The Peugeot 2008 is a fantastic SUV in the city and out on the highway. The 2008 comes with a set of tyres that have been carefully matched to the specification of the car. In every case, Peugeot recommends that replacements are as close as possible to the original equipment (OE). This is a common practice for every car manufacturer, and it's intended to keep the car as close as possible to the manufacturer's tolerances. However, Peugeot doesn't manufacture tyres, so what happens when your factory fitted set eventually need to be replaced?


OE is Always Best
The best option would be to buy a new set of tyres that are exactly the same as the worn ones that you need to replace. Sadly, it's unlikely that you will be able to walk into a tyre shop and purchase the exact same tyres off the rack. There are so many tyre manufacturers and specification available that you can quickly become lost. If you cannot source the exact same tyres you will need to get a set that closely matches them. This will ensure that you get the best possible tyre performance to match certain criteria, such as durability, ride comfort, traction and of course the cost.




Don't Forget Fuel Economy
Choosing a cheaper set of tyres could have a huge impact on the amount of rolling resistance that your car has. If your Peugeot car has OE tyres that are designed for low rolling resistance, then these tyres would have a detrimental effect on your fuel economy. So, buying a set of cheap tyres could save you money in the short term, but in the medium to long term, you may end up paying more for your fuel. Essentially, cheaper tyres are a false economy in terms of fuel efficiency, and tour thác bản giốc the costs can really add up over time.


The Lifespan of Tyres
Another aspect that could affect your finances is the durability of your tyres. Replacing OE tyres with similar rubber will most likely give you a set that will last a similar distance. Cheaper tyres will wear more quickly. There is a treadwear rating that is a three digit number located on the tyre sidewall. The higher the number, the longer the tyre should last, but this can only be treated as a rough guide. Broadly speaking a cheaper tire will need to be replaced more often and this may cost more in the medium to long term.
