Our range

Tyres for every vehicle, every budget

Whatever you drive, we've probably got a tyre for it in stock — and if we haven't, we can usually get it in the same day.

Car tyres

Reliable, everyday tyres fitted properly for your daily runabout, from small city cars to family saloons. We’ll match the right tyre to how you actually drive.

Performance tyres

Grippier compounds and stiffer sidewalls for drivers who want sharper handling and confident braking, without compromising on safety.

4x4 & SUV tyres

Tougher tyres built for bigger, heavier vehicles and mixed driving, whether you’re mostly on the motorway or occasionally off it.

Winter tyres

Better grip and noticeably shorter stopping distances when it turns cold, wet or icy, so you stay safer through the darker months.

Van tyres

Load-rated tyres that keep your van on the road, whatever the job, with options built to handle daily mileage and heavier loads.

Budget tyres

Trusted budget brands that keep you safe and legal without the premium price tag, ideal if you’re watching the running costs.

About Proper Tyres

Your local, independent tyre garage

We're an independent tyre garage based on Riley Close in Daventry, and we've spent years helping local drivers get back on the road safely, without the upsell. Being independent means we're not tied to one supplier or one way of doing things — we choose what actually works and tell you straight if a cheaper option will do the job just as well.

Whether you're after a trusted budget brand or a premium tyre for your motorway miles, we'll give you honest advice, fit it properly, and have you on your way — usually the same day. And we don't just cover Daventry — we regularly help drivers across Rugby, Towcester, and Northampton too, whether that's in our garage or with mobile fitting at your home or workplace.

We're proud to be the kind of garage where you're a person, not a number — and where the advice you get is the same whether you're buying your first set of tyres or your fiftieth.
