Troubleshooting

Tyre pressure warning light is on

Check tyre pressure using a reliable gauge and inflate to the recommended PSI for your vehicle. If the light persists, there may be a slow leak or a sensor issue.

Uneven tyre wear

This can be caused by under-inflation, over-inflation, improper wheel alignment, or unbalanced wheels. Schedule a check-up for alignment and balancing.

Reduced fuel efficiency

Ensure tyres are inflated to the correct pressure. Low rolling resistance is a feature, but maintaining proper inflation is key for optimal efficiency.

Increased road noise

While designed for balanced performance, significant noise could indicate uneven wear or an issue with wheel balancing. Check for wear patterns and consider re-balancing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Ensure that the tyre size (e.g., 225/65 R16 112/110R) matches your vehicle's manufacturer specifications.

This tyre is marked with M+S (Mud and Snow) and 3PMSF (Three Peak Mountain Snowflake), indicating its suitability for winter conditions.

Setup: Installation should be performed by a qualified professional at a tyre fitting center. Proper mounting and balancing are crucial for optimal performance and safety.

Care: To maximize the lifespan and performance of your VanContact 4Season tyres:

Regular Inspections: Check tyre pressure weekly and before long journeys. Ensure it matches the vehicle manufacturer's recommendation, which can usually be found in the owner's manual or on the driver's side doorjamb.
Visual Checks: Periodically inspect tyres for signs of wear, damage, cuts, or embedded objects.
Rotation: Rotate your tyres at recommended intervals (typically every 6,000-8,000 miles) to ensure even tread wear.
Wheel Alignment: Have your wheel alignment checked regularly, especially if you notice uneven tyre wear or the vehicle pulls to one side.
