How do I check a tyre is not old stock?

Read the four-digit DOT code on the sidewall: the first two digits are the week and the last two the year of manufacture. Anything more than two years old has already aged on a shelf, and Islamabad's summer heat accelerates rubber hardening. Refuse tyres older than that at full price.

When do tyres need replacing?

At 1.6 millimetres of tread depth by law, but practically at 2.5 to 3 millimetres for wet grip on the Expressway and the Motorway. Also replace on age alone at five to six years even with tread left, since sidewall cracking from heat is common on cars parked outdoors in Islamabad all summer.

Do I need an alignment after new tyres?

Yes. Fitting new tyres to a car that is out of alignment produces uneven wear within a few thousand kilometres, which wastes most of what you just paid. Book alignment for the same visit, at Rs 1,500 to Rs 3,500, and have the balancing done on the machine in front of you.

Tyre Shopsin Islamabad & Rawalpindi

This desk started in Islamabad, so this is where our data runs deepest. Everything below is written for Islamabad and Rawalpindi specifically — other cities are covered, in less detail.

A common 185/65 R15 tyre costs Rs 14,000 to Rs 26,000 in 2026 depending on brand, and larger SUV sizes run Rs 30,000 to Rs 70,000 each. Fitting and balancing is Rs 800 to Rs 1,500 per wheel, puncture repair Rs 500 to Rs 1,200, and nitrogen filling Rs 200 to Rs 500 per tyre. Buying a full set usually gets fitting and balancing included.

The main tyre market is on Peshawar Road and around Faizabad and Saddar in Rawalpindi, with retail outlets in I-8, G-9, Blue Area and Bahria Town. Fitting a set of four takes forty-five minutes to an hour with a slot. Ask for the tyres to be balanced on the machine in front of you rather than assumed done.

Check the DOT date code on the sidewall before paying. A tyre manufactured more than two years ago has already aged on the shelf, and Islamabad's summer heat accelerates that. Confirm whether the price includes disposal of the old tyres, and get an alignment check afterwards, because new tyres wear unevenly within weeks on a car that is out of alignment.
