Van tyres
Van tyres, including twin rear wheels
Transits, Sprinters, Crafters and the box van that should not have gone down that lane. Load ratings and twin wheels, not car tyres with bigger writing.
Van tyres carry a load index for a reason. On a twin rear wheel, get the inner tyre wrong and the outer one does all the work until it gives up too.
We fit the common 15-inch and 16-inch commercial sizes, and plenty of 17-inch now that newer vans sit on them. If you are on a 3.5-tonne vehicle with a tail lift, tell us before we arrive so we know where to park.
One van or a small fleet, the first message is the same. There is no account or contract you have to sign up to.
What to tell us
- The size and the load index — the numbers after the size, such as 109/107.
- Whether it is a single or a twin rear wheel.
- What the van is carrying, and whether it can be unloaded if needed.
- Where it is parked, and whether there is room beside it for our van.
In the districts
Where this job tends to find us
We do this anywhere in our thirty districts. These are three places where the ground makes it more likely to be needed.
Price first
Ask for a price: van tyres
Tell us where the car is and what has happened. We reply with a price and an honest idea of how far away the van is, before anything is agreed.

Other jobs
The rest of what the van does
- New tyresGive us the size from the sidewall and where the car is. We bring the tyre, take the old one off and torque the wheel on the same ground.
- Puncture repairA hole in the middle of the tread can often be repaired properly from the inside. A cut in the sidewall cannot, and we will tell you which you have.
- Locking wheel nutsThe key is in the glovebox, or it is not. Tell us which before we set off and the right removal kit comes with the van.
- Run-flatsThey still go down and they still have to come off at the roadside. They are heavier and stiffer, and they hide a puncture until the warning light comes on.
- Jump startsLights left on, a cold morning, or a car that sat in a station car park for a week. We jump it if it will take a jump, and we say so if it will not.
- RecoveryA blowout on the A27, a wheel that will not turn, or a car in a ditch off a Downs lane. What cannot be fixed where it stands, we lift and move.
