Grip, braking and handling all depend on your tyres. Worn tread takes longer to stop, especially in the wet, and an under-inflated tyre wears faster and uses more fuel. We check tyres on every vehicle that comes in and tell you honestly how much life is left.
When you need new tyres, we quote the right size and type for your vehicle and the way you drive, then fit and balance them. For more detail on choosing tyres, see our tyre specialists page.
Time for new tyres if
- Tread is at or near the legal minimum of 1 mm, or the wear indicators are showing
- There are cuts, bulges or cracks in the sidewall
- Tyres are wearing unevenly
- The tyres are old and the rubber is cracking
- You have had repeated punctures
What we do
- Tyre supply and fitment
- Wheel balancing
- Wheel alignment
- Pressure checks, including the spare
- Puncture inspection and advice
- Valve replacement
Why uneven wear matters
If your tyres wear on one edge, your alignment or suspension is likely out. New tyres will wear the same way unless the cause is fixed, so we check suspension and alignment too.
Common questions
What is the legal tread depth?
In South Africa the minimum is 1 mm, but grip drops well before that. We recommend replacing earlier.
Do you supply all brands?
Tell us your vehicle and budget and we will quote suitable options.
Should I replace tyres in pairs?
At least in pairs per axle, so handling stays balanced.
Can you fix a puncture?
Many tread punctures can be repaired. Sidewall damage cannot. We inspect and advise.
