There is a fortnight every autumn when half the country buys tyres at once. The first cold, wet morning arrives, everybody notices the noise from the front of the car in the same week, and the stock that was sitting in a warehouse in September is suddenly on back order.
In that fortnight you take what is available. Six weeks earlier you take what you chose, and that is most of the argument for planning a set instead of reacting to one. The tyre is the only part of the car touching the road, and the gap between a considered choice and whatever was left on the shelf gets measured in stopping distance, on the one wet morning it turns out to matter.
Nothing about that requires a garage visit. We come to the house or the workplace with the tyres you picked, in the size off your sidewall, balanced on the wheel before they go back on the car. All major brands can be ordered in, from value lines up to Michelin, Pirelli or Continental, and everything we fit carries a two-year warranty.
Most people put new tyres off because of the afternoon it costs them, not because of the tyre. A run on Cheam Road and an hour at a counter is a morning gone. Tell us the size and a time that suits and the van comes to you in SM1, which means a tyre already down to the wear bars never has to make one more journey to get replaced. Nothing is towed out of Benhilton or Belmont; the work finishes there. Pressures set before we leave Belmont, and the same near Rosehill.

Plenty of cars around Sutton do a few thousand miles a year and never give anybody a reason to look at the tyres until something forces it. Short hops to the High Street, a run over to Cheam, then a fortnight parked outside the house. Tread barely moves on a pattern like that, so the prompt never comes and the set finally gets bought in a hurry.
Two fronts down to about three millimetres in August, with no urgency attached to it. The owner picked a pattern, we ordered it, and the pair went on a driveway a fortnight later at a time that suited the household rather than the weather.
A family in Carshalton with a school run and a long drive north each winter wanted one tyre that would do both jobs. Fitted in October, on the drive, while it was still mild enough to be a choice rather than a rescue.
A low mileage car near Sutton High Street replacing tyres as they aged rather than as they wore, always in pairs across an axle. Spread over a few years it never arrives as one large bill, and nothing is ever the odd one out.
Around three millimetres is a sensible point to decide, not 1.6. Wet grip falls away quickly over that last stretch of tread, and the legal minimum is a line you get prosecuted under rather than a level anybody would recommend driving on.
For most drivers in this part of London an all season tyre is the honest answer. Full winters are better on ice and worse for the rest of the year, and we do not get enough of the former to justify the latter.
Yes, and that is how most planned sets go. You choose, we get the right tyres in, and we come to you at an arranged time at home or at work. It is also the only reliable way to get an unusual size.
Slowly. Rubber ages from the day it is moulded, which is why four digits in an oval on the sidewall give the week and the year. A tyre a year or two old and stored properly is new in every sense that matters.
