Under-inflated tyres waste fuel, wear out faster and handle badly in an emergency. Call into our Walsall depot any time during opening hours and we will check all four pressures plus the spare against your vehicle's recommended figures - completely free of charge.
Correct pressures save money at the pump and add weeks to your tyres' life. Make us part of your monthly routine - it takes five minutes and costs nothing.
Based in central Walsall, Marlows Tyre and Valeting looks after drivers across the Black Country. Choose your area to see local availability, or visit us at the depot - most jobs are finished within the hour.
Under-inflated tyres drag at the fuel pump, run hot at speed and wear the outer edges; over-inflated tyres lose grip and scrub the centre of the tread. Setting all four to the manufacturer figure is free here, and it improves economy, handling and tyre life in one go.
We scan the tyre pressure monitoring system, check every tyre against the correct figures and reset the warning when that is all it needs. If a wheel sensor is failing it shows up on the scan, and we will tell you before we replace anything.
It usually means one or more tyres are significantly under-inflated, though a failing sensor battery can also be to blame. We will diagnose it free at the depot.
Look on the sticker inside the driver door frame or fuel flap, or in your handbook - or just ask us and we will look them up.
