- Convenience. You can make a TyreCare clam in any of our centres nationwide meaning that you’re never far away should you need assistance.
- One fixed fee. TyreCare insurance is a solution to protect your tyres. Prices start from just £5.99* per tyre and is based on the price you pay for the tyre at the point of purchase.
What Damage Is Covered?
- Accidental damage - sudden and unexpected deflation or other damage to the tyre or valve, which requires the immediate repair or replacement.
- Malicious damage - deflation or damage to the insured tyre or valve caused intentionally by a third party, which requires a repair or a replacement before normal use can be resumed. In order to claim against malicious damage, you must report the incident to the Police and provide a crime reference number at the time of making a claim.
- Your vehicle will be covered in the UK, Isle of Man and Channel Islands.
What Isn't Covered?
- Tyres below the UK legal limit of tread depth or any tyres that are not dot marked or where there has been an attempt to remove the serial number or other identifying marks from the tyre.
- Any malicious damage not accompanied by a valid and substantiated crime reference number, including fire and theft.
- Private hire, driving tuition vehicles (including any other professional instruction), taxis and chauffeuring vehicles used for hire or reward.
- Vehicles used for competition or any competitive events. Off-road use, motor rallying, motor racing, pace-making, speed or duration tests (or any practice for these events) or track day events, regardless of whether they are timed or untimed.
- Commercial and agricultural vehicles.
