Servicing Tyres
Most sizes same or next day, fitted at our S13 workshop. Punctures repaired first where it is safe to.
Need tyres without the tyre shop circus? We supply and fit all major brands at our S13 workshop. Most sizes arrive the same day, next day at the latest, fitted, balanced and disposed of properly, with the price agreed on the phone before you drive down. Already booked in for a service or MOT? We can fit tyres in the same visit so you only lose one morning, not two.
Where the law allows a safe repair, a puncture in the main tread area with the tyre otherwise undamaged, we repair to British Standard at a fraction of the cost of a new tyre. Shoulder and sidewall damage cannot be repaired safely, and we will show you why rather than just say no. Run flats are replace only. They should not really be repaired, so we do not.
Pulling to one side, steering wheel off centre, or tyres wearing on one edge? Sheffield potholes knock tracking out constantly, and misalignment quietly eats new tyres in months. Tracking from £120 is arranged through our alignment partner in the same visit, and it is worth doing whenever new tyres go on because it protects the money you have just spent. On cars with driver assist systems, deeper geometry work can need ADAS recalibration. We can arrange that too and will tell you up front if your car needs it.
Modern cars watch their own tyre pressures until a sensor battery dies and the warning light stays on. We check TPMS sensors for faults and battery life, reset the system, and sort your pressures while we are at it. A TPMS fault is an MOT failure on cars that have it fitted, so do not ignore the light.
Tread, pressures and condition checked free. Drive in, two minutes, done. Below 3mm your braking distance in the wet grows noticeably, and at 1.6mm you are at the legal limit and MOT failure territory. We will tell you which you are, not just that you need tyres.
If it is in the central tread area and the tyre has not been run flat and damaged, usually yes, repaired to British Standard rather than a plug and hope. Sidewall and shoulder damage means replacement, and we will show you the reason. Run flats are always replace only.
Most common sizes arrive the same day, next day at the latest. We agree the price on the phone before you drive down.
1.6mm across the central three quarters of the tyre, but grip in the wet drops off well before that. We flag tyres at 3mm so you can plan rather than panic.
Legally yes, and ideally you match across an axle. We will advise the sensible cheapest option, not the dearest.
Yes. Tracking from £120 is arranged through our alignment partner in the same visit. If your tyres wear unevenly or the car pulls, get it checked before it costs you a pair of tyres.
