To mark National Tyre Safety Day
Monday October 2nd kicks off Road Safety Week in Ireland, and Tyre Safety Day is a huge focus of the week.
We have a €250 ITIA Voucher up for grabs for new tyres to help you be as tyre safe as possible.
All you have to do is fill in this form for your chance to win.
Your four tyres are the only physical point of contact between you and the road and defective tyres are a contributory factor in approximately 14 deaths every year.
Checkpoints this week will focus on tyre condition – if found driving with defective tyres you could be liable for a fine and up to 4 penalty points.
Keep you and your loved ones safe by regularly looking after your tyres.
Make sure to get an ITIA expert technician to check the pressure, tread depth and overall condition of your tyres today.

Tyre Safety
Safety – under or over inflated tyres effect grip, handling and braking performance
Tyre wear – too soft or hard tyres result in irregular wear of the tread and reduced mileage.
Fuel economy – under inflated tyres cause drag and this increases fuel consumption.
