Caravan tyre tread maintenance
Q The tyres on my caravan have plenty of treads left, but a friend says I need to replace them when they reach a certain age. Is this correct, and if so, when should I change them?
A Tyres degrade over time and even though they may look like new, the carcass can suffer. It’s recommended that tyres should be changed every five years and if you’re unsure when they were last changed, the date of manufacture can be found stamped on the sidewall in a four-digit format, e.g. 1120 would be November 2020.
