Find Tyres for Citroën C5 Aircross

Frequently asked questions

Quick answers about UK tyre fitment, MOT rules and seasonal options.

• What's the legal tread depth for a Citroën C5 Aircross in the UK?

  The UK legal minimum tread depth is 1.6mm across the central three-quarters of the tyre. Many tyre safety bodies recommend replacing at 3mm for better wet weather safety on the Citroën C5 Aircross.

• Where do I find the load index for Citroën C5 Aircross tyres?

  Load index appears at the end of the tyre size, just before the speed rating — e.g. 91V means load index 91, speed V. Match or exceed the original load index shown on the door placard of your Citroën C5 Aircross.

• What pressure should the Citroën C5 Aircross run?

  The correct pressure for your Citroën C5 Aircross is on the placard inside the driver's door frame and in the handbook — not on the tyre itself. Pressure varies by load and trim. Check cold once a month.

• Should I fit all-terrain tyres to a Citroën C5 Aircross?

  Standard road tyres suit the vast majority of UK Citroën C5 Aircross drivers. Only consider all-terrain (A/T) tyres if you regularly drive unpaved roads or tracks — A/T tyres are noisier and have lower wet grip on tarmac.

• What tyre choices suit a Citroën C5 Aircross towing a caravan?

  For towing on the Citroën C5 Aircross, prioritise load index, sidewall stiffness and a strong wet grip rating. Some tyre makers offer "XL" (extra-load) versions which are better suited to high-load and tow scenarios.
