We take our car tyres for granted, assuming they\u2019re fine and giving little thought to them. You\u2019re not the only one. Until the day we need to replace them, tyres are very easy to overlook.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And when the day comes, the vast majority of people have little or no idea of which tyres to buy or why. There\u2019s a vast array of tyres to choose from, with so many confusing price points and usually unthathomable jargon to contend with. There\u2019s no doubt that it can be bewildering. So what\u2019s the best way to go about buying tyres?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One option is to choose the same tyres that came with your car when it was new. In our latest tyre advice article, we introduce you to \u201cOriginal Equipment\u201d, what it is, and why it can help you make the right tyre choice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Okay, so what exactly is \u201cOriginal Equipment\u201d?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We promise that this is the only bit of jargon you\u2019ll read in this article. Put simply, Original Equipment \u2013 OE \u2013 are the tyres selected by a car manufacturer for a specific vehicle, and which are fitted to the vehicle when it\u2019s purchased new.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>OE tyres have to meet very strict performance and safety criteria, all of which are set by the car maker. All tyre manufacturers compete for OE status, because they want their tyres to be the Original Equipment on new cars when they roll off the production line and into the dealerships. This is fantastic for drivers, since the competition to be chosen drives tyre innovation and tyre safety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Undoubtedly the leading provider of Original Equipment <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.asdatyres.co.uk\/continental?utm_source=asda_tyres_blog&amp;utm_campaign=original_equipment_article_2017\">Continental Tyres<\/a><\/strong>. Automotive manufacturers prefer their premium tyres so much that one in every three new cars that roll off the production line in Europe are then sold fitted with their OE.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s not surprising really, considering their unrivalled wealth of tyre manufacturing experience and expertise. Continental invest vast sums of money year after year into research and development (R&amp;D). As a result it\u2019s a tyre brand that\u2019s highly trusted by car makers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:15px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.asdatyres.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/original_equipment_infographic_article_asdatyres.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.asdatyres.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/original_equipment_infographic_article_asdatyres.jpg\" alt=\"original equipment infographic\" class=\"wp-image-581 lazyload\" width=\"563\" height=\"927\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.asdatyres.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/original_equipment_infographic_article_asdatyres.jpg 655w, https:\/\/www.asdatyres.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/original_equipment_infographic_article_asdatyres-182x300.jpg 182w, https:\/\/www.asdatyres.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/original_equipment_infographic_article_asdatyres-621x1024.jpg 621w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 563px) 100vw, 563px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 563px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 563\/927;\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What makes OE so special?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In an incredibly painstaking process that can take anything up to four years to complete, tyre manufacturers like Continental work hand in hand with the world\u2019s leading car makers to produce precisely the right tyre for a specific vehicle model. Typically, this process involves around one hundred different attributes which are determined by the key characteristics of the car and are unique to each vehicle model.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Think about all that variation! For instance, there\u2019s a world of difference between the performance specifications and expectations of a Skoda Fabia and a Porsche Cayenne. Undoubtedly both are excellent vehicles, but each has its own distinctly different set of characteristics and attributes. For example, one requires tyres to enhance fuel efficiency and comfort, while the other needs them to support ultra-fast acceleration. We\u2019ll leave you to figure out which is which\u2026 hee hee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Joking aside, while OE tyres are all developed with safety as the paramount consideration, they\u2019re also designed to bring out the variety of characteristics you\u2019ll find amongst the wide array of different vehicle types currently available on the market. Perhaps the most important thing to remember is that the tyres on a brand new car aren\u2019t there by random accident.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is why when it comes to replacing your tyres, at Asda Tyres we recommend doing so with those that your car came with in the first place. Why? Because you\u2019ll have peace of mind knowing that they will continue to bring out the best characteristics in your car; That they\u2019re the safest option; And that you simply can\u2019t go wrong with the vehicle manufacturer\u2019s original choice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Okay, sounds good, but how can I tell if my tyres are OE?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Alongside the brand name (e.g. Continental) and the product name (e.g. <strong>\u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.asdatyres.co.uk\/continental\/premium-contact-5?utm_source=asda_tyres_blog&amp;utm_campaign=original_equipment_article_2017\">ContiPremiumContact 5<\/a>\u201d<\/strong>), there is more information that\u2019s provided in code, some of which tells you which car make and model your tyre is specifically made for.
