Caravan Tyres fitted in Shrewsbury

One of our many returning customers, a local caravan dealership, needed 2 tyres changing on a single axle caravan, they already had the tyres ready to fit, all Mark needed to do was fit them!

The process of this involved Mark removing the wheel and taking it to the van removing the valve core to deflate the tyre, and, using his machine broke the seals between the tyre and the rim. The wheel was then put on the turntable and using a tyre lever the tyre was removed from the rim. There were no Tyron bands installed, which makes the job easier! The old valve was then cut out and a new valve inserted. Mark then cleaned the inside of the rim and then put a coat of tyre paste before fitting the new tyre. He then inflated the tyre to the correct pressure (which was printed on a plate by the caravan door). The wheel was then placed onto the wheel balancing machine and spun to reveal the inaccuracies; weights were then clipped to the wheel to get the wheel balanced correctly.

Mark being the perfectionist that he is, then cleaned the alloys and the tyre, gave it a bit of the 'Mark sparkle' and the tyre was ready!

Once completed the wheel was mounted back onto the caravan and the wheel nuts tightened to the correct torque settings. The caravan was lowered and the jack taken to the other side to repeat the process.

Another happy customer!
