Hyundai tyre tips
- High-mileage Accent and Elantra taxis and rentals can cover 60,000 km a year, so a long-wear touring tyre usually costs less per kilometre than the cheapest option.
- Tucson and Santa Fe models from 2021 onwards have direct TPMS; a new sensor may need to be programmed if the warning light stays on after fitting.
- Korean OE tyres from Hankook and Kumho are widely stocked in the UAE, which makes like-for-like replacement quick.
Common factory tyres on Hyundai: Hankook, Kumho, Nexen, Michelin, Continental.

When to replace the tyres
Small hatchbacks often get 45,000–60,000 km from a set because they are light, but many are driven short distances and reach five years first. Hot hatches on performance tyres usually need fronts every 25,000–35,000 km.
Small hatchbacks typically need a load index of 79–88 with a T or H speed rating. Larger and sporty hatchbacks such as the Golf and Mini Cooper S use 91–94 with V or W ratings, often XL. Mini models fitted with run-flats are marked RSC, RFT or SSR on the sidewall.
