Because of the delays in the production of our next lease Kodiaq (ordered in late July, factory hasn't even accepted order to date) it meant we had to extend our current Kodiaq lease.

 

This extra time with the car means it is now due a service and the front tyres need replacing 😠   I obviously don't want to spend much on doing this.

 

I assume I can just used my local independent car garage (who I trust) rather than a main dealer for the service?

 

Can I put any tyres on, as long as they are the correct sizing?

Best check your agreement T&C's.

 

Always makes sense during a lease to have wheels / tyres changed from back to front / front to back. 

 

Are the fronts that far gone that they are not safe to move those wheels / tyres to the rear?

Thanks.  The fronts are very borderline and we could be driving it around for a good few months yet.  In the winter too...

Bit late now, but it is sensible to swap tyres front-back half way through a lease, that way can often return the car with original tyres, much cheaper to swap the wheels around than buy 2 new tyres.

 

You will need to check small print of the lease return, but usually any replacement tyres have to be equivalent quality, which means can’t return with budget tyres if you got it with premium tyres.
