Small tyres need regular checks
For the Kia Picanto, small tyres lose air faster than large ones, and a soft tyre wears its shoulders quickly. On the Kia Picanto, check pressures cold once a month, using the figure on the placard.
Measure the tread depth across the full width. For the Kia Picanto, the legal minimum is 1.5mm in the main grooves, but wet braking weakens well before that, so many drivers replace around 3mm.
Moving the tyres front to rear every 10,000km or so keeps wear balanced, and new tyres fitted in pairs keep grip even.
For the Kia Picanto, budget tyres suit most daily driving, but compare wet grip before you buy.
For the Kia Picanto, a fitter can also check the valves while the old tyres are off.
The sizes above apply to the Kia Picanto only. If you are also buying for another Kia, check Kia EV3 tyres, Kia EV9 tyres or Kia K4 tyres for the list that applies.
