Looking after your tyres
Looking after your tyres extends their lifespan and improves safety. Regularly check tyre pressures, inspect for uneven wear, and avoid kerb impacts where possible. Proper alignment and balancing prevent premature wear, while rotating tyres helps maintain even tread depth. When driving, pay attention to these areas to help maintain overall vehicle safety:
- Tyre pressure
- Tread depth
- Signs of impact damage
- Sidewall condition
- Driving style
- Vehicle pulling
We recommend professional tyre inspections during servicing or whenever you notice changes in handling, noise, or fuel economy.

TYRE Service FAQs
Answering your frequently asked questions about our tyres
BOOK YOUR TYRE APPOINTMENTHow often should I replace my car tyres?
Car tyres should be replaced when tread depth reaches 1.6mm across the central three-quarters, or earlier if wear is uneven or damage is present. Most tyres last between 20,000 and 30,000 miles depending on driving habits, alignment, and tyre quality. Age also matters, as rubber degrades over time even if tread remains
Do you offer tyres for vans and commercial vehicles?
Yes, we supply and fit tyres for vans and light commercial vehicles, including reinforced and load-rated options. Correct tyre selection is essential for carrying capacity, stability, and compliance, and we advise accordingly.
How long does tyre fitting take?
A standard tyre replacement usually takes 20–30 minutes per tyre, including balancing. Mobile tyre fitting times are similar, depending on access and conditions. Full sets can often be completed within an hour.
Are part-worn tyres a good option?
Part-worn tyres are cheaper but come with higher risk due to unknown history and reduced lifespan. For safety and value, new tyres are generally recommended, especially for daily drivers or motorway use.
What happens if I drive on worn tyres?
Driving on worn tyres increases stopping distances, reduces grip in wet conditions, and risks fines and penalty points. Severely worn tyres can fail suddenly, leading to loss of control. Replacing tyres promptly is a safety and legal necessity.
What tyre size does my car need?
Your tyre size is listed on the sidewall of your current tyres and in your vehicle handbook. It’s shown as a series of numbers and letters, such as 205/55 R16. Using the correct size is essential for handling, braking, and insurance compliance.
Can a punctured tyre always be repaired?
No, not all punctures are repairable. Repairs are only safe when damage is within the central tread area and the tyre structure isn’t compromised. Sidewall damage, large holes, or run-flat damage usually require tyre replacement for safety reasons.
