On the drive

From an Audi RS6 to an Aventador.

Garages, driveways and airfields. Whatever you drive, the wheel comes off, the tyre is changed and balanced, and it goes back on with every nut torqued.

Tyre Replacement Procedure

The same careful routine, every wheel.

Only once every stage is done is our service to you complete.

  1. Stage 01

    Locking off of the wheel nuts.

  2. Stage 02

    The vehicle is then jacked into position using manufacturers recommended jacking points.

  3. Stage 03

    Once the car is jacked, we remove the nuts completely with our power torque wrenches. Then take the wheel off the vehicle.

  4. Stage 04

    We remove all the existing balance weight from the wheel before placing it onto our state of the art tyre removal/fitting machine.

  5. Stage 05

    Using this automated machine, we remove the tyre from the wheel ensuring no damage is done to the rim in the process.

  6. Stage 06

    Ensure the wheel inner rim is clean.

  7. Stage 07

    Replacement of the old valve with a correctly fitted new valve.

  8. Stage 08

    Mounting of the new tyre onto the wheel using the same machine we used to remove the old tyre.

  9. Stage 09

    The wheel is then inflated to the correct manufacturers recommended pressure for the tyre and vehicle in question.

  10. Stage 10

    Wheel is removed from the tyre-fitting machine and mounted into place on the computerised wheel-balancing machine.

  11. Stage 11

    Once a discrepancy is found within the balance of the wheel, the computerised balancer locates this and the correct weight is added onto the rim of the wheel to balance the wheel out.

  12. Stage 12

    The wheel is then remounted onto the hub, then using existing wheel nuts, the wheel is tightened onto the car using air powered torque wrench.

  13. Stage 13

    The vehicle is lowered off the jack and all wheel nuts are checked for correct torque.

  14. Done

    Back on your way, without leaving the house.

Called late night on 30/12/23 as a pot hole had blown one of my tyres. They offered to come out within 90 mins to replace the tyre.

My car was being recovered by the AA, when I called them to say I was home and ready when they were, they asked if I’d prefer to come out the next day (new years eve) as it was a cheaper call out and would save me money - amazing service!

The engineer arrived earlier than the time given, promptly fixed my tyre and gave me advice regarding the damage the pot hole caused.

For the time of year, call out time and quality of the workmanship given the price was amazing- I was initially expecting to pay double what I did.

Genuinely cannot thank them or recommend them enough, great service, great price…. I have saved the number for future reference. I’ll be using these guys instead of going to a garage.

Thank you once again for everything!

“Had the pleasure of dealing with these guys today, excellent communications, kept me informed every step of the way due to my tyres being delivered to them later than anticipated. Super service from young Jack, would definitely use these guys again and would highly recommend, don’t just take my work for it, give them a try, I’m sure you won’t regret it! Superb *****”

Tyre advice

Know how to get the best out of your tyres.

A few minutes checking your tyres now is nothing next to your safety and your family’s.

UK tyre law

The main reason a tyre has tread is to disperse water efficiently. The less tread you have, the more likely you are to skid or aquaplane on wet roads and lose steering control.

It is illegal to run a tyre with less than 1.6mm of tread round the entire outer circumference of the tyre. Tyre manufacturers build tread wear indicator bars into the tread which become visible at 1.6mm. Wet weather braking and cornering reduce considerably as the tyre wears down, so we strongly advise that you change your tyres before you reach the legal limit.

The penalty is severe: a compulsory driving licence endorsement of three penalty points and a fine of up to £2,500 for each illegal tyre.

Caring for your tyres

Did you know that you are not insured when driving on illegal tyres? A worn tyre reduces the effectiveness of braking, steering and acceleration, all of which are vital in staying safe.

Check these at least once a month, if not every few weeks:

  • Check tyre pressures
  • Check condition of the tyre
  • Check tyre tread depth
  • Check wheel nuts are secure

Changing a tyre at the roadside can be a dangerous job. A hazard-warning triangle placed well back from the car, a fluorescent body strap and your hazard lights all help oncoming traffic see you, especially on blind bends and dark winter evenings.

Can my puncture be repaired?

Repairing a tyre is not as straightforward as you first might think. Tyre repairs are covered by BSAU159f:1990, which splits repairs into minor and major repairs and sets limits on the location, size and number of repairs that can be carried out. A tyre must always be checked thoroughly before it is repaired.

A tyre should not be repaired if it shows any of these:

  • Illegal tread depth (below 1.6mm across the central ¾ of the tread)
  • Run flat damage
  • Secondary damage caused by the injuring object
  • Ageing or deterioration of tyre rubber
  • Bead damage
  • Exposed cords
