Tyres 2 Go Riccarton: Tyres, WoF and Full Automotive Care in Christchurch
Tyres 2 Go Riccarton is part of a locally owned Christchurch automotive group, with sister branches across the city and wider Canterbury in Opawa, Sydenham, New Brighton, Shirley, Rangiora, Burnside and Kaiapoi. The business describes itself as specialising in complete automotive care, covering everything from tyres to general servicing and mechanical repairs under one roof.
A Tyre Range for Every Budget
Tyres 2 Go stocks a wide range of tyre types, including passenger tyres, 4WD/SUV tyres, high performance tyres, van and light truck tyres, fuel efficient tyres, and run flat tyres, alongside dedicated budget and cheap tyre ranges for cost-conscious customers. The brand range on offer includes major names like Michelin, Bridgestone, Continental, Dunlop, Hankook, Kumho and Toyo, among others, giving customers a genuine choice between premium and value options depending on their needs and driving habits.
Full Tyre Servicing
Beyond selling tyres, Tyres 2 Go offers a complete tyre service menu: wheel alignment and balancing to improve handling and tyre life, tyre rotation for even wear, and both general tyre repair and puncture repair to fix minor damage. For customers with run flat tyres, dedicated run flat repair is also available, along with nitrogen tyre inflation for added protection against corrosion. One standout offering is the Door 2 Door Tyre Service, which brings tyre servicing directly to the customer rather than requiring an in-store visit.
General Servicing and Compliance
Tyres 2 Go also handles the essentials of vehicle compliance and upkeep, offering Warrant of Fitness (WoF) and Certificate of Fitness (CoF) checks to keep vehicles road-legal. General servicing covers oil changes, filtration services, battery replacement, air conditioning repair, suspension work, and pre-purchase car inspections for anyone buying a used vehicle. Structured Car/Vehicle Service Packages are also available for ongoing maintenance.
Deeper Mechanical and Driveline Work
For more involved mechanical needs, Tyres 2 Go offers driveline and transmission services, including automatic, CVT and manual transmission servicing, along with front and rear differential and transfer case service. The mechanical repairs list covers brakes, engine repairs, radiator and cooling system work, exhaust and muffler repairs, suspension and steering, and heating and air-conditioning repairs. Auto electrical work is also available, covering lighting repairs, sound system, alarm and wiring issues, and diagnosing dash warning lights.
Servicing Hybrid and Electric Vehicles
Recognising the shift toward newer vehicle technology, Tyres 2 Go offers dedicated servicing and repair for both hybrid and electric vehicles, using advanced diagnostic tools suited to these vehicle types. It's a sign the business is keeping pace with the kinds of cars now on New Zealand roads, rather than only catering to traditional petrol and diesel vehicles.
