4. Types of Goodyear tyre warranty

• Warranty against Non-manufacturing defects - Limited by kilometres travelled or time period: Most tyre warranties cover a specific number of kilometres for which the tyre is used OR a time period starting from the date of purchase or manufacturing date of the tyre.
• Goodyear tyres warranty against manufacturing defects: Tyres that are defective due to raw materials used or processes used in manufacturing that cause tyres to get deformed, bulge or crack – without the cause being any external impact or any other external factor. Such cases are covered by the Goodyear tyre warranty.

5. Three years or 50% tread depth Conditional Pro-rata Goodyear tyre warranty: If a tyre develops issues impacting its performance before reaching 50% of its tread depth or 2 years from date of sale/manufacture, you may get a tyre replacement at a pro-rata amount payable by you as a price difference based on the tread depth remaining on the tyre subjected to claim under the Goodyear tyre warranty.

• You must note that warranties usually don't cover damage caused due to punctures, cuts or impacts, incorrect maintenance like using under or over inflated tyres or misaligned tyres. Even overloading, racing, or off-road usage of tyres can impact the claim under Goodyear tyre warranty.
• Please see the table below for the Goodyear tyre warranty time limits for the different product patterns that they manufacture:

6. Common Reasons for Warranty Rejection of Goodyear tyres Avoid the following situations, as they may void your warranty:

• Tyres damaged due to accidental impact, such as hitting a pothole, curb, or road debris
• Burst tyres caused by high-speed impact or overloading
• Use of tyres for motorsport or off-roading, unless specified
• Visible signs of improper maintenance: irregular wear patterns, under- or over-inflation, or lack of rotation
• Tampering with the tyre or using sealants that may mask internal damage

Tyre Maintenance: How to Extend Tyre Life

1. Maintain Proper Tyre Pressure

Incorrect tyre pressure causes uneven wear and increases fuel usage. Check your tyre pressure every 2 weeks. Always refer to the vehicle manual or door sticker for the correct PSI. You can also buy tyre pressure monitoring systems to get real time information of air pressure in your car tyres – click here to view tyre pressure monitoring system products (TPMS) – you will be surprised; these are not very expensive. You can call our tyre experts on 9212751275 in case you need any clarifications about the TPMS products.

2. Regular Wheel Alignment and Balancing Misaligned wheels can cause your tyres to wear unevenly. Similarly, unbalanced tyres lead to vibrations and premature tyre wear. Have alignment and balancing done every 5,000 to 8,000 km or if you notice any pulling or vibration.
3. Tyre Rotation Rotate your tyres every 5,000–8,000 km to ensure even wear. Follow the rotation pattern suggested by your vehicle manufacturer.
4. Load Index and Speed Rating Awareness

• Load Index: Indicates the maximum load a tyre can carry. Overloading beyond this limit puts stress on the tyre and increases the risk of blowouts.
• Speed Rating: Tells you the maximum speed a tyre can safely handle. Exceeding it regularly can lead to overheating and tyre failure.

5. Inspect for Wear and Tear Regularly check the tyre tread depth (minimum 1.6 mm) and look for cracks, bulges, or embedded objects. Uneven wear might indicate issues with suspension or alignment.
6. Avoid Sudden Braking and Acceleration Aggressive driving habits cause rapid tyre degradation. Smooth acceleration and braking not only extend tyre life but also improve fuel efficiency.
7. Park Smart Avoid parking on uneven, rocky, or oily surfaces for long durations. Heat and surface condition can affect tyre integrity over time.
