As the main role of tyres is to keep your car in contact with the road, they play a vital role in the safety and stopping power of your car.

Looking for a reliable service center to handle all your tyre and wheel related issues? Look no further than Barooga Service Centre! Our team of skilled mechanics are dedicated to providing honest and high-quality services that improve your driving experience and overall vehicle safety.

At Barooga Service Centre, we are independently owned and operated, and pride ourselves on our years of experience and knowledge.

All of our work is backed by the Repco Authorised Service Nationwide Warranty, so you can trust that your vehicle is in good hands.

While it's important to check your tyres regularly, it's equally important to have a professional take a look. At Barooga Service Centre, we can assess the internal condition of your tyres, as well as the outside surface, and ensure that they meet the correct methods of disassembly, repair, and reassembly. Our mechanics are well-versed in manufacturer and legal requirements, so you can trust that your vehicle is being serviced correctly.

Not only can we diagnose any issues with your tyres, but we can also assess your wheel alignment, tyre balance, and other areas of your car that may affect your tyres, such as brakes or suspension. This comprehensive approach ensures that your vehicle is safe and protected, and that your tyres last as long as possible.

Tyres naturally wear out over time, but hard braking, regular high-speed driving, and uneven road surfaces can quicken the process. The best indicator that your tyres are due for replacement is the depth of the tread. While the legal minimum tread depth varies, we recommend replacing your tyres when the tread depth approaches 1.6mm.

Tread depth is crucial for traction, friction, and water dissipation, which all play a vital role in maintaining grip and control while driving. If your tyres have less tread depth, you'll have less control in wet driving conditions. Tyres typically last between six to ten years, and proper maintenance can ensure that they last closer to the latter.

In addition to checking your tyre pressure regularly for better fuel economy, it's crucial for the safety and driveability of your vehicle. Incorrect tyre pressure can cause tyre damage and impact handling, so it's important to stay on top of it.

Checking your tyres regularly is also essential for identifying any bald or flat spots, tears, or foreign objects that may cause issues. But, having a professional tyre check can catch any issues that may be missed by the naked eye. At Barooga Service Centre, we are happy to perform regular checks and offer insights on any potential problems.

Tyres will suffer from wear and tear at varying rates. The front and rear tyres for example will wear at different rates as front tyres generally carry more weight than rear ones, meaning faster heat build-up and therefore increased wear. The tyres on either side of your car will also tend to wear at different rates to those on the opposite side.

Finally, rotating your tyres regularly can ensure that they wear evenly and in the same places. Our team can perform a range of tyre rotations, including cross, straight, 5-wheel, and four-wheel drive rotations.

Regular wheel alignment protects against premature or uneven tyre wear, increases the safety and handling of your vehicle, and improves ride performance and fuel efficiency. Similarly, wheel balancing minimises vibration through the wheels, reducing premature or uneven tyre wear. Either wheel service, or both, goes a long way in maximising the life of your tyres, enhancing safety and handling. Trust Barooga Service Centre with all your tyre and wheel needs.

No matter how well you care for your tyres there will come a time when the only option for maintaining safety, comfort and fuel economy of your car is to have the tyres replaced, such as when they have reached the minimum tread depth.
