Te Rapa Tyre Centre

🔩 Builders’ best friends… but tyres’ worst enemies! 🛞

Here’s just a small assortment of the nails, screws, bolts and other bits of metal we’ve pulled out of tyres causing punctures. Some of them make us wonder how they managed to get in there! 🤣

If your tyre keeps losing pressure, don’t just keep topping it up. Driving on it underinflated can turn a repairable puncture into a damaged tyre that needs replacing.

Bring it in and we’ll remove the tyre, inspect it properly and let you know whether it can be safely repaired.

⚠️ PUBLIC SAFETY NOTICE — BRIDGESTONE DURAVIS TYRE RECALL ⚠️

Earlier this year, Bridgestone New Zealand recalled certain 16-inch Duravis R660 ECO commercial tyres. The recall has now been expanded to include an additional 17-inch size.

Please check for either of these tyres:

🔴 215/65R16C 109/107T
DOT production dates: 4323–4425
Made in Turkey

🔴 215/60R17C 109/107T
DOT production dates: 1524–4925

These tyres may be more susceptible to cuts in rough or wet conditions. In some cases, moisture can enter the tyre and cause internal corrosion, bulging, tread deformation, tread separation or sudden air loss.

The 16-inch tyre was supplied as original equipment for some 2024–2025 Ford Transit Custom and Tourneo Custom vehicles and was also sold as a replacement tyre.

If your van or commercial vehicle uses either of these sizes, call into Te Rapa Tyre Centre. We can check the tyre model and DOT numbers for you at no charge and, if your tyres are affected, help organise their replacement through Bridgestone.

This sweet ride Dodge Challenger was in with us for a wheel alignment. 😎

Whether it’s something a little special like this, your everyday runabout, SUV, van or work vehicle, a correct wheel alignment helps:

🛞 Reduce uneven tyre wear
🛞 Get the most life from your tyres
🛞 Improve steering and handling
🛞 Keep your vehicle tracking straight

If your steering wheel isn’t sitting straight, the vehicle is pulling to one side, or you’re noticing uneven tyre wear, it could be time to get the alignment checked.
