Although Tyres-Online is not tyre dealer itself, we operate
an online sales
facility in conjunction with our sister site www.tyrepriceadvisor.co.uk
and in co-operation with several online retail partners, which
allows consumers to buy tyres via our secure online shopping
facility.
For all prices and quotations click
here.
If you are a UK based consumer looking for a local dealer,
please use our online
sales facility, which will allow you to buy online through
one of our retail partners.
If you are a consumer based outside the UK please make use
of our tyre links section which includes links to a large
number of overseas tyre dealers as well as to tyre manufacturers'
home pages, many of which provide their own dealer database
functions.
If you simply need a contact address or phone number and
you can't find it on this page, in the tyre links section
or elsewhere on the web, e-mail us and we'll try to help if
we can.
Our policy is not to recommend one particular brand of tyre
against another. The main reason for this is that the suitability
of particular tyres
for particular drivers depends on a considerable variety of
factors such as driving style, where you drive, road surfaces,
climate, your vehicle, your own preferences in terms of performance
characteristics and price and, of course, your own perception.
We have, however, tried to provide as much information as
we can to help you make an informed choice. In the product
database section you will find information on the performance
characteristics and size range of a wide range of car tyres
for the European market.
To help you further, we have also reviewed a number of the
tyre tests, which have taken place in various consumer magazines.
For further information, or for tyres designed for markets
outside Europe check the web sites of the various tyre manufacturers
via our tyre links section or contact the manufacturers direct.
You can find links to tyre fitment
guides provided by a variety of tyre manufacturers by clicking
here.
If, however, you are looking for advice on alternative fitments,
the best bet is to contact the vehicle manufacturer for advice
on what is possible. Information, however, on various options
in switching to wider, lower profile tyres, is available in
our technical section, which also includes
information on speed ratings, tyre sizes, inflation pressures
etc.
We receive large numbers of e-mails from readers wanting
to know recommended tyre pressures for alternative tyre fitments.
We don't carry this information at Tyres-Online but the technical
departments of the tyre manufacturers do. For head office
telephone numbers for the UK and worldwide, click the appropriate
hypertext link.
A substantial amount of tyre technical
information can be found via our technical section. However,
for help with specific problems, please contact our partner
retailers direct.
