TYRE SERVICES
There are a range of different services to suit your needs and help you get the most out of your tyres. Find out more below.
FLAT TYRE REPAIR
There are several causes that will result in air loss in your tyres. Sometimes, it can be better to replace the tyre instead of repairing it. • Rapid leak - indicates a puncture. • Slow leak - indicates damage to the wheel bead or sidewall.
FOUR-WHEEL ALIGNMENT
Regular wheel alignment ensures you don’t drift to one side while driving as well as reducing general wear and tear.
TYRE PRESSURE
To ensure maximum performance, it is important to maintain your vehicle’s tyre pressure at the amount recommended by the manufacturer. • Low Pressure – poor fuel economy, clumsy cornering. • High Pressure – reduced traction, potential for tyre blowout.
TYRE ROTATION
By regularly rotating all four tyres on your vehicle, you can ensure even wear and tear. Factors that can contribute to uneven wear and tear: • Different weights on front and rear axles. • Mechanical issues . • How tightly you turn on each side .
