Vans work hard, carry heavy loads and cover serious mileage - so they deserve properly load-rated tyres, not scaled-down car rubber. We supply and fit commercial tyres for Transits, Vitos, Crafters, Sprinters, Transporters and a huge range of daily-driver vans, all balanced and torqued to specification at our Walsall depot or via the mobile fitting service.
Commercial tyres face tougher abuse than passenger car rubber - kerbs, overloading and long motorway stints all take their toll. We inspect every van tyre thoroughly at fitting and set pressures for what you actually carry, not the empty unladen figure.
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.
Van tyres are built with stiffer casings, heavier load ratings and tougher tread compounds because they carry weight, hit kerbs and cover motorway miles. Fitting a car-marked tyre to a laden van is unsafe - the load index you need is stamped on the sidewall and we match it exactly.
We set pressures for what you actually carry - the loaded figures on the driver door or B-pillar, not the unladen ones. With a quick look at your plates and tyres we can spot at a glance whether a set is wrong, before an MOT or a weighbridge does.
Prices vary with load index and rim size, but most van tyres run from around £55 fitted. Call with your registration or current tyre size for an exact quote.
