Do I need to book an appointment?

No appointment needed — walk-ins are welcome and most jobs are done while you wait. If you'd like us to make sure your size is ready, send us a WhatsApp message or give us a call before you set off.

Are part-worn tyres safe and legal?

Yes — when they're sold properly. UK law (The Motor Vehicle Tyres (Safety) Regulations 1994) requires part-worn tyres to have at least 2mm of tread across their full width and circumference, no cuts, lumps, bulges or exposed cords, to pass an inflation test and to be permanently marked "PART WORN". Every part-worn tyre we sell is inspected inside and out to meet these standards.

What is the legal minimum tread depth in the UK?

For cars, the legal minimum is 1.6mm across the central three-quarters of the tread, around the entire circumference. Driving on illegal tyres can mean a fine of up to £2,500 and 3 penalty points per tyre. Most experts recommend replacing tyres at around 3mm, as wet braking performance drops noticeably below that.

How do I find my tyre size?

Your tyre size is printed on the sidewall of your tyre and looks something like 205/55 R16 91V. You can often find it inside the driver's door frame or in your handbook too. Not sure? Just send us your registration number and we'll look it up for you.

Which tyre brands do you supply?

We supply new tyres from all the major brands — including Michelin, Pirelli, Continental, Bridgestone, Goodyear, Dunlop, Falken and General Tire — plus quality mid-range and budget options, and a large stock of part-worn tyres.

How long does tyre fitting take?

Most tyre fittings are completed while you wait — usually well within the hour, depending on the job and how busy we are. Message us before you arrive and we'll have your tyres ready to go.

Should I have my wheels balanced with new tyres?

Yes — we recommend balancing whenever new tyres are fitted. It prevents vibration, protects your suspension and helps your new tyres wear evenly so they last longer.

Can you repair my puncture?

Often, yes. If the damage is in the central area of the tread and the tyre hasn't been driven on while flat, it can usually be repaired to British Standard BS AU 159. We always inspect the tyre inside and out and give you an honest answer.
