Warning Signs You Need New Tyres
Don't wait for a blowout. If you notice any of these, get your tyres checked at TGPP Autocare in Stevenage.
Tread Depth Below 3mm
The legal minimum is 1.6mm, but safety experts recommend replacing tyres at 3mm. Below this, wet-weather stopping distances increase dramatically.
Bulges or Blisters
A bulge on the sidewall means the internal structure of the tyre has been damaged. This is dangerous and the tyre should be replaced immediately.
Persistent Slow Puncture
If you're regularly topping up the same tyre, there could be a nail, screw, or faulty valve. Some slow punctures can be repaired; others require a new tyre.
Vibration or Pulling
Vibration through the wheel or the car pulling to one side can point to a tyre issue, wheel imbalance, or alignment problem — all of which we can diagnose and fix.
TPMS Warning Light
The tyre pressure monitoring system light indicates low pressure or a sensor fault. Ignoring it risks tyre damage, poor handling and reduced fuel economy.
Cracking or Age
Rubber degrades over time. Even if tread looks fine, tyres older than 5–6 years should be inspected, and those over 10 years old should always be replaced.
Spread the Cost with 0% Finance
New tyres can be an unexpected expense. That's why we offer 0% PaymentAssist finance — spread the cost over 3, 4, 6 or up to 9 monthly payments with zero interest and no hidden fees.
Tyre Questions Answered
Common questions from drivers in Stevenage and Hertfordshire about tyres and tyre fitting.
Tyre prices vary depending on the brand, size, and specification of the tyre your car requires. At TGPP Autocare we stock options across all price points — from premium brands to reliable budget alternatives. Call us on 01438 232556 with your tyre size and we'll give you a fast, no-obligation quote.
If the tyre is still holding reasonable pressure, it is often possible to drive a short distance carefully — however, this is a risk. A tyre that loses pressure suddenly can cause loss of control. If you're unsure, it's safer to inflate the tyre to the correct pressure first, then drive directly to us without stopping. If the tyre is flat or very low, call us for advice before driving on it.
Not always. British Standard BS AU 159 defines the repairable zone — roughly the central three-quarters of the tread area. Punctures in the sidewall, shoulder area, or larger than 6mm in diameter cannot be safely repaired and the tyre must be replaced. We will always give you an honest assessment and show you exactly why a repair isn't safe if that's the case.
A single tyre can typically be fitted in around 20–30 minutes including removing the old tyre, fitting and inflating the new one, and re-balancing the wheel. A full set of four tyres usually takes around an hour. We'll always give you an accurate time estimate when you book.
It's strongly recommended to replace tyres in pairs on the same axle. Mismatched tyres — even from the same brand — can cause handling imbalances, especially in wet conditions. If budget is a concern and only one tyre is urgently needed, we'll advise on the best option for your situation and flag if the other tyre on the same axle is approaching replacement time.
The TPMS (Tyre Pressure Monitoring System) light can come on for several reasons: one or more tyres may simply be low on pressure (common in cold weather), a tyre may have a slow puncture, or a TPMS sensor may be faulty or have a flat battery. We can diagnose the cause and fix it — whether that's topping up the pressure, repairing a puncture, or replacing a sensor.
Yes — in most cases. We stock a wide range of tyre sizes, so if we have the right tyre in stock we can often fit it the same day. Call ahead on 01438 232556 to check availability and book a convenient slot.
