Frequently asked questions
Quick answers about UK tyre fitment, MOT rules and seasonal options.
Are Subaru OEM-marked tyres different from standard ones?
Subaru 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.
Are all-season tyres suitable for a Subaru?
For UK Subaru drivers doing mixed mileage, all-season tyres carrying the 3PMSF snowflake symbol can be a sensible single-set choice. Confirm size and load rating match your specific model and trim.
Are tyre sizes the same across all Subaru models?
No. Subaru sells (or has sold) 10 models in the UK, each with multiple trims and wheel options. Tyre sizes vary by model, generation, trim and wheel size.
Do I have to use Subaru-approved tyres?
Approved tyres are recommended for performance and warranty consistency, but UK law and MOT only require tyres that match the original size, load index and speed rating. Many drivers use major-brand non-approved tyres successfully.
Can I drive on a Subaru space-saver tyre?
Many Subaru 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.
