Toyota tyre tips
- Land Cruiser 300 and Prado placards call for around 33 psi; drop to 15–18 psi only for dunes and re-inflate before returning to the highway.
- Hilux pick-ups that carry building materials or a full tray should use the higher rear pressure on the door placard, not the unladen figure.
- Camry and Corolla owners usually get the best value from a mid-range touring tyre; ultra-high-performance tyres add noise and cost without a real benefit on these cars.
- Toyota SUVs bought from GCC dealers often have TPMS sensors from 2018 onwards, so ask for the sensor to be checked when a tyre is changed.
Common factory tyres on Toyota: Bridgestone, Dunlop, Yokohama, Toyo, Michelin.

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.
