What to look for in Daihatsu Mira tyres

Light cars are the segment where the price gap between budget and premium tyres looks largest as a percentage, and where the performance gap is easiest to underestimate. Wet braking distance is the specification worth paying for; independent testing consistently shows a wide spread between the best and worst tyres in these smaller sizes.

Tread life and rolling resistance are the other two considerations, since these vehicles are usually bought to be cheap to run. Fitting the correct speed rating matters even if the car will never approach it, because speed rating also reflects the construction and heat tolerance the manufacturer specified.

Daihatsu Mira 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 Mira 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. Because the Mira is no longer sold new, availability in the original size is worth checking early — some older sizes are now made by fewer manufacturers, and the remaining stock can be several years old. Check the four-digit DOT date code on the sidewall so you know how long a tyre has been sitting before it goes on your car.
