NZ WOF tyre standards
What we check before every tyre sale

All CFA tyres pass our full WOF inspection checklist before leaving our yard. No tyre is sold unless it passes every single check below.

Tread depth — 1.5mm minimum

Measured across the full width and around the entire circumference of every tyre, as required by NZTA Land Transport Rules.

No damage — cuts, bulges or cords

Each tyre checked for cuts deeper than 25mm, sidewall bulges, exposed cords, embedded objects and structural damage.

Speed & load rating visible

All sidewall markings clearly legible — brand, size, load rating, speed rating, and rotation direction where applicable.

Axle-matched sizing & pattern

Tyres on the same axle must share the same size, tread pattern type (directional, asymmetric, highway), and carcass construction.

Correct fitment orientation

Directional and asymmetric tyres oriented correctly for their intended rotation — a common WOF fail we always catch.

Right for your vehicle type

Our team matches the right tyre to your car, SUV, ute or van — ensuring WOF-compliant fitment every time.

Tread depth — know the legal limits

NZ law requires 1.5mm minimum. Experts recommend replacing at 3mm on Auckland's wet roads for real safety.

0mm — Illegal1.5mm — Legal min3mm — Recommended8mm — New
Below 1.5mm — illegal, WOF fail
1.5mm–3mm — legal, but replace soon
3mm+ — safe, WOF pass ✓

💡 Quick test: Insert a 20-cent coin into the tread groove. If you can see the "20" on the coin, your tread is dangerously low — get to CFA today.

Common questions
Tyre & WOF FAQs

Everything you need to know about buying used tyres and NZ WOF requirements.

What is the minimum tread depth to pass a WOF in New Zealand?

The legal minimum tread depth is 1.5mm across the full width and around the entire circumference of the tyre. All tyres sold at CFA meet or exceed this standard.

Can mismatched tyres fail a WOF?

Yes. Tyres on the same axle must be the same size, same tread pattern type, and same carcass construction. Mixing directional and non-directional tyres on the same axle will cause a WOF fail.

Are used tyres safe?

Yes — when properly inspected. At CFA every used tyre is checked for tread depth, sidewall condition, markings, and damage before sale. We only sell tyres that are road-legal and WOF-ready.

Do you have my tyre size in stock?

We carry a wide range for most popular cars, SUVs, utes, vans and Japanese imports. Call 0800 444 666 with your tyre size and we'll check stock right away.

What do I do if my tyre fails a WOF?

You have 28 days to fix the issue and return for a free recheck. Come to CFA for a replacement tyre at the best price in Auckland — we'll get you sorted fast.
