Frequently asked questions
Quick answers about UK tyre fitment, MOT rules and seasonal options.
What speed rating is required for the 2018-2021 Lotus Exige?
Performance variants of the Lotus Exige typically require a Y-rated (300 km/h) or W-rated (270 km/h) tyre. Match or exceed the original speed rating shown on your sidewall — fitting a lower-rated tyre can affect handling and may be illegal on certain models.
What should Lotus Exige drivers know about UK potholes?
UK road conditions are tough on tyres. Check sidewall bulges, cuts and tread depth regularly — especially on the inside edge, which often wears unevenly. A 20p coin gives a quick legal-tread check.
Where should I check the original tyre size for my Lotus Exige?
Look in three places: (1) the sidewall of the existing tyre, (2) the placard inside the driver's door frame, and (3) the vehicle handbook. The driver's door placard is the official OEM specification, and the sidewall confirms what's fitted now.
