How can we help?

You photograph the side wall of your tyre and TyreSpot reads the markings on it — width, profile, rim size, speed rating and load index — and fills the search in for you. It reads what is printed on the tyre; it does not measure tread depth or assess wear.

Every field it returns is editable before you search, so correct anything that looks wrong. You can also skip the scan entirely and type your tyre size in by hand.

Yes, if you are in the United Kingdom. Enter your registration and TyreSpot returns available vehicle details. Registration data does not provide your tyre size, so verify it on the tyre sidewall, door-frame label, or handbook before booking.

It is printed on the side wall of the tyre, in the form 205/55R16 91V. It is often also on a sticker inside the driver's door frame or in your handbook.

Search with your tyre size, pick a garage from the list or the map, choose the tyres and how many you need, pick an appointment slot, read the garage's booking policy, then pay. You get a booking reference straight away.

The garage confirms it. Until then the booking shows as pending. If a garage declines, you are refunded in full.

Some garages offer same-day fitting and mark it on their listing. It is set by each garage individually — it is not available everywhere.

There is no in-app reschedule yet. Cancel the booking in line with the garage's policy and book the slot you want, or message the garage from the booking to ask them to move it.

Open the booking under My Bookings and choose Cancel. Before you confirm, TyreSpot shows you the garage's policy and exactly how much you will be refunded.

Each garage sets its own free-cancellation window. Cancel inside it and you are refunded in full. Cancel outside it and the garage's policy decides the amount. If the garage cancels, you always get a full refund.

Refunds go back to the card or wallet you paid with. Your bank usually shows them within five to ten working days.

Raise it with the garage first using the message thread on the booking — they carried out the work and are best placed to put it right. If you cannot resolve it, email hello@tyre-spot.com with your booking reference and we will step in.

By card, or with Apple Pay or Google Pay if your device supports it. Payments are processed by Stripe.

Your card details go straight to Stripe and never reach TyreSpot's servers. We store only the card brand and last four digits so you can recognise it.

In full when you book. Stripe processes the payment, and the garage's share becomes eligible for release only after the fitting is marked complete and its selected payout schedule is reached.

The tyres and the fitting, supplied by the independent garage you chose. TyreSpot does not sell subscriptions or any digital product.

Choose Forgot password on the sign-in screen. We email you a link to set a new one.

In the app, go to Profile, then Security & Privacy, then Export My Data. We email it to the address on your account.

Profile → Security & Privacy → Delete My Account, or read exactly what is deleted and what is kept on our account deletion page.

Only if you want garages sorted by distance from where you are. Refuse the permission and search by postcode instead — everything else works the same.

Nothing to join, nothing monthly and nothing per listing. TyreSpot takes 8% commission on completed bookings; you keep 92%.

Create a garage account in the app or on the website and complete onboarding: your business details, photos, Stripe payout setup and your booking policy. A TyreSpot reviewer approves the listing before it goes live.

You do. TyreSpot never sets, suggests or caps what you charge for tyres or fitting.

Payouts go to your connected Stripe account after a booking is marked complete, using the 7-day, Friday, or monthly release schedule you selected.
