Making the right choice is crucial for your safety, comfort, and overall driving experience. In this comprehensive guide, we'll walk you through the key factors to consider when purchasing new tyres for your vehicle in the Indian market.
Tyre Size and Type:
Begin by checking your car's manufacturer-recommended tyre size, which is usually mentioned in the owner's manual or on a placard inside the driver's side door. Ensure that the new tyres you choose match this specification. Additionally, consider the type of tyres suitable for your driving needs - options include all-season, summer, and winter tyres.
Tread Pattern and Depth:
The tread pattern plays a crucial role in your car's grip on the road. In India, where diverse road conditions are prevalent, opting for a tread design that suits your driving environment is essential. Additionally, check the tread depth - deeper treads provide better traction, especially in wet and slippery conditions.
Performance Ratings:
Tyres come with various performance ratings, including speed and load indexes. These ratings indicate the maximum speed and load-carrying capacity that the tyre can handle. Choose tyres that match or exceed your vehicle's requirements for optimal performance and safety.
Weather Conditions:
Consider the weather conditions in your region. In India, where the climate can vary significantly, selecting tyres that perform well in different weather conditions is important. Some tyres are designed for specific climates, providing better performance in hot summers or rainy seasons.
Brand and Reputation:
Stick to reputable tyre brands with a proven track record for quality and durability. Research customer reviews and ratings to get insights into the performance of specific tyre models.
Budget:
While it's essential to prioritize safety and performance, it's also important to consider your budget. Explore options within your price range, but remember that investing in quality tyres is an investment in your safety and the longevity of your vehicle.
Warranty and After-Sales Service:
Check the warranty offered by the tyre manufacturer. A good warranty indicates the manufacturer's confidence in their product. Additionally, inquire about after-sales services and support in case you encounter any issues with your tyres.
By keeping these factors in mind, you'll be well-equipped to make an informed decision when purchasing new tyres for your car in India. Ensure your safety on the road and enhance your driving experience by choosing the right tyres tailored to your vehicle and driving conditions.

Hands down THE FINEST INDIAN YT VIDEO on tyres. A killer if not taken care of. My junior doctor died because his tyres burst in expressway.
Thanks you two, God bless you two.
Thanks sir
Bull shit if you wants to have knowledge about car Tyres listen to English programme.
Good video indeed!
My personal experience with tyres goes as follows
My Hyundai i20 Asta 2009 model came OE with Apollo Acelere, maybe due to my heavy usage on concrete roads (especially on harsh concrete surface of Mumbai Pune expressway) and the 240Nm torque from CRDi mill the initial tyres gave away within 27k kms, I replaced it with GoodYear Assurance which although ran for 45k kms it did became very gritty after 30k kms and I hated using it especially on the expressways, I replaced it with Bridgestone B290 which till date is one of the best tyres I ever used, very low road noise, decent grip and good life too, I eeked out 50k+ kms from the set, so much so that I ended up consuming two more sets of the same tyres! Recently I changed the tyres yet again but since Bridgestone have discontinued the B290s I decided to go for Continental Ultra Contact UC6, have used it more than 15k+ kms as of now and response has been excellent, tyre noise and road holding are even better than B290s, a must try for sure.
My dad's WagonR came OE with Apollo Amazer3G, which ran for 40k+ kms, I replaced it with Michelin Energy XM2, used it more than 45k+ kms and even though they were good to go for 10k kms more but I felt unstable (keeping in mind the already sloppy handling of the WagonR at the first place), replaced it with Bridgestone Turanza T005a(the same tyres which comes as OE in Honda Elevate, Toyota Camry, Lexus ES300H) and after 30k kms these are still good to go for 20k+ kms.
My Tucson came OE with Nexen and one of them gave away early in its life due to manufacturing defect in 15k kms which Hyundai did honour and replaced it with Bridgestone Turanza T001 and as of now my car is still on its first set and covered 50k+ kms and are still good to go for another 10k+ kms.
Adding some more points, as Munish Ji said the tread walls have an impact on sound levels and this is actually true, this phenomenon is known as HelmHoltz principle.
Next yes the tyres' intrinsic strength is determined by the steel radials, this was explained by my dad( a metallurgist from IIT Kanpur) and said radials used in car tyres are one of the highest tensile strength steel used in industry. Those radial steel are quite strong have strength equivalent to earthquake resistant TMT bars, those are developed from extensive R&D which my dad was a part of way back when he was in service and was successful in designing one which he had subsequently patented(he has 15patents by the way) and many international journals quoted about his project widely.
Although I understand what Mr Munish said that deeper grooves in tyres mean lesser rubber which is bad but I want to ask ain't those grooves and sipes are required to prevent aquaplaning? I don't think so F1 cars and MotoGP bikes don't have to face undulating surface with uneven aquaplaning whereas regular cars have to bear the brunt of poor roads, even airplanes have sipes and grooves to prevent aquaplaning. Also Mr Munish said only Michelin& Bridgestone provide tyres to commercial jets I disagree, I've been in AirbusA330 and Boeing777 jumbojet, and I observed them fitted with GoodYears and Dunlops too.
Regarding air pressures, check the door jam for correct recommended pressures, and I guess its a class11 science lesson that as temperatures increase pressure increases too(Boyle's law). What matters is the pressure not air quantity, remember that.
Regarding Tyre wear, you can check with Tread Wear Indicator and you can use a simple 1rupee coin to measure it when it is parallel to surface I guess it's time to change, other factors include whether it's driven on concrete roads or on higher temperatures during summers or winters and age of tyres which causes them to become brittle, my uncle a Polymer scientist at USA(he has a big hand in developing the special paint required for stealth military machines of US Army) explained me about brittling of polymers.
Lastly regarding silica, apart from that what matters is the carbon chains, which should be long chain links and of course bonded with silica, Bridgestone uses NanoPro Tech a patented technology for linking carbon and silica and also using HelmHoltz principle to dial down noise levels in their premium Alenza,Potenza and Turanza series.
Additionally Run Flat tyres have an extra steel reinforcement at the sidewalls which allows them to run even after they face an air loss, only downside is if driven in that state for too long, they get damaged beyond repair, also they're stiffer and harsher than tubeless, also you must've been knowing about US President's car, the Cadillac beast, that car comes fitted with special tyre(GoodYear) which can even run after being hit with bullets! Same technology is used by Michelin which is fitted in German Chancellor's Audi A8 Security.
One more thing I would like to share is when Bugatti developed their Veyron there was no car tyre in existence that could hold up to the performance that Veyron had to offer with its ballistic W12 8.0L which would go well beyond 400kmph. VAG asked Michelin to develop tyres for the Veyron, at first Michelin outrightly rejected the request citing high R&D costs and low returns(meaning huge financial loss) as Veyron would be a niche product and only limited cars would be ever made and even less to be sold and therefore Michelin couldn't be able to recoup the costs, at that time the Veyron being almost completed and VAG pumping in billions of Euros into the project couldn't take a U Turn and nor get any tyres for their expenisive project to actually test out the car they made, was in a fix. Thus at that point then MD&CEO of VAG Sir Ferdinand Piech(grandson of Mr Ferdinand Porsche, founder of Porsche), the man behind cars like Phaeton and Touareg W12 said if Michelin won't make tyres for their Bugatti Veyron they would cancel all the tenders with Michelin being OE supplier for each of their cars (including VW,Skoda,Audi,Ducati etc), this meant a huge setback for Michelin and unwillingly they had to develop special tyres which costs a cool 42,000$ per set(almost 38Lakh rupees, yes just the tyres!!), IIRC they're almost of 370sections!
Regarding asymmetric patterns, yes they do help in enhancing road holding and enhancing grip but the thing is it must be ensured these are fitted in the correct direction and one needs to keep an eye, also since they're asymmetric and due to their uneven tread pattern they pose a slight risk in wet as these may form aqauplaning channels whereas a symmetric pattern has grooves uniformly which ensures water film is drained to the sides and no aquaplaning occurs, thus I recommend and lean more towards symmetric tyre pattern for everyday cars.
Sorry for the long post but I too felt I must share some insights from whatever little knowledge I have in this field. Thank you!
195 55 r16, is continental good enough ?
Excellent Aryaan, I would put an article on this
You know that much and your father is a Metallurgist from IIT and still buys WagonR?
Hurd mentality so much deep rooted in we Indians no matter what we know.
@@ravindradaundkar9905 With all due respect, I request you to please not comment anything against my dad or his choices. He had to face fair bit of hardships in his life and has sacrificed everything for his family and whatever I and my brother are only coz of the good education which we recieved as it was of utmost priority for him, also unlike other IITians who left the country and serve for foreigners my dad chose his country and dedicated his life for the betterment of the nation even if it meant getting less than decent remuneration and no monetization from all of his patents, do you know he helped developing a secret formula which made steel hard without using Niobium( a metal which ain't available in India and costs our nation billions of dollars to import), thus saving thousands of crores of our nation, this was just an example, he did many such intellectual projects throughout 40years of his service and 5years more as a consultant but never demanded any consultancy fee in exchange(in comparison far less so called freelancers demand at least 20-25 odd lakhs/visit plus amenities like 5star fooding and lodging along with business class flight tickets for them and their spouse, in their single visit they just tell you half solution, for entire solution they demand multiple visits and equivalent consultancy fee too)nor did he never recieved a single penny extra than this salary for his great work during his service, and no he doesn't regret a single bit.
Today whatever I and my elder brother( a businessman along with my maternal uncle, owns cars like Merc GLS450d), are only coz of the sacrifices made by dad only to provide the best of education to us to the best of his capabilities, even if it meant buying a WagonR in 2010(which was actually near the end of his service life), in initial 20years he used a Chetak scooter and then upon us forcing got a MS800 in 1999 and his retirement car was the 2010 WagonR, and he loves it like his 3rd son and it's my duty to keep his car in top shape.
So I guess it's better not to comment anything on anybody's choice as we don't know what's the story behind it. Thanks and cheers!
@@ravindradaundkar9905 With all due respect I request you not to comment anything on my dad or his choices. Life isn't same for everybody and whatever I and my brother are today is only coz of the good education provided by my dad even if it meant sacrificing his own comfort and pleasures, yes he is an IITian but unlike other IITians who ran to foreign nations and worked for foreigners my dad decided to serve his entire life for the country even if it meant recieveing less than decent salary as compared to what foreigners were offering to him(he has had recieved innumerous very high paying job offers way back when he was in service), do you know he even developed secret formula which didn't require use of expensive metals like Niobium in steels to harden them as Nb ain't available in India and our nation had to import it by spending billions of dollars, saving thousands of crores of the nation, but never recieved a single penny extra than his salary for his work for the 40years of his service nor did he get any royalty from his patents as it's dedicated to Govt of India, also even after retirement he is regularly called for consultancy but he never charges a single penny for his consultancy (in comparison far less knowledgeable freelancers demand anywhere between 20-25lakh/visit along with 5star fooding and lodging with business class flight tickets for them and their spouse and these consultants don't even tell the actual solution in a single visit and demand multiple visits and consultancy fee for the same task and often in the end their advice fail and there is no return policy, whereas my dad tells the entire thing in pin point manner and his advices have near zero failure rate), and no he doesn't regret a single bit on not gaining any monetary benefits, from his immense invaluable knowledge, patriotism at the truest sense!
As a person he doesn't like leading a luxurious life and is happy in living a basic lifestyle which requires nothing more than essential stuff, do you know as recent as last year he was still using his 2006 HP i3 Laptop which I had to forcefully replace with a 2023MacBook Air! For the first 20years of his service life he used a Chetak scooter and upon us forcing to get him a car citing safety got a MS800 way back in 1999 and finally near his retirement got a 2010 WagonR which he loves it like his 3rd son and it's my duty to keep his car in top shape.
Whatever I and my elder brother(a businessman along with my maternal uncle and owning cars like Merc GLS450d) are coz of the best of education we recieved only coz dad sacrificed his own pleasures for our future. So I think it's better not to comment on anybody and their choices randomly and making a judgement as more often than not we never know the entire story! Thanks and cheers!

Very well information about tyres, Never saw this type of video on TH-cam.👍🙏
You have made us understand in detail about Tyres... Wonderful.
Loved the fact explanation why tyres have assymetrical pattern. Another added point is we have greater traction while turning on high speeds.
I am confused about which one is good Asymmetrical or symmetrical?
@@Garry6290asymmetric
That's why rally cars have assymetry tyres
Great video as always!!
Thanks for sharing. Learned so much about tyres today
It is very useful video I think no one is discussing about this..! Great Suff ❤ Keep it Up 🎉 Very Very Good Video😁
Sir. You have delivered very good knowledge, those I have been not following till date.Now onwards I'll follow.
Really educative video, leaned a lot of new things. I would like to request to make a video on after how many kms should we recheck our wheel alignment and wheel balancing. And how to maintain/take care of spare tyre.
Hats off to this person's knowledge, thank you so much for this video
Very much good informative video.
This is very much easy understanding as well.
A must watch for all automobile enthusiasts.
Very nice and informative video. Thanks.
बहुत ज्यादा knowledge मिली. आज दोबारा देखी ये video
Thanks for sharing quite valuable information.
fantastic information to say the least. it was eye opening to watch and understand. i have changed my mind about the tyres i was going to replace with.
This is best video on tyres. Thank you so much. You both can make documentary series on Discovery/NG
Fantastic content paaji ⚡⚡💯💯
We need more informative videos like this
Thank you for the video❤
Much needed !!
One thing that irritates me the most is people with positive or negative camber driving their cars at triple digit speeds on expressways. those cars are meant to be show cars only. Either keep them on the track or keep them in your garage.
Some older sports car do come with negative camber though..
Wealth of info!!! Thank you for sharing
really nice and knowledgeable discussion. appreciate your efforts.
Thanks Manish ji for clarifying the cold tyre pressure logic. Last time, I checked after a drive and saw 32, but in the night it was 26 psi
Best DUO in automobile Industry 🚗.❤

Lots of thanks dear for knowledge
After switching multiple brands, settled with Michelin XM2+ series OEM size.
Just one correction in T-Roc OEM size is 215/55 R17 instead of 50 side profile as you mentioned. In India below 1 crore price no car providing side profile of 50.
They have width 245 or 255 to compensate 50 side profile.
Side profile is in percentage. I prefer to have around 112-113 mm side profile for sedan hatchback & 118-119 mm for suv.
185/60 =111
195/55= 107.25
205/55= 112.75
215/55= 118.25
215/60= 129 (never given in german or honda cars)
Germans and Japanese companies maintaining this side profile in their all cars.
wow superb video, Thanks sir
I am confident this video will be a good refresh for my Mechanical Engineering brothers :)
Very informative
Superb video with great insights and learning
