The Tyre Hotel
When tyres aren’t on your vehicle they need to be stored well to maintain their life. Ideally you want to stack your tyres so they are lying flat on the ground (ie the tread is not face down).
If you don’t have much storage at home – why not book in your tyres into our Tyre Hotel at Woodlands Service Centre.
We will label up your tyres and they will be safely stored till you make an appointment to refit them next year – costs are minimal and save you using up lots of space in your own garage or shed.
Come in and see us, or call us on 01479 872289.

Understanding tyre sizes
- Three-digit number on the side of the tyre ie 205 = tyre width in millimetres
- Two-digit number ie 55 = height of the tyre’s sidewall as a percentage of the width and known as the aspect ratio
- R = radial tyre (all tyres are now radial)
- Two-digit number ie 17 = diameter of the tyre in inches
Tyre care
By the time the tread is worn down to the legal limit – there must be at least 1.6mm of tread depth across the centre 3/4 of the width of the tread throughout the entire circumference of the tyre; no damage to the tyre body, sidewalls or tread; no bulges or cuts – they MUST be replaced.
We advise that worn tyres are replaced with new when the tread depth falls below 3mm and we strongly advise against the use of part worn or retreaded tyres.
Guidance on how to look after your tyres can be found in your car handbook, together with information about vehicle loading and tyre pressure adjuments which should be followed for safety.
Tyre pressures should always be checked and corrected (if necessary) when they are cold and it is vital that the correct pressures are maintained to ensure maximum tyre life, safety, the best ride and handling characteristics. Over or under-inflating tyres are likely to seriously impair their performance.
