What’s worth knowing?

Can you fit different types of tyres on a car?
As regards the arrangement of tyres on a car, the Highway Code stipulates that tyres must be:

  • of the same brand
  • the same size
  • the same category of use (e.g. road, snow, off-road)
  • of the same design (diagonal or radial)
  • with the same velocity index (T, H, V, W?)
  • with the same load-bearing capacity
