Newcastle Tyres
Tyres play a major role in how your car handles, brakes and responds on the road. At Autotek New South Wales in Newcastle, we supply, fit and balance tyres for all makes and models. Whether you need new tyres for everyday driving, heavy loads or long-distance trips, we’ll help you choose the right option for your vehicle and budget.
Our team inspects tread depth, wear patterns and tyre condition to ensure you’re getting the best possible performance. We also offer pressure checks, rotations and puncture repairs to help extend the life of your tyres. Good tyres mean better grip, shorter stopping distances and a smoother ride in all weather.

When to Replace Your Tyres
The condition of your tyres affects nearly every part of your driving experience. When tyres are properly fitted and maintained, you’ll notice better handling, improved braking and more confident cornering. Worn or underinflated tyres reduce traction, increase fuel use and make it harder to stay in control during wet or uneven conditions. That’s why tyre checks should be part of your regular car care.
We assess tread depth, inflation and sidewall condition to spot issues before they become unsafe. Even tyres that look fine at a glance can have hidden damage or uneven wear. Rotating and balancing tyres can also improve lifespan and ride comfort. Whether you’re replacing a full set or just need advice, we’ll walk you through the best options for how and where you drive. If your tyres feel off or it’s been a while since your last check, now’s a good time to come in.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know when my tyres need replacing?
The easiest way to check is by looking at the tread depth. If it’s below 1.6mm, the tyre is no longer road legal and should be replaced. You should also watch for cracks, bulges, uneven wear or vibrations while driving. If your tyres are more than five years old, even with good tread, they may be too aged to perform safely.
How often should I rotate my tyres?
Tyre rotation is usually recommended every 8,000 to 10,000 kilometres, or during regular servicing. Rotating helps promote even wear, especially if your vehicle is front- or rear-wheel drive. It can extend tyre life and improve stability. Keeping tyres evenly worn also helps with braking and reduces road noise over time.
What causes uneven tyre wear?
Uneven wear can be caused by poor alignment, incorrect tyre pressure, unbalanced wheels or worn suspension components. Driving with incorrect tyre pressure or neglecting regular rotation can also lead to rapid wear on one side of the tyre. Identifying the cause early helps prevent premature replacement and improves fuel efficiency.
