For the uninitiated, knowing when to replace car tires and where best to buy new ones can be tricky. Plus, tire shops are almost everywhere, so how do you pick the right one?
If you’re in Australia, the entire tire shopping experience shouldn’t be such a chore anymore. TyreCompare, Australia’s newest tire comparison site, promises to eliminate the hassle of choosing and buying tires, and getting them fitted into your vehicle.

The Inspiration behind the Business
Matt Banks, founder of TyreCompare, was inspired to set up the business when, as a customer, he had a hard time shopping for tires for his truck. His tire shopping experience was—to say the least—expensive, time-consuming, and complicated than it had to be.
Phoning and visiting a lot of retailers, and checking on the internet only to find store locators made him realize that there might be a better way to make the process easier and more convenient. And from there, TyreCompare was born. Banks spent significant time convincing and partnering with hundreds of tire retailers and stores in Australia to bring consumers the best deals on tires.
TyreCompare officially launched in 2015, but it was during the year that they welcomed a significant number of dealers and retailers, as well as users. Part of the platform’s growing success can be attributed to its ability to let consumers make an informed decision and compare efficiently, instead of being influenced by high-pressure tire salesmen operating at commissions.
TyreCompare—Getting You Back on the Road Fast
Not everyone has the time or the knowledge to shop for tires in the quickest, most hassle-free manner, which is why TyreCompare can be a great lifesaver. You simply input your details, and all the relevant information you need to get back on the road is provided. Plus, the service is free to use so what more could you ask for?
