Always a warm welcome from the Team at Protech! Really helped me with an issue with my car last week, all sorted immediately- barely had time to finish my coffee! Thank you so much x
When your tyres are in good condition, it will result in your vehicle being safely connected to the road surface. So the importance of maintaining them cannot be overstated.
If you neglect your car tyres, it can have a negative impact on the performance and safety of your vehicle. During wear, tyre tread depth decreases, reducing the tyre’s ability to grip road surfaces. As a result, traction can be reduced, braking distances can be longer, and skidding and hydroplaning are more likely. In addition, worn tyres are more likely to develop punctures or blowouts.
With our extensive knowledge of all vehicle brands, Protech Automotive is equipped to assess the safety of your tyres and replace them if necessary.
Contact Protech Automotive today for a comprehensive tyre inspection.
What Is the Minimum Tread Requirement? And How Do I Measure This?
For tyres in the UK, the minimum tread depth is 1.6mm. In addition to a gauge, you can also use a 20p coin to measure your tyre tread depth.
You can do this by putting the 20p in the area of your tyre with the least tread. If the coin’s outer rim can be seen, your tyres must be checked immediately.
Not only is it highly dangerous to drive with insufficient tread depth, it is also illegal.
You can avoid fines and accidents by scheduling a tyres Newport inspection at Protech Automotive today.

My Wheel Has Been Damaged. Would You Be Able to Fix It?
At Protech Automotive, we have qualified technicians who can repair most wheels. However, a new wheel is occasionally necessary if the damage is too severe to be repaired.
We will discuss the alternatives with you if we are unable to repair your wheel. Keeping you safe on the road is our top priority.
Contact our technicians today to arrange your car tyres Newport assessment.
How to Check the Tyre Pressure
In order to determine the tyre pressure required for your vehicle, look inside the driver’s door or on the fuel cap for the recommended pressure.
Be sure to remove all dust caps from your vehicle. Then, the pressure gauge should be placed on the tyre valve to display the current tyre pressure.
Check the readings against your vehicle’s recommended pressure levels. When your vehicle’s tyres require inflation, adjust the pressure on the air machine and start inflating them.

What Is Wheel Alignment? And Why Do I Need It?
The wheel alignment process involves adjusting the wheels so they’re parallel to each other and correctly on the ground. This ensures smooth driving, tyres wear evenly, fuel efficiency is improved, and control and stability are improved.

Excellent customer care. I find it hard to believe how bad others experiences have been given in my 3 years I've only had 1 minor bump and it wasn't their fault at all. All got resolved, I think alot of things can be resolved with a rational conversation and not throwing slurs on reviews.
