Why choose us

A tyre service that feels premium.

Our new garage on Lobley Hill Road was built around one idea: the kind of service you’d expect at a main dealer, at prices that are hard to beat.

Four reasons drivers come back.

Huge stock

Over 1,000 tyres, so you'll usually have two or three options for your size, today.

Fast turnaround

Walk in with a puncture, drive out within the hour. That's what our reviews say.

Alloy-safe care

Performance wheels handled properly. No scratched rims, no shortcuts.

Prices that won't be beat

Balancing from £5, swaps from £15, repairs from £15. No surprises.

8.0

mm tread depth

0mm · 2mm · 4mm · 6mm · 8mm (new)

Tread check

How much tread is left?

Drag the slider to match your tyre. New tyres start at around 8mm; the UK legal minimum is 1.6mm across the central three-quarters of the tread.

Illegal

Replace these now.

Below 1.6mm you risk a fine of up to £2,500 and 3 penalty points per tyre. Grip in the wet is seriously reduced.

Replace soon

Time to start looking.

Still legal, but wet braking distances grow quickly below 3mm. Most experts recommend replacing around here.

Keep an eye

Plenty left, for now.

Your tyres are in decent shape. Check the depth and pressures monthly, and look out for uneven wear.

Healthy

Good to go.

Great tread depth. Keep them balanced and at the right pressure and they’ll last.

Best about the area no doubt — always stocked with the best tyres, will always have 2/3 types at least to choose from. Prices won't be beat neither. 100% recommend.

Developed a puncture just round the corner and found this place. Was seen straight away, new tyre ordered and fitted within an hour of walking in off the street. Really good price. Highly recommend.

I couldn't believe the level of professionalism and courtesy from Liam. I've not experienced that level of service for a long time. Thank you and I'll be back!

Called into Liam's as he was recommended to me by a friend, and I wasn't disappointed. Sorted my tyres and the tyre sensors, and the price was perfect. 10 out of 10, thank you.

Contacted these late at night. Fitted me in the next morning. Tyre changed within half an hour. Very professional and friendly. Will definitely be using again.
