Tubby's Tyres is a tyre shop at 26 Camp St in Trentham, Upper Hutt, with a Google rating of 4.1.
A good tyre shop starts by looking at what your vehicle actually needs. The size, load and speed rating are printed on the tyre sidewall, and matching them matters more than the brand. Ask to see your tread depth, and look for cracks, bulges or uneven wear, which can point to pressure or alignment problems. Fitting normally includes balancing, and an alignment check is worthwhile after new tyres or a knock to the wheels. Tyre age counts as well as tread, because rubber hardens over time, and the date code on the sidewall shows when it was made. In New Zealand, tyres must meet the warrant of fitness tread requirement, and wet-weather grip is worth paying attention to on hilly, rainy roads. Regulars also check tyre pressure monthly.
