Find Tyres for Renault Modus

Frequently asked questions

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

• What's the difference between summer and winter tyres for a Renault Modus?

  Winter tyres use a different rubber compound that stays flexible below 7°C, plus deeper sipes for snow and slush grip. For UK Renault Modus drivers in colder regions, dedicated winters or 3PMSF all-seasons can be worthwhile.

• Where can I find the tyre size for a Renault Modus?

  On a Renault Modus, 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 Renault Modus?

  Smaller cars like the Renault Modus 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.

• Where do I find the load index for Renault Modus 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 Renault Modus.

• Why does the Renault Modus have different tyre sizes by year?

  The Renault Modus has had 2 UK-market generations. Each generation uses a different platform and wheel options, so tyre sizes are not interchangeable across the model's history. Pick the year-correct generation page for accurate fitment data.
