Mag & Turbo Tyre and Service Centre Porirua sits at 9 Tutuira Place in Porirua City Centre, and for more than 25 years this locally owned and operated workshop has been a fixture of the Porirua community. The store describes itself as the one-stop shop for all your tyre and vehicle servicing needs, with an expert team dedicated to exceptional service, top-quality vehicle servicing and accessories.
The offering is genuinely broad. Mag & Turbo Porirua supplies and fits high-quality mag wheels in black, machined, gunmetal, white or silver finishes, with in-house wheel repair available, plus tyres from trusted brands including GT, Nexen, Maxxis, Accelera, Falken, Michelin, Pirelli and Wrangler. Regular servicing comes in basic, standard and premium options alongside Warrant of Fitness checks, covering everything from oil and filter changes to diagnostic scans and wheel alignments.
Beyond tyres and servicing, the team handles comprehensive brake repair and maintenance, suspension upgrades from lowering spring kits to 4x4 lift kits and adjustable coilovers, LVVTA certification for modified vehicles, and ceramic coating and detail work. Tyres bought here are backed by the Tyre Service Promise: free front wheel balancing, free tyre rotations and free puncture repair for the life of your tyres. With MTA Assured status, a tyre kilometre warranty and finance options available, it is easy to see why Mag & Turbo has earned its position as the region's top choice for customising, servicing and caring for your vehicle.
Pull into 9 Tutuira Place in Porirua City Centre and you will find one of the region's most established automotive workshops. Mag & Turbo Tyre and Service Centre Porirua is part of a name New Zealand drivers associate with mag wheels and tyres, and for over 25 years this store has been locally owned and operated in the Porirua community. In that time it has earned its position as the region's top choice for customising, servicing and caring for vehicles of every kind.
The team describes the branch as a one-stop shop for tyres and vehicle servicing, and the service list backs that up. From a new set of rubber to a Warrant of Fitness, from brake pads to a full suspension overhaul, most of what a car needs can be handled on site by the same expert team, backed by MTA Assured standards.
Custom wheels are where Mag & Turbo made its name, and the Porirua store supplies and fits mag wheels across five finishes: black, machined, gunmetal, white and silver. Damage is not the end of a good wheel either, because the workshop offers in-house wheel repair, so kerbed or scuffed rims can often be restored rather than replaced.
On the tyre side, the store carries the trusted brands drivers ask for by name, including GT, Nexen, Maxxis, Accelera, Falken, Michelin, Pirelli and Wrangler. Once your new tyres are fitted, wheel and tyre balancing and rotation keep them wearing evenly, and wheel alignments help you get the maximum life out of the investment.
Regular servicing comes in basic, standard and premium options, with Warrant of Fitness checks available alongside. A service can include oil and filter changes, diagnostic scans, coolant and power steering fluid checks and top-ups, air and fuel filter replacements, and shock absorber checks.
Brake work is comprehensive too: pad and disc replacement, brake fluid top-ups, shoe and drum replacement, and unseizing brake callipers. Enthusiasts and off-roaders are well catered for, with lowering spring kits, 4x4 lift kits, adjustable coilovers and a wide range of shock absorbers for many makes and models, plus replacement suspension arms, bushes and mounts.
Two more specialised services round out the offering: Low Volume Vehicle Technical Certification (LVVTA) for modified vehicles, and ceramic coating and detail work to keep your paint looking fresh.
Buying tyres here comes with ongoing perks. When you collect your vehicle you will notice a Tyre Service sticker on the windscreen, which entitles you to free front wheel balancing, free tyre rotations and free puncture repair from the store of purchase for the life of your tyres. Struck by tyre trouble while out of town? Any Mag & Turbo Tyre and Service Centre will carry out those same jobs at 50% off the regular retail price.
The store also promotes a tyre kilometre warranty on its tyres, and finance options are available for larger purchases, which helps when a full set of tyres or a suspension upgrade lands unexpectedly.
The workshop runs Monday to Friday from 8 am to 5 pm and Saturday mornings from 9 am to 12 pm, closing on Sundays. The team is always happy to help with questions about tyre maintenance and repair, or to assist in choosing the right tyres for your vehicle. Give them a call on 04 650 3334, or send your vehicle's year, make, model and registration through the website's contact form for a faster, more accurate response.
If you are coming in on a Saturday, remember it is a morning-only window, so arriving early is a smart move. Whether it is a puncture, a WOF, a new set of wheels or a complete suspension transformation, Mag & Turbo Porirua has spent more than 25 years earning the trust of local drivers, and the workshop on Tutuira Place is where it happens.
