Wheel Balancing

Does your steering wheel shake or vibrate at certain speeds? If so, it could be caused by a missing or shifted wheel weight and may be the reason for the vibration.

It's all about tyre balance

It's all about tyre balance

Wheel balancing ensures each tyre spins smoothly and evenly on its axis, helping to reduce vibrations and provide a more comfortable ride. Because each tyre and wheel assembly is weighted slightly differently, balancing is an important part of maintaining your tyres.

It’s a good idea to balance your tyres whenever you rotate them, as changing their position can cause vibration. The Discount Tyres team recommend doing both at the same time to keep things running smoothly.

Puncture Repair

Puncture Repair

We all know a puncture can strike anywhere, but unless you have no option, don’t be tempted to drive on your punctured tyre. 
It is not safe and you’ll likely damage it beyond repair. Pull over, replace with it your spare, and bring it in to Discount Tyres.
Tyre Rotation

Tyre Rotation

Eliminate excessive wear on the front and rear tyres with a tyre rotation every 10,000 kilometres or 6 months. The Discount Tyre team can help you with wheel alignment and wheel balancing services too.
Wheel Alignment

Wheel Alignment

If your car pulls to one side, your steering wheel isn’t straight, or your tyres are wearing unevenly, it’s time for a wheel alignment. Properly aligned wheels improve handling and help your tyres last longer. Visit one of our four Auckland locations and the Discount Tyres team will get you back on track.

Very genuine, helpful, awesome people to deal with. I rocked up with my car on a tow truck - they helped me get back get on the road within a few hours, even though my tyres had to be ordered in. They gave me great options as well, with pro's and con's, so I could make a good decision (as someone who has no idea!). Highly recommend!

Amazing service. Visiting from UK and have hire car. Didn’t know any tyre places and just drove in with no booking as low tyre pressure light on. Only waited 10mins before Stu checked and found a small puncture. Repaired it instantly and we were on our way. Very reasonably priced and great service from both Stu and Hamish. Would highly recommend.

Called in for a new tyre and wheel alignment at 11.30am on Saturday. Despite the shop closing at 12.30pm, Nick was able to complete both services quickly. Upon arrival, I was immediately welcomed with a warm and genuine demeanour while receiving high-quality service. Would highly recommend for anyone looking for new tyres at a fair price.
