Purchasing budget tyres can leave you second guessing yourself. Budget tyres are generally sold at a reduced cost for a reason. Cheap new tyres and second hand tyres keep the bank account happy. However, does purchasing within a selective price range mean you are compromising on safety, quality and longevity? How do you make the best, budget friendly choice? Ultimately a more expensive tyre will offer more features, advanced technology, superior design, longevity and performance. A good quality mid-range tyre will often end up costing you less in the long run. We highly recommend considering investing in your tyre.

Fortunately, there are a number of budget friendly options that still offer safety and performance that you can feel confident driving with.

These differences may include but are not limited to: quality of construction, technology, materials, product testing, higher or lower grade rubber compounds and research.

Bud’s Tyres prioritise roadworthy tyres and requirements QLD. Our company policies are directly influenced by government laws and requirements in Queensland to ensure the safety of our customers. If you purchase any tyre or service from Bud’s Tyres you are guaranteed that your vehicle and associated fitting or service is roadworthy. Our team members strictly adhere to safety and roadworthy guidelines. You won’t just feel confident that your vehicle is roadworthy upon driving away from Bud’s Tyres. You can also drive away knowing that your vehicle has been serviced or tyres have been fitted with an exceptional level of care and attention to detail. We exceed the industry standard for quality control and customer service. Our number one priority is customer satisfaction. We take roadworthy guidelines very seriously. Tyre failure truely can be a matter of life or death. This also applies to our second hand tyre range. Second hand tyres can be incredibly unsafe if purchased from the wrong dealer or outsourced without being inspected throughly. There a number of reasons beyond tread depth and wear that may deem your tyres unroadworthy. Whilst safety for you, your passengers and other motorists is the number one priority, unroadworthy tyres can also result in fines and insurance losses. Tyres are the second reason as to why roadworthy certificates fail. You may need a roadworthy certificate if you: Are transferring your vehicles registration to Queensland from another state or territory within Australia Are registering an unregistered vehicle Transferring vehicle registration to a new owner when selling a car or transferring vehicle registration to a family member Clearing a vehicle defect or a notice of un-roadworthiness. Unroadworthy tyres Tread Wear Tread wear is synonymous with an unroadworthy tyre. Worn tyres are not just a leading cause of motor vehicle accidents but are also easily spotted by police officers. We often are replacing tyres on our customers cars due to the direction of law enforcement. Tread depth is the measurement from the highest point of the tyres rubber, vertical to the deepest groove of the rubber. This can be measured with a ruler or object such as a coin, however we recommend you measure this with a tyre tread depth gauge. Your tread depth should be at least 3mm and will need replacing immediately if they are beyond 3mm although the legal minimum is 1.6mm. Uneven tread wear is also dangerous and can be classified as unroadworthy or illegal if it is below 1.6mm at certain points on the tyres surface. This tread wear is often found on the tread shoulders or in the centre of the tread face. Age While there are no laws addressing tyre age, Queensland Police recommend looking at replacing tyres after 5 years and up to 10 years if they are in good condition. Tyre fitters also stand by the 5 – 10 year rule. Tyre ageing can compromise your safety and the safety of your passengers. Condition If your tyres are worn, cracked or have large cuts in the rubber they will be considered unroadworthy. It is also important to look out for any lumps, bulges and tread separation. As a general rule consider if the tyres structure as been compromised in any way. Pressure Tyre pressure indicates the amount of air inside of a tyre. Each make and model requires a unique pressure. You can find this on your tyre place card, owners manual or by following a tyre pressure chart online. Failure to check tyre pressure will often result in uneven wear, poor vehicle control and potential tyre failure. Size Unapproved size fitted may be considered unroadworthy. Wheels Unapproved wheels may be considered unroadworthy. Queensland Transport Guidelines We have complied a list of the main rules and regulations surrounding tyres and wheels from the website of the Queensland Department of Transport and Main Roads. Keep in mind that we have just highlighted the most relevant points and this document may be good to revise. You can find this downloadable document here. To ensure that road wheels and tyres are of a suitable type and condition and that they provide the necessary load carrying capacity, speed rating and control of the vehicle. Wheels Reasons for rejection: Wheels/rims are not of an approved type and construction. Wheels/rims fitted to an axle or axle group of a vehicle are not of the same size unless otherwise specified by the vehicle manufacturer. Wheels/rims are not secure or are cracked, corroded, bent, buckled or otherwise damaged. Stud or bolt holes are expanded or elongated or wheel and retainer tapers do not match. A spoked wheel does not have all spokes fitted or the spokes are loose, corroded, bent, broken or cracked. Tyres Reasons for rejection: Tyres are not compatible with the rim to which they are fitted and not of a type suitable for normal road use (space-saver wheels excepted). WH All tyres fitted to rims on the same axle are not of the same case construction. Tyres fitted to rims on an axle or axle group are not the same size. For a car or car derivative, the maximum tyre width is more than 1.3 times larger than the vehicle manufacturer’s widest optional tyre width. The tyre width of the narrowest tyre fitted to a vehicle is less than 70 percent of the width of the largest tyre fitted or less than the manufacturer’s narrowest optional tyre and rim as indicated on the manufacturer’s tyre placard. Tyre load ratings are less than the minimum ratings specified originally by the vehicle manufacturer. The speed rating of all tyres, when first manufactured, is not at least 180 km/h unless a lower rating has been specified in legislation. Where a vehicle has been fitted with retreaded tyres, the tyres are not compatible with the rims and do not have a load rating which is adequate for the vehicle’s laden mass. Tyres Tyres do not have a tread pattern at least 1.5 mm deep, other than at tread wear indicators, in a band that runs continuously across the tyre width that normally comes into contact with the road and around the whole circumference of the tyre. Tyre tread, shoulder or side wall rubber are damaged. Tyres have cuts, bulges, tread separation, exposed or damaged cords or other evidence of case failure. Valve stems are cracked, damaged, perished or loose. Regrooved or recut tyres fitted to a motor vehicle are not clearly marked “suitable for regrooving“. Any tyre clearly marked “suitable for regrooving“ is regrooved or recut beyond the maximum permissible groove depth or is regrooved or recut in such a way that the ply or cord is exposed or damaged.

How to prepare your vehicle for summer. Summer is coming and you need to prepare your vehicle for the pending harsh weather conditions of the season. Predictions are telling us we have a long, hot summer in store with severe storms, paired with non-stop rain on the Gold Coast. The time is now to get your tyres replaced and pay attention to other parts of your vehicle that could be considered a safety risk. In Queensland, our winter weather is quite forgiving on our cars. However, the unsympathetic and relentless conditions in summer really do put our cars to the test. Across Australia we experience an average of 500 severe storms annually. Heat can be incredibly damaging and will effect all aspects of your car. The wet roads can be unpredictable and unsafe. Tyres Tyres are without question, the number one thing you should be checking before summer. They are the only thing that keeps your car in contact with the road. Driving in wet weather conditions can be life threatening when your tyres aren’t quite up to scratch. The number one thing to look out for is worn tyre tread and uneven tread wear. Worn tread will dramatically increase your chances of spinning out or aquaplaning in summer storms. Drastic change in temperature can cause your tyre pressure to drastically change. PSI levels should be monitored. Summer Tyres Hot temperatures specifically are harsh on your tyres. Summer tyres are designer for hot temperatures. Harder compounds paired with a unique tread pattern are used for summer tyres. They improve grip on dry road surfaces and in wet summer storms, and target hazards like aquaplaning. All Season Tyres All season tyres or all weather tyres are suited to most Gold Coast motorists. As the Gold Coast doesn’t usually face extreme weather conditions all season tyres offer safety throughout the entire year. They save your from changing your tyres repeatedly throughout the year by comparing elements of summer and winter tyres and can therefore brave the wind and rain. It is worth considering that we are often exposed to serve storm conditions and heavy rainfall sporadically throughout the year. An all season tyre that addresses concerns of aquaplaning. Hot Tips Have an emergency kit on board in preparation for harsh weather conditions Check your headlights Always carry a bottle of water and store food in your car incase you have to pull over for a long period of time when driving in a storm Store your vehicle in a garage or similar if you can Have a plan in place to get your car uncover in the event of a major storm to avoid hail damage Do not drive through a flooded area and park away from areas with a high risk of flood Check the condition of your windshield wipes Check fluid levels of your windshield wipes Clean the inside of your windshield Check your cars fluid levels Get your battery and brakes checked Ensure your car insurance covers storm and flood damage What to do in a storm Driving in a severe storm is highly dangerous and should be avoided. If you find yourself driving in a storm the most important thing to remember is to drive slow. This also applies to driving in all wet weather as the roads are extra slippery. Driving at a slower speed gives to more time to react. Do not drive through floodwaters even if they appear shallow as there can be a heavy undercurrent. If visibility is impacted and it is hailing you should pull over away from any trees or large objects. This may be safer than racing to the nearest uncover parking. Potholes and puddles should be avoided when they can. Free Tyre Safety Check Come in-store for a free tyre and brake safety check from the experts at Bud’s Tyres.

Bud’s Tyres have the best cheap mud tyres on the coast. Muddies are something a 4WD owner simply cannot go without. 4×4 mud-terrain tyres are designed for a distinct purpose, to go off the beaten-track. In the off-road world you can go anywhere with mud tyres. The bigger the better. If you often find yourself driving through bush tracks, sharp slopes, uneven trails, jagged surfaces, loose soil, mud and sand mud tyres might just be for you. Mud tyres are ideal for the roughest of off-road conditions. Alternatively, all terrain tyres may be a better option if your off-road adventures are limited. Design Mud tyres are designed for performance with a softer rubber compound, wide gaps and large tread blocks to get you out of every sticky situation. The construction allows the tyre to be more puncture resistant and durable. Muddies are recognisable with their aggressive tread pattern and dominating features including more tread which often speak to their size. They are self-cleaning to provide maximum grip off-road. On the shoulder (between the tread and sidewall) of mud tyres are side bites to bite into the walls of ground ruts and terrain. When you are crawling up tricky terrain side bites help to achieve a forward motion. The Benefits Self-cleaning as the tyre spins Tread design can cut through mud Superior traction and grip The Disadvantages Noise- mud tyres are loud when driving with them however are even louder on the highway and bitumen, particularly at high speeds. Cost Fuel economy Longer stopping distance All Terrain If MT tyres sound like they would cater for some but not all of your needs, AT tyres might just be for you. If you occasionally go off-road but spend most of your time in the car on the road all terrain tyres are your match made in heaven. The design is varied from a highway terrain tyre in that it can go anywhere your 4×4 can go. This includes bitumen, sand, mud, rock and loose soil. The number one concern with an All Terrain tyre is compromising comfort and safety in your day-to-day life. With a Mud Terrain tyre- you will be without question. Ultimately, they won’t be as smooth as the best passenger tyre on the market but with todays technology they are pretty much just as good. It is fair enough that you would still want durability, comfort, minimal noise, a good looking tyre, superior braking, safety and longevity. With the right AT tyre you can have it all… with very little compromise. For example, you may have to go a slightly noisier tyre if you were looking for a tough, aggressive and durable tyre.

Tyre size: upsizing and downsizing. How does tyre sizing work and how to I measure this? If you are a little bit unsure as to how tyre sizing works and how to measure your tyre size you have come to the right place. Your tyre size is individual to your vehicle and the manufactures specifications. You can find this on your tyre sidewall, tyre placard, in your owner’s manual, online or by using a tyre size calculator. Ultimately, there are so many tyre and wheel options it can be confusing at times. Motorists really are spoilt for choice. Give us a call today to discuss tyre sizing, specific to you and your vehicle with the experts. Tyre specifications and guidelines Your vehicle is only suited to a select few tyre size combinations which are ideal for safely travelling on the road. If steering away from the vehicle manufactures nominated tyre size, keep in mind your vehicle could become un-roadworthy. Size is not the only thing to consider when selecting a tyre. It is important to be aware of load, tread, tyre design, performance, PSI and much more. How to measure your tyre size? You can find the sequence of numbers and letters indicating your tyre size on your existing tyre on its sidewall, search engines, by using a tyre size calculator, in your owners manual or tyre placard. The letter at the beginning of the sequence generally indicates the type of vehicle such as passenger or light truck. The following three numbers suggest tyre width in millimetres from sidewall to sidewall. The following two numbers suggest aspect ratio and construction. Aspect ratio is the height of the tyres cross-section to its width. The letter is symbolic of construction meaning the letter ‘R’ stands for radial so that the layers run radially across the tyre. The following number indicates wheel diameter. Wheel sizes are defined by diameter x width. This number will tell us the wheel size the tyre was intended to fit. The end of the sequence is symbolic of load and speed rating. You can find a load and speed index table online. Upsizing It is safe to minimally upsize your tyre if you were looking for wider tyres which fit larger diameter wheels. However, you must still meet your vehicle manufactures guidelines. Plus sizing your tyre is pretty common when aesthetics are at play. Larger tyres and wheels are quite distinctive and appear dominating. Many motorists choose to upsize tyres as it can improve performance such as steering and braking, grip and ride comfort. However, you may be compromising on fuel economy and acceleration. The maximum increase in combined wheel and tyre diameter allowed in Queensland is plus 15mm or minus 26mm. Within those limits, any rim diameter is allowed. You can find a tyre plus sizing calculator online or speak with the experts at Bud’s Tyres to match your performance goals. Downsizing Downsizing tyre size is quite uncommon in Australia. You must also pair your tyre with the appropriate wheel size. Attempting to fit a narrow tyre onto a wheel by forcing the sidewalls to stretch wider than they are designed for is what you should be avoiding. The most common reason and individual may downsize is if they are after narrow and smaller snow tyres. The law When alternative tyres and wheels are fitted to your vehicle you must follow local legislation and guidelines. It is also crucial that you contact your insurance provider beforehand. This is so that any possible future claims are not rejected as a result of vehicle modification. If your vehicle is under warranty is may also be a good idea to check with your manufacturer. Significant modifications need to be assessed by a licensed certifier. Strict standards are in place to specify allowable combinations of wheel and tyre sizes. Changes to wheel and tyre size may alter your vehicles handling and performance and must be regulated. You can find the wheel and tyre combinations recommended by your vehicles manufacture on your tyre placard. You must not fit wheels with rim widths less than the minimum width fitted by the vehicle manufacturer for the particular model. Rules The alternative wheel must not increase wheel track of passenger cars (or derivatives) by more than 25 mm beyond the maximum specified by the vehicle manufacturer. The wheel track of off-road four wheel drive vehicles and goods vehicles must not be increased by more than 50mm beyond the maximum specified by the vehicle manufacturer for the particular model. Where non-original axle or suspension components are fitted, the wheel offset in relation to the axle or stub axle assembly used shall not be increased by more than 12.5 mm each side of the vehicle based on the specifications for the axle components. The wheel and tyre must be contained within the bodywork or mudguards, including any flares, when the wheels are aligned straight. The wheel and tyre must not contact any part of the body or suspension under all operating conditions, including when the front wheels are steered to full lock with the suspension fully compressed. All wheels fitted to an axle must be of the same construction, diameter, offset, width and mounting configuration, except for spare wheels used in an emergency situation. The wheel must not prevent the wheel nuts from fully engaging their studs. The wheel must be designed for the particular hub/axle in respect to bolt pitch circle diameter and wheel nut tapers. Wheels with slotted stud holes must not be used. Speedometer accuracy must be maintained and adjusted where necessary. Wheel spacers or adaptors must not be used for wheel conversions between the wheel mounting face and the wheels unless fitted as original equipment by the vehicle manufacturer. Which tyre size is right for me? Information regarding plus size tyres can be overwhelming and contradicting. When considering alternative wheels and tyres for your vehicle, it is best to talk to the team at Bud’s Tyres to guide you. Each circumstance is unique including vehicle type and application hence why it is best to talk to the experts.

How to Avoid a Flat Tyre? Too often a flat tyre is considered inevitable. It could happen at any time, anywhere. The question becomes, how to avoid a flat tyre when you cannot control it? Sure… there are anomalies waiting upon your daily route such as exposure to a pothole or, but these things are highly unlikely on our Gold Coast roads. What you can do: Our number one tip: keep your eye on the road. Hitting the curb, running over a pothole or exposure to road debris becomes a possibility if you are not paying attention. Always watching the road ahead will ensure you can navigate to your destination safely, without the hassle of a flat. Check your spare. You might find yourself driving on your spare, following a flat tyre… and it pops! This is a common occurrence with spare tyres as they may be too old or not regularly checked. You should check the spare tyre pressure at least once a month. Tyre pressure should be checked regularly. We recommend checking with a tyre pressure gauge every few weeks. Successively, tyres should be inflated at the right pressure based on your vehicle’s requirements. Heavy loads can also cause a flat. You could inflate your tyres just that little bit extra to help with the load. Be careful not to over-pump. Rotate your tyres and monitor uneven wear. You should rotate your tyres under the influence of your mechanic. If you are noticing uneven wear on one or two of your tyres it might be time to bring your car in. This can stretch out the life of your tyres and prevent a flat from tyre wear. Avoid road construction or poor road conditions. By taking a few extra minutes out of your day to steer clear of a compromised road surface, it might save you hours. If you are soon due for a new set of tyres, this might be a particularly good idea.
