Tyre maintenance is crucial to keep you safe on the roads - especially during the colder months.
But maintaining your tyres in the cheapest way possible could actually cost more in the long run. In some cases, depending on how you manage your car's tyres, you could even be hit with a fine of up to £100 and handed three penalty points on your licence.
Graham Conway, managing director at Select Car Leasing, warned you shouldn't go with the cheapest option available when it comes to replacing tyres, particularly if you suffer a puncture. He said: "There are big differences between the types of tyres available - beyond just the brand - and mixing and matching them can be dangerous and illegal. "
