What to look for in Aston Martin DB12 tyres

At this level the tyre is a homologated component. Manufacturers develop specific compounds and constructions with a tyre maker and identify them with a marking on the sidewall — N-codes, K1, MC, AMG, MO and similar. Fitting an unmarked tyre in the same nominal size is not equivalent, because the marked version differs in construction, compound and sometimes in the exact dimensions.

Two things bite owners of low-kilometre cars in particular. High-performance compounds harden with age regardless of tread depth, so the DOT date code matters as much as the wear. And cars stored for long periods can develop flat spots that never fully resolve. Staggered front and rear fitments are almost universal here, so both sizes need checking before ordering.

Aston Martin DB12 tyre sizes and fitment

Before you order, check the placard on your own vehicle rather than relying on the size currently fitted — previous owners change wheels and tyres more often than you would think. The placard gives the original size, the minimum load index and speed rating, and the recommended cold inflation pressures. If your DB12 has aftermarket wheels, the overall rolling diameter should stay within a few per cent of standard so the speedometer, ABS and stability control continue to read correctly.
