Wheels and Tyres

Safety First at AP Autocentre
Tyres are your only point of contact with the road surface. You cannot neglect the condition of your Tyres. If you do you could endanger not only yourself and your passengers, but also other road users.We recommend that you should check the condition of your Tyres regularly and at least once a month

Why should you check your tyres?

Did you know that you are not insured when driving on illegal tyres? Worn tyres significantly impede the performance and fuel ecconomy of your car.

Do not forget that a worn tyre reduces the effectiveness of braking, steering, and acceleration, all of which are vital in staying safe.

What we check

AP Autocentre have a five point tyre check:

  • Check overall condition of tyres, including inner and outer sidewalls
  • Check tyre tread depth
  • Check all tyre pressures
  • Check signs of irregular wear, i.e. alignment
  • Check and examine the spare tyre

Wheel Balancing

An unbalanced wheel does not just simply cause an annoying shake it can cause actual mechanical damage.We will always balance your wheel as a matter of course after replacing a tyre.

Wheel Refurbishment

We can refurbish your alloy wheels to as new condition by powdercoating them to a high quality finish.
