Whether you’re behind the wheel of the classic Cooper or one of the more recent Countryman or Clubman models, you’re always making a statement driving a Mini. The Mini has been a British icon for over 60 years and is globally known for it’s small, fun and high-quality cars. While the Mini has come along away since the Classic model, with the ever-popular Mini Cooper and other innovative models their commitment to quality hasn’t budged.
As the owner of an iconic Mini, you need to ensure that it is kept in a great working condition so that it can continue work at its high performing best. That starts with your car’s point of contact with the road - the tyres. We recommend checking you Mini’s tyres regularly to check that they have a good amount tread depth and that they don’t have any visible signs of wear and tear. If you need any maintenance work carried out on your tyres, you can bring your Mini into your local Halfords Autocentre for expert advice and tyre services.
At some point, though, the time will come when you need to invest in a new set of tyres to replace the original ones. While high-quality tyres aren’t inexpensive, at Halfords, we aim to provide tyres from the top brands at the best possible prices so you can have the best possible driving experience without breaking the bank.
If you’re the proud owner of a Mini Cooper S, your car will likely be factory-fitted with the Dunlop SP Sport’s 01’s, but you may also want to consider the Bridgestone Potenza or the Goodyear Excellence as an alternative choices featuring great grip and handling.
Looking at Mini’s Countryman, the car is fitted with Pirelli run-flats, which means you can keep driving after getting a puncture. The choices for alternative replacements are slightly more limited, but the Continental ContiPremiumContact and Goodyear Excellence are both solid options.
If you need some help in choosing your new tyres, feel free to seek the advice of our expert staff at your local Autocentre. Once you have chosen the ideal set of tyres for your Mini, don’t forget to book in your free fitting in branch or through our mobile fitting service.
