Frequently asked questions
Quick answers about UK tyre fitment, MOT rules and seasonal options.
What pressure should the Peugeot 208 run?
The correct pressure for your Peugeot 208 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.
What's the legal tread depth for a Peugeot 208 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 Peugeot 208.
Is wheel alignment important after fitting new 208 tyres?
Yes — a wheel alignment check after fitting new tyres on the Peugeot 208 preserves tread life and handling. Most UK fitters offer a quick alignment check; major adjustments (camber/caster) require a four-wheel laser machine.
Where can I find the tyre size for a Peugeot 208?
On a Peugeot 208, the original tyre size is shown in three places: the existing tyre sidewall, the placard on the driver's door frame, and the vehicle handbook. The door placard is the manufacturer-specified original equipment.
Are budget tyres OK for the Peugeot 208?
Smaller cars like the Peugeot 208 often work well on mid-range tyres. The cheapest unbranded options can compromise wet braking — use the EU tyre label to compare wet grip and noise before fitting.
