Seasonal Tyre Swapping Basingstoke

Many of our customers have a set of specialised winter tyres for use in the winter months and a set of "standard" tyres for the remainder of the year. The softer rubber on winter tyres helps them grip icy roads, plus the tread is designed to retain compacted snow within the grooves so that when driving over snow the snow in the tyre groove "sticks" to the snow on the road helping you gain traction.

Our customers call us in to swap their tyres over at the appropriate time of year. This saves them the hassle of putting a set of tyres in the boot of the car and driving to a fitting centre for the swap to be completed. Don't forget, when you arrive at the fitting centre you then have to sit and wait your turn.

When we come to you, you are the sole focus of our attention! When you are ready to have your tyres swapped simply contact us by phone or use the "online chat" facility at the bottom of this page. We will come and carry out your tyre swap at the time and location of your convenience.

Horsebox and Trailer Tyres

Horseboxes and trailers are no different to any other vehicle on the road. All the advice given in respect of motor vehicles and caravans applies here. Always fit tyres that match the specification of the originals supplied by the manufacturers. Match tyres across the axles, if double axle, then match tyres all round.

Your spare tyre should be matched as well. Take care with older trailers that may have been fitted originally with cross ply tyres that are no longer available as when a change is required, radials will have to be fitted. If a trailer is converted from cross ply to radial then the radial tyres should only be fitted to safety rims (those with a flat ledge or hump on the bead seat).

Locking Wheel Nut Removal Basingstoke

If your vehicle requires a locking wheel nut adaptor to remove the wheels make sure you know where the adaptor is located on your vehicle as it can be impossible to remove a wheel without it. Hometyre offers a specialist service - if the adaptor is missing or damaged then call us and I will come and release the locking wheel nuts using special tools and advise accordingly. Please note that it may not be possible to release the locking wheel nut if it has been over-tightened previously.

Tyron Bands Basingstoke

We are regularly meeting Caravan owners who are concerned on the impact to them and their vehicle if they have a blow out on their journey and our advice is very simple have Tyron Bands fitted to your wheels to prevent the tyre leaving the rim in the event of a puncture. Most insurance companies will look favourably if they are fitted so your yearly premium could be reduced. I will come and supply new tyres and fit Tyron Bands or if your existing tyres are ok we will just fit Tyron Bands.

Puncture Repair in Basingstoke

If you are unlucky enough to get a puncture don't assume that you will need a new tyre. I can repair penetration punctures of up to 6mm If they occur in the central 65%-70% of the tread area. Of course the tyre will need to be worth repairing (Sufficient tread depth to make it worthwhile and not otherwise damaged). So call us and I can attend to get you mobile. If the tyre turns out to not be repairable I can quickly source a new tyre. Remember not to drive on a deflated tyre as that will definitely render it irreparable.

Whenever I carry out a puncture repair, the repair will meet the requirements of British Standard BS AU159 so that the tyre can still be used in line with its original design specification.

Wheel Alignment / Tracking Basingstoke

Hometyre vehicles carry laser wheel alignment gauges allowing us to check and if necessary adjust your wheel alignment. If your tyres have abnormal wear this can be due to incorrectly aligned wheels caused by pothole impact or possibly you've had some mechanical work carried out that affected the steering linkages.
