Over in Duston, a customer told us he had been putting off new tyres for weeks, simply because he could not face the parking and the wait at a fitting centre. We met him on his own driveway, gauged a pair worn to the markers, and had matching rubber fitted and balanced before he left for work. That is the whole point of the van: it drives to your home in Kingsthorpe, your spot in Abington, or your workplace, and fits on the spot.
We carry rubber for cars, SUVs and 4x4s, so most common sizes are sorted in a single visit. The legal minimum is 1.6mm, but grip drops away well before then, which matters on the fast A45 and the M1 slip roads near town. We talk you through budget against premium honestly, balance every wheel, and leave you to get on with your day.
The A43 is not the sort of road you want to be jacking a car up on, and the parking around Far Cotton does not make it easier. So we do the moving instead. You pick the tyre, premium, mid-range or budget, and the hour that works; the van turns up with the stock and the balancer and fits it where the car is already parked. No appointment slot, no waiting room, and no last careful drive on something that is past it. Balance, valve and pressures are all part of the same visit and the old tyres go back in the van. We work right across Northamptonshire, days, nights and weekends.
New tyres in Northampton is part of our wider mobile tyre fitting across London and the home counties cover. We cover Far Cotton, Kingsthorpe, Abington and the rest of Northamptonshire on the same 24/7 basis. Not sure what you need? Call 07717 389637 or get a price for your tyre and we will confirm the tyre size, the price and the arrival time before a van sets off.
Northampton drivers cover plenty of miles on the A45, the A43 and the M1, and that steady fast-road use is harder on tyres than town driving alone. We bear that in mind when advising, often pointing regular motorway users towards longer-wearing or better wet-rated rubber, because tyres that are only just legal wear out quickly under that kind of mileage.
The new tyres situations Northampton drivers call us out to most:
Two fronts worn to the markers on an A45 commuter's car came off at the workplace, matched tyres on and both balanced.
A parent on the school run wanted safer wet tyres, so we supplied and fitted a pair on the driveway that morning.
An estate car had a long run ahead, so two fresh tyres went on before the driver set off for the day.
We also attend roadside new tyres on the main routes through Northampton, including M1 (J15-16), A45, A43 and more, day and night.
Yes. Homes, workplaces and roadside across Northampton, from Kingsthorpe to Wootton, wherever you are parked.
Once tread nears 1.6mm it is at the legal limit. We often advise changing sooner for grip on the A45 and the M1 slip roads.
Yes. Give us the size from the sidewall at booking and we arrive with suitable tyres to pick from.
Yes. We take your old tyres away and dispose of them responsibly as part of the fitting.
Card and contactless are taken on site, on a driveway in Kingsthorpe or at the kerb, wherever the car happens to be. You hear the tyre size and the price on the phone before anyone sets off, and the fitter confirms both against the tyre on your car before starting work anywhere in Northamptonshire.
We do. Northampton is one of the Northamptonshire towns our mobile fitters run to daily, alongside Wellingborough and Kettering. Whether the car is on a driveway in Wootton, in a workplace car park, or stopped on A45, it is the same call and the same 30 to 60 minute arrival target.
Yes. Northampton sits in a block we run continuously, taking in Wellingborough, Kettering and Milton Keynes too. We work to the postcode you give us rather than a town boundary, so a car stopped on the road between Wellingborough and Northampton is still one call, one fitter and the same 30 to 60 minute arrival window.

Absolutely fantastic service! I called Fast Tyre urgently needing a tyre replaced and Abdul arrived quickly and put my mind at ease.
I clipped the kerb when parking, damaging the wall of my tyre. I contacted Fast Tyre at 21:37 and by 23:40 I had a new tyre fitted. Excellent service and both boys were friendly and efficient.
5 star without a doubt! Called this morning with a complete flat tyre in N13 and within 30 minutes Abdul arrived and changed it. He also checked all 4 tyres and showed me one was completely bald and dangerous to drive.
