Book a tyre replacement

Yes. You can book either a branch or mobile appointment online.

Arval cares about your safety, so we fit premium tyres to our fleet vehicles and recommend a 2mm change policy. This provides an adequate buffer to ensure tyres don't wear beyond the legal limit.

Our partners are committed to maintaining stock levels for servicing all Arval customers wherever possible. This means they try to ensure each centre stocks a good selection of tyres of the right size for the local population. Our partners all follow Arval’s brand policy. This means they try, wherever possible, to fit Michelin tyres (our preferred choice is CrossClimate). If Michelin tyres are not available, an alternative premium brand such as Continental, Goodyear or Dunlop will be fitted. If you visit a partner site without an appointment, there is a chance that they may not have the tyres you need in stock - so we always recommend booking in advance.

If you have a tyre issue in the Republic of Ireland or Europe and you’ve already called us to arrange cover abroad, you can call Arval Assist. You’re legally required to tell us you’re taking an Arval car outside the UK, when you do so, we set up European breakdown cover for you. Please note that tyre replacements abroad may be subject to a charge. For more information about driving abroad, click here.

No problem. Dealers are able to arrange replacement tyres for you via our network of partners.

Our partners will look to fit other premium tyres from the Arval brand range – Michelin, Continental, or Goodyear Dunlop. This may result in different brands being used in different wheel positions on occasions, which is mechanically acceptable. We work with manufacturer guidance, where brand matching applies in axle pairs - the same applies to Michelin CrossClimate tyres.

Michelin CrossClimate tyres are market leaders for longevity, durability and safety. They also avoid the need to change seasonal tyres as the weather adapts. Michelin CrossClimate is the first standard tyre to achieve ‘3 Peaks’ accreditation as a winter tyre, which means their year-round performance is particularly suited to UK weather. In addition, Michelin CrossClimate tyres are specifically designed to meet the varying requirements of cars, vans and 4x4 vehicles, and they are available in over 120 different sizes. Please speak to your account manager for more information.

Michelin makes CrossClimate tyres in over 120 different sizes, so they are suited to most vehicles. If they’re not yet available in the size required for your vehicle, our partners will fit other premium tyres from the Arval brand range (Michelin, Continental, and Goodyear Dunlop). See which CrossClimate tyres are made by Michelin.

Michelin recommends changing in pairs on the same axle. As the CrossClimate behaves like a winter tyre in winter, you might notice the difference in improved handling and grip in colder conditions. There is no need to change all four tyres simultaneously if only the tyres on one axle need replacing.  

CrossClimate tyres do not have run-flat capability, and Michelin’s advice is that CrossClimates are not compatible with run-flats, even if they are on different axles. If you have run-flat tyres, our partners will replace them when worn or punctured, unless you wish to replace all four tyres with CrossClimate. Our partners will request authority from Arval, as this may incur additional costs depending on the remaining tread of the tyre.

Our partners will fit a range of premium brands on behalf of Arval. Michelin CrossClimate is the ideal choice, but other Michelin, Continental, and Goodyear Dunlop tyres may also be fitted. Speak to the centre manager as soon as possible if you do not want CrossClimate tyres.

If you’re a company vehicle driver and your employer has a winter tyre programme with Arval, we will talk to them about how to manage the winter tyre stock they have paid for. They may wish to continue using the existing tyres to the end of their lives or allow a changeover to CrossClimate. Someone will contact you if you need to take action.

EV-specific tyres are designed to maximise performance and get the best range from the vehicle, with improved rolling resistance and reduced road noise.

There are no legal requirements to fit a specific tyre to an EV or hybrid vehicle, as long as it’s the correct size, load and speed rating. Our partners will try to match the brand and pattern of the tyre. If unavailable, they will try to source an alternative brand with the same characteristics (e.g. acoustic tyre). Fitting a standard tyre will be a last resort. Our partners will look at the best available in terms of rolling resistance and road noise to try to match the characteristics of the previous tyre as closely as possible, to maximise battery range and minimise road noise.

The short answer is no. Some vehicles will have a specific tyre designed to get the greatest performance from the vehicle. However, it is safe and legal to choose different tyres (e.g. Primacy 4s, CrossClimates or winter tyres). Where possible, the original tyres should be replaced with the same type. If this isn’t possible, the correct size and load ratings must be met, and tyres need to be changed in sets or a minimum of pairs.

Yes, our partners can source EV tyres. With EV and Hybrid vehicles becoming more common across the UK, our partners continually update their stock policies to deliver the best possible service. By booking your fitting appointment in advance, our partners can source the tyres you need.

No, Tesla-specific tyres are not essential for Tesla vehicles - others can be fitted.

Yes, specialist jacking pads are needed because of the location of the battery beneath the vehicle. All our partners have these available.
