out faster than most people expect. And when they do, the price tag for a full replacement can be a nasty surprise. That’s why having your car tyres included in your lease plan makes good sense, especially if you’re clocking up a lot of distance on your odometer.

Here’s how bundling tyre replacements with your lease can help:

• Tyre costs are built into your lease payments, so there are no surprise payments.
• Your tyres will be replaced when they need to be and no later, ensuring safe driving.
• The team at Easi can sort bookings, giving you peace of mind.
• With one consistent payment covering all your car’s needs, budgeting is made a breeze.
• If you’re a frequent driver using your car for commuting, work travel, or regional driving, tyre replacement is made easy.

It’s a smarter way to manage one of the most important and overlooked parts of your vehicle without stretching your budget.

How Do I Know When I Need New Car Tyres?

Knowing when to replace your car tyres can save you from breakdowns or uneven tyre wear that affects your car’s performance. Most tyres don’t fail all at once since they wear down slowly, often without obvious warning signs. That’s why regular checks are important.

Low Tyre Tread Depth

The tread of a car’s tyre is what allows the tyre to disperse water effectively. This means that as tyre tread wears down over time, grip is reduced. In Australia, the legal minimum tread depth is 1.6mm. If your tread is close to that, then it’s time to replace your tyres.

Many tyre brands and tyre shops have tread wear indicators built in to make this easier to spot depending on tyre size.

Uneven Tyre Wear from Cracks or Bulges

If you notice any cracks, bulging spots, it’s possible your car tyre has poor alignment or damage. These are signs that the tyre may fail and should be inspected promptly, especially since you don’t want major failures on a busy freeway.

Poor Driving Experience

If your car vibrates while driving or feels less stable when cornering or braking, worn tyres could be the cause. A sudden drop in fuel efficiency or grip can also point to tyre issues that need investigation.

General Tyre Age

Even if your tyres appear to be running fine, age can still be a factor. Most manufacturers recommend replacing tyres every five to six years, regardless of wear, due to rubber breakdown over time.
