You
can search the tyres by size (like width, height, breadth, weight or speed
index etc) and by vehicle.You have the way to select the brand, range, model as
well as engine of your favorite vehicle. It helps to find the pressure which is
recommended by the tyre manufacturer and the approved dimensions. You have the
option to compare performance of all tyres which are available with over 50
manufacturer companies. See their labels to calculate the savings with tyre
labeling simulator. The comparison price also permits you to see the price
ranges of major sale networks in UK. At that time, you are capable to find a
dealer nearby. The relocation system of tyre fitting centers is quite helpful
to customers.
The
more money I spend for better quality tyre (or, you get what you pay for).
No,
not necessarily true!
Many
of the more recent brands on the market are just as good if not better than the
brands that have traditionally been known as the ‘best’ tyres. Consumers will
often pay a lot more for these traditional’ brands as they are convinced that
the tyres offer advantages that no others can.
We
have chosen different tyre brands which offer great handling, good quality
performance and wear characteristics, while also offering value and
affordability, without compromising quality.
I
mainly drive around town and drive carefully so a budget tyre is fine for me!
In
the interests of your safety and the safety of others who are using the road or
even pedestrians, we believe that ‘budget’ tyres are not a good option. No
matter how safely you may think you drive, circumstances often occur where you
need to be able to rely on the grip and handling ability of the tyres on your
vehicle to keep you or others safe.
You
may need to stop suddenly or accidentally take a corner a little faster than
expected. Budget tyres can offer poor grip and inferior handing ability in
difficult situations.
Apart
from these safety concerns, cost cutting in producing the compound used to make
budget tyres means that the tyres will probably wear out much faster and will
therefore not save you money in the long run.
Even
worse than the above, budget tyres have created unhealthy competition, forcing
many quality tyre makers to also produce a line of budget tyres. The brand of
your tyre does not therefore necessarily mean that it is top quality,
represents value for money or is safe.
Tyres
with a larger diameter and width are not worth it because they are dearer.
Again,
not necessarily true - maybe true for the most timid driver, but more rubber on
the road means more grip, better handling and better tyre wear.
In
our experience many vehicles come out with tyres that are too small for their
weight and for optimum safety, especially on larger vehicles that are heavier
and can also carry heavy loads.
In
the interests of safety, handling and value for money we recommend that you
purchase the widest tyres your vehicle and rims can handle. If the compound is
good quality, the more rubber on the road equals better grip and longer life.
Tyre
fitters don’t like to fit tyres they don’t sell!
Many
tyre fitters are quite happy to fit tyres they haven’t sold you.
The
best thing to do is ring around as prices vary a lot. Look for someone who will
do it for a good price and no questions asked.
We
are compiling a huge list of tyre fitters as well as the balancers nationwide
who we can recommend to our customers. If you have a good experience please let
us know who, where and how much.
Internet
tyre sales are going to ruin tyre dealers!
With
the advancement of internet in industry, the number of vehicles appears in the
online world to allure multiple customers and production of tyres is also
increasing. We believe that internet sales will be a small but significant
portion of industry growth that will grow alongside, not instead of, physical
shops, as most customers with runabouts are happy to go down to their local
shop, order tyres and have them fitted.
There
is a growing group who do like to shop on the internet and it is these people,
who like to research their purchase and order online, receive a delivery and
arrange fitting and balancing, that will save money for their efforts. The
savings increase as the size of the vehicle increases. The most savings will be
on tyres for the large SUV’s and 4x4’s.
