Online booking is paused. We are not taking new orders or phone enquiries at the moment. The earliest we can offer appointments again is Tuesday 26 May 2026. You can still browse tyres and prices on the site.
Tyres are an important part of your car, many people don’t realise that there are a range of tyres available and what the differences are within them apart from they see an increase in the price.
Budget tyres are still safe and road legal and they all conform to the regulations they have to. Budget tyres are normally manufactured by smaller and lesser known brands, who use materials that are not as high a quality as some of the premium brands. This does not mean however that they are not safe as they all comply to the standards they should and a lot of people find they are more affordable. They do not last as long as premium tyres and are lower in price. Budget tyres will meet all of the minimum requirements and are safe to use on the roads. Some people prefer to have budget tyres as they do not do much driving so therefore feel the budget tyres are ideal for them.
In some cases some vehicles come with a recommendation of what tyres to put on the car, this is at the owners discretion if they wish to follow this advice.
Why buy a budget tyre?
Most people who buy a budget tyre base their choice solely on the price and not much thought goes into it apart from that. Why spend more on a premium tyre when you can buy a budget tyre for a fraction of the price? What is the cheapest tyre you can get for your car?
Tyre performance: budget tyres

Woke up to a flat tyre, thought I could get the spare on and get it to a garage but turns out I cant and the tyre wont budge. Quick Google and there are Driveway tyres. I'm already thinking i'm going to have to wait all day, and it's going to cost more than the garage........ how wrong was I:
I call and speak to John, who said he's got a job on but he'll buzz me back in half hour.
-10 minutes later his colleague Mike is on the phone, asking what tyre I need and what my address is.
-1 hour later, Mike is on my driveway jacking my car up, armed with a new tyre just in case its needed.
-40 mins later, my tyre has been repaired with no new tyre needed. £25 charge. All whilst having a laugh about the other cars on my driveway.
£25 and 2 hours of time and the car is as good as new. Now would that have happened if I went to a garage? NO! I'd be sat waiting my turn, only to be told the tyre is not repairable and I need a new tyre at a cost (and they probably can't get it today!)
And of course, good service is not good service if it just happens once....... so when the Mrs needed a tyre after a blowout; we call Mike and see if he can help. Yet again, within the hour he's on the drive jacking up the car with a spare tyre ready to go. We were expecting to pay over the odds given the quick & convenient service, but the tyre worked out cheaper than going to the usual garage!
Fast working, honest, funny, great at keeping you informed of ETA's AND cost competitive: I would not fail to recommend John & Mike to anybody. They are the spirit of small Welsh business and should be your go to for tyres and tyre repairs!
All the best with the business guys, Kieran and Bianca!
