Frequently asked questions
Quick answers about UK tyre fitment, MOT rules and seasonal options.
Can I drive on a Proton space-saver tyre?
Many Proton cars carry a space-saver spare designed for short, low-speed use only — typically up to 50 mph for a maximum of 50 miles. Replace it with a full tyre as soon as you can.
Can I get Proton tyres fitted at home?
Yes — several UK suppliers offer mobile tyre fitting at home or work. Confirm the fitter can service your Proton model — some performance variants need specific equipment for tyre changes (e.g. on alloy wheels with low-profile tyres).
Are Proton OEM-marked tyres different from standard ones?
Proton works with tyre makers to develop OEM-marked versions tuned for specific models — typically with adjusted compound and structure. OEM markings (e.g. star, MO, AO) match the car's suspension calibration but aren't always the cheapest replacement option.
How long do Proton tyres typically last in the UK?
Tread life on a Proton typically ranges from 20,000 to 40,000 miles depending on tyre brand, model weight, driving style and UK road conditions. Heavier and higher-power variants wear faster.
What's the legal tread depth for a Proton in the UK?
1.6mm across the central three-quarters of the tyre, around the full circumference. Many tyre safety bodies recommend replacing earlier — at around 3mm — to keep wet braking distances within safer limits.
