FAQs
What are performance tyres?

Performance tyres are summer tyres designed primarily for sports driving as opposed to fuel efficiency. Compared to regular or eco tyres, they typically feature softer compounds and more aggressive tread patterns designed to maximise the tyre’s contact patch on the road.

What is the impact of performance tyres?

Compared to all-season or eco tyres, summer performance tyres offer increased grip and often deliver improved steering feel, giving you more confidence and improving your car’s cornering and braking capabilities.

Are performance tyres good for daily driving?

Although they’re slightly less fuel efficient than regular tyres (and they can be a little louder), performance tyres are perfectly well-suited to daily driving. Just bear in mind that, due to their softer compound, they may wear out more quickly than regular tyres.

What’s the typical lifespan of a performance tyre?

The lifespan of a tyre will depend on your driving style, wheel alignment settings, the brand of tyre you choose and many other factors.

What’s the best thing to modify first on my car?

This depends on your individual tastes and priorities. If you want to lower your car, we’d recommend getting a set of coilovers or an air ride kit to kick things off. Want more noise and a little extra performance? An exhaust will do the trick. If you’re not sure what to start with, reach out to our team for advice.

Do you have any top tips for installing performance parts?
  • Don't book the car in for a job until your parts arrive.
  • Use a reputable garage. We cannot be held responsible for any costs incurred by poor workmanship.
  • Where possible, check new parts against old.
  • Please check when modifying your car that the manufacturer’s warranty will not be infringed.
Does modifying a car affect its value?
  • Potentially. Modifying a car can add to its value, provided you choose the right parts and have them installed by a reputable garage.

Is it illegal to not declare car modifications?

If you don’t declare modifications to your insurance company, you will invalidate your insurance - meaning you’re effectively driving uninsured. Always make sure that all modifications are declared to your insurance company.

What car modifications are legal?

Unless otherwise stated, all of the parts listed on our website are legal and suitable for road use.
