A taller, heavier body has to carry weight and stay settled in the wet. For year-round UK use, a quality all-season or premium touring tyre with the right load rating is the sweet spot.

The Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross typically runs 215/70 R16, 225/55 R18 on 16 to 18 inch wheels. A taller, heavier compact suv works its tyres harder in corners and in the wet, so a strong wet-grip rating and a load rating that matches the weight are worth more than simply buying the cheapest tyre in the size.

Recommended pressures

Your Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross's recommended pressures are on the placard in the driver's door shut or fuel flap, and in the handbook. Set them cold, and raise them when fully loaded or towing. Our guide to correct tyre pressure and where to find your figures cover the detail.

What to watch on a Eclipse Cross

A heavier body wears the shoulders if pressures drop, so keep them topped up and watch both edges. See both edges worn from under-inflation if you spot it.
