MINI tyre tips
- MINI run-flats carry a star or MINI marking; they ride firmer but let you reach a workshop after a puncture.
- Switching to non-run-flat tyres improves comfort on a MINI but means carrying a repair kit.
- The Cooper S on 18-inch wheels wears its front tyres quickly; rotate them every 8,000–10,000 km where sizes allow.
Common factory tyres on MINI: Pirelli, Bridgestone, Continental, Hankook.

When to replace the tyres
Most SUV tyres last 35,000–55,000 km in the UAE. Heavy SUVs wear tyres faster, especially if pressures are allowed to drop. Replace at about five years regardless of tread, and check the spare as well.
Compact SUVs typically need a load index of 100–104 with H or V rating. Large SUVs such as the Land Cruiser, Patrol and LX need 110–116, often with S, T or H rating on H/T and A/T tyres. Many European SUVs specify XL tyres. Never go below the placard load index on a heavy SUV.
