Your tyre
Ultra-high performance summer
Sharp, sticky, and still sensible to live with.
Hot-tier power starts to overwhelm touring rubber, especially in the wet. UHP tyres add the braking and steering you need and still last.

Speed and load figures are our estimates from weight and power, to sanity-check a quote. Your tyre placard, on the driver’s door jamb, is the authority: fit at least the load index and speed rating it shows.

How buying works
Know your size
It’s printed on your current tyre, like 225/45 R17 94W, and on the placard in the driver’s door jamb. Read a sidewall
Order online
Tap a tyre’s Tyroola link, enter your size or rego, and pick a fitter near you at checkout, or a mobile fitter who comes to you. Compare fitted prices. Afterpay and Zip are offered.
Get them fitted
The tyres arrive before your booking, so you just turn up. Fitting and balancing four takes about an hour. Add a wheel alignment while the car is there: it stops the new tread wearing unevenly.
For your car
All-wheel drive: replace all four
Keep all four tyres the same make, model and near-identical tread depth. Many AWD systems tolerate only 2–3 mm of difference before the centre coupling or diff is strained, so a single damaged tyre can mean replacing the set, or shaving a new one to match.
Electric: weight, torque and noise
EVs are heavy and deliver torque instantly, so tyres often wear noticeably faster than on a similar petrol car. Look for EV-specific versions (Elect, EV, ContiSilent, Acoustic), which add foam to cut cabin noise, and for XL or HL (high load) service descriptions. Low rolling resistance adds real range.
SUV
Choose the SUV or 4x4 version of a tyre where one exists: it has a stronger carcass for the extra weight and higher centre of gravity. Match or exceed the placard load index.
Wet grip matters most
In a wet climate, rank tyres by wet braking first. On the EU tyre label the gap between wet grip classes A and E is up to 18 m when stopping from 80 km/h, several car lengths.
Buying only two?
On AWD, avoid it. On other cars, put the new pair on the rear axle: grippy rears keep the car stable when braking or cornering in the wet.
