A tyre shop at 525 Blenheim Road in Sockburn, right by the Sockburn roundabout, and part of a South Island network with more than 50 mobile service vehicles. The website says it is 100% Kiwi-owned. The shop fits tyres for cars, 4x4s and SUVs, utes, vans, trucks and buses, and agricultural machinery. It also does wheel alignment, fitting and balancing, rotation, puncture repair, batteries, wheels, retreads and fleet service management. A free tyre safety check is offered, and on-farm service is available across the South Island. The phone number is 03 348 8422. After-hours call-outs are available for account customers and Farmlands or Ruralco cardholders, and call-out fees apply.
Customers mention wheel alignment most often, followed by puncture repairs. One reviewer said a nail in a tyre was checked quickly, found to be only on the surface, and no charge was made. Staff are described as welcoming and knowledgeable. The views are mixed: one customer who bought four new tyres said two were ruined within two weeks, and that the quality was poor on delivery. Of the four tyre shops nearby with 10 or more reviews, none rate higher than this one. The nearest are Road Rubber Tyre and Auto Sockburn, 0.3 km away, and Tyres 2 Go Riccarton, 0.5 km away.
