Tyre maintenance and timely replacements will actually save you money! Your tyres, being the only part of your vehicle to touch the road, are critical to ensuring safe motoring. Correctly inflated tyres will also increase your fuel efficiency. So by adhering to a routine maintenance and replacement regime you will save money not to mention make sure you and your loved ones are safer on the road.

Tyre Inflation

Check the recommendations on your door panel which will give you the optimum inflation level which you should always fill to. Too little or too much air is bad for your road holding, fuel consumption and life of your tyre. Correctly inflated tyres will wear more evenly making replacing them in twos or fours a better option.

Tyre Replacement

Ideally your should replace your tyres in fours. You can replace your tyres in twos and should ensure that any new tyres you put on your car go onto the back. Looking after your tyres and making sure they are the recommended tyres for your vehicle will extend the life of your tyres.

Picking a Reputable Tyre Dealer

Using an ITIA member for your tyres will give you the peace of mind to know you are using an experienced and reputable business. Tyre and Service Superstore are a member of the ITIA and all employees are well versed in all current tyre safety and best practise in tyre repairs and fitting. We also use Crumb Rubber to dispose of all waste tyres in a responsible manner.

Free Tyre Health Check

With road conditions being ever more challenging for motorists, now is an ideal time to check your tyre depth and inflation levels. If you have any doubt over your tyres you should take your vehicle into any Tyre and Service Superstore where we can perform a tyre health check free of charge all year round. Your tyre depth should be a minimum 1.6mm.

Run Flat Tyres

Several innovative designs have been introduced that permit tyres to run safely with no air for a limited range at a limited speed. These tyres typically feature strong, load-supporting sidewalls. Run flat tyres are primarily fitted to German vehicles.
Tyre and Service Superstore sell a wide range of Continental Run Flat Tyres.

TPMS (Tyre Pressure Monitoring Systems)

Additionally from 2012, new vehicles sold in the EU are required by law to have a Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS). TPMS is an active system that measures tyre pressure and sends it to a central computer. Electronic circuitry mounted inside the valve stem, measures the tyre pressure reporting back to the control unit of the vehicle. All Tyre and Service Superstore employees are fully trained in the operation of TPMS.
