Tyre condition

Always perform a visual assessment for tyres before driving, and inspect more closely every 3-4 weeks. Quick checks can improve driving safety and comfort, and extend the life of tyres.

Consult a tyre expert immediately if the tyre becomes deflated when in use or if you notice external damage to the tread or the sides of the tyre, such as punctures, cuts, abrasion, or uneven wear.

New tyres have a groove depth of over 8 millimeters, though often more than 9 millimeters.

We recommend changing all of the tyres at the same time. In some cases two tyres can be changed: either both front tyres or both rear tyres. In these cases, the new tyres should be the same brand and model as the old tyres to ensure safety and maneuverability.

In connection with each scan, we store the scanning result, vehicle registration number, scanning time, and data identifying the scanner. The collected data is deleted automatically from the system after seven (7) days if the driver has not signed up for the service by that time. The system does not…

Sometimes, the scanning result cannot be delivered due to technological or other reasons. Some reasons for failing to deliver a report: the vehicle registration number could not be read (due to dirt or snow), all four tires could not be measured (a tire did not pass over the scanner) or, if several …

For safety reasons, the result in the SnapSkan report is based on the most worn tire. The result for individual tires is the mean value for the measured main groove treads rounded to the nearest millimeter. Click the tires in the report to see detailed measurement results for that tire. Example: Mea…

An easy way to measure the groove depth is to use a two-euro coin: place it in the main groove in the central part of the tread. If the silver edge of the coin is still visible from within the tread, the depth is less than 4 mm.

In slippery conditions, the car’s breaking distance is longer and handling becomes more difficult. Tyres are unable to move water, snow and slush out of the way, losing the feeling of road contact.
