Tyres in Hebburn, Tyne and Wear

New tyres supplied, fitted and balanced at Banks Of The Tyne Motor Company in Hebburn. Budget, mid-range and premium options for cars, SUVs and vans, plus puncture repairs and tyre pressure sensor checks.

Tyres for Every Car & Budget

Your tyres are the only part of your car that touches the road. Worn or damaged tyres increase stopping distances, especially in the wet, and the legal minimum tread depth is 1.6mm across the central three-quarters of the tyre. Illegal tyres can mean a fine of up to £2,500 and three penalty points each.

Our Hebburn team will check your tread and tyre condition, recommend options to suit how you drive and your budget, and fit and balance them with new valves. If a puncture is repairable to British Standard, we'll repair it rather than sell you a new tyre.

The Benefits

Safer in the Wet

Good tread clears water and shortens stopping distances.

Options for Every Budget

Budget, mid-range and premium brands available.

Balanced & Fitted Right

Precision balancing for a smooth, vibration-free drive.

Repairs Where Possible

Punctures repaired to British Standard when safe to do so.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the legal tread depth in the UK?

1.6mm across the central three-quarters of the tread, all the way around. Many experts recommend replacing at 3mm, as wet braking performance drops off noticeably below that.

Can my puncture be repaired?

Usually, if the damage is in the central area of the tread, is small enough and the tyre hasn't been driven on flat. Sidewall damage can't be repaired safely.

Should I replace tyres in pairs?

We recommend replacing tyres in axle pairs so grip and handling stay balanced. Four-wheel-drive vehicles may need all four replaced together.

Our Reviews

Conscientious customer service, we bought a great car at a good price. Wish it was the Aston!
— Saira & Will Aspinall
**Exceptional service and a genuinely honest garage!** I contacted the company after seeing their Volkswagen Caddy Maxi Life advertised on AutoTrader on Wednesday evening, after hours. I had several in-depth questions and sent them over, and first thing Thursday morning Andrew contacted me and answered every question thoroughly. We then spoke on the phone, and Andrew went the extra mile by sending me a video of the vehicle. My mum, husband and I then made the three-hour journey from the East Midlands to Hebburn to view the car. We were absolutely delighted with the vehicle and were so happy with everything that we drove it home that day. Three weeks on, we are still extremely happy with our decision and absolutely love the Caddy. A huge thank you to **Andrew** for his exceptional customer service, professionalism

I can’t recommend Banks of the Tyne Motor Company highly enough. We’ve had two cars repaired here after they were damaged and recently bought my son’s car from them. Every experience we’ve had has been excellent. Andrew and Jamie were fantastic — really friendly, helpful and kept us updated throughout. My son loves his new car and we’ve had no problems at all. Great service and a lovely experience from start to finish. Would definitely use them again!

I bought a lovely car from Andrew(The new manager). It was spotlessly clean inside and out and a really good price. Very friendly and professional. Definitely recommend 👌.

Bought a citreon c3 from Banks of Tyne a couple of months ago. Due to an issue with the warrenty company I really needed the timing belt changed. The guys were more than happy to oblige and even carried out an oil and filter change too - with no charge 👍 About a couple of weeks later I experienced another teething issue with the car. But again, Stephen, Owen and the team really stepped up and again carried out all the work - even changing one of my brake lights - without charge. I honestly could not recommend these guys enough, its a real rarity to find a dealership / mechanics that are friendly, care and make you feel valued as a customer. They will be getting all mine and my familys work going forward - even though we all live on the other side of the water 🤣

Great Customer service from start to finish. Identified the issues with the car quickly (I had already been told by the AA what the issues were). Repaired it and kept me updated throughout. Quick and efficient service and a very fair price. Will definitely be using again!!
— Steven Richardson
I needed a garage that wasn’t going to rob me blind for repairs. I brought my car here for MOT repairs and I cannot fault this place. Stephen the MOT tester was really professional - gave me a price of the work (cheapest I have been quoted by far). I was able to watch him doing the work from the MOT office and was even given a lovely hot cuppa aswell 😉. When the work was completed he took it on a road test just to double check all was well. All was done in about 1hr. Absolutely outstanding business - WILL DEFO be recommending and using this place again. Thank you so much.
