There is a practical consideration when buying tyres that has nothing to do with grip: how easy the size is to get hold of. Common sizes are stocked everywhere, ride on every mobile van and can be replaced the same day almost anywhere in the country. Unusual sizes, and there are a lot of them on higher specification cars, are ordered in. That is fine when you are planning a change. It is a great deal less fine at eleven at night on the A40 with one tyre destroyed.
Which is why, if your car offers more than one approved fitment, it is worth asking which of them is the widely stocked one before you commit to a set. Sometimes the answer is that the alternative size is common, cheaper and available everywhere, and the only thing you give up is a millimetre of sidewall you would never notice. Sometimes there is no alternative and the honest answer is to know that and plan accordingly. We will tell you which situation your car is in when you ring rather than after we arrive without the tyre.
Four seasons is a compromise, summer rubber is a commitment and winter tyres are a plan. Which of the three suits depends on where the car actually goes, and a car that spends its life on the M40 near junction 1 has different needs from one doing two miles at a time. Whether it is Camp Road in rush hour or the A40 at midnight, we answer. On the A413, day or night, Chalfont Heights included, arrival across Buckinghamshire runs 30 to 60 minutes.

Gerrards Cross has a high proportion of cars on larger and less common fitments, which is not a problem until something needs replacing at short notice on the A40 or the M40 at junction 1. Knowing whether your size is a stocked one is worth a question when you buy rather than a discovery when you break down. We will tell you straight either way.
Fine on a planned change and a real problem at midnight. It is worth knowing which category your car falls into before you need to find out the hard way.
Plenty of cars have more than one. If one of them is a common size and the other is not, that is a genuine argument that has nothing to do with the tyre itself.
We check the size against van stock when you ring, so you get a straight answer about availability rather than a fitter arriving without the tyre.
Considerably. Common sizes ride on the van and can be fitted the same day. Unusual ones are ordered in, which matters most when you least want to wait.
Sometimes, if your car has more than one approved fitment. The overall rolling diameter has to stay within tolerance and we check rather than guess.
Yes, when you ring. It is better to know before we set off than after, and it occasionally changes what you choose to buy.
Yes, across Packhorse Road, Station Road, Chalfont Heights, Camp Road, Bull Lane and Austenwood, balanced and torqued at the vehicle.
