Hello.

Can anyone tell me as getting different opinions.

Do the tyres need to be changed due to the cracking bits in the outer tread? The tyres were only put on in November 2020.

If meed replacing was looking at budget brands like Aptany, Roadmarch, Acellera.

Any thoughts on these?

Looks quite minor to me. When were they made? I've never heard of any of the brands you've quoted.

They were made early 2020.

So think they are ok, and not needing new tyres just yet?

These are nankang.

I have 1 evergreen tyre on back with a part worn Yokohoma. Think this will be OK too?

Personally I always have a full set of matching tyres. I certainly wouldn't have a car with different tyres on the same "axle".

Ok. So think if I put these to the back and get some new tyres for front, they should be OK?

Or just move these to the back and get same brand for front?

You should always put the tyres with the most tread on the back... So new on the back!
