Frequently asked questions
Quick answers about UK tyre fitment, MOT rules and seasonal options.
Do I need SUV-rated tyres on the 2011-2016 Subaru Impreza?
SUV-rated tyres carry a higher load index for the extra weight and ride height. Match or exceed the original load index. If you do mild off-road, all-terrain (A/T) tyres trade some on-road grip for better unpaved performance.
Where should I check the original tyre size for my Subaru Impreza?
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.
