Why buying tyres online is a good idea

Online tyre buying is definitely growing in popularity, but is buying tyres online a good idea? Tyres & Accessories heard from one independent tyre retailer that thinks it is (Photo: Andrea Piacquadio)

Last year GfK analysts reported that online tyre buying has increased as a consequence of recent lockdowns. Based on the same sources, it has been further predicted that more tyres will be sold online and that the budget tyre sector will benefit the most from the prevailing conditions. In addition, Statista research into online shopping behaviour in the UK shows that British buying habits have changed as a consequence of the pandemic. By February 2021, approximately 75 per cent of UK shoppers said that they have been shopping more online. And a report published in May 2021 found that over 93 per cent of consumers had made a purchase online in the last 30 days.

So, we know it is growing in popularity, but is buying tyres online a good idea? Since offline shopping has decreased over the course of time, and as more and more people are turning towards online shopping, Tyres & Accessories took note when retailer Dartford Tyres shares its reasons in favour of buying tyres online.

Choice, convenience and affordability

The first and the most exciting reason is choice. Or, in other words, you get to choose from a wider range than you could otherwise. We all like to look at a list of options and then make our decision after knowing all our choices and it’s no different when it comes to tyres. Buying tyres online means motorists can benefit from looking at a diverse range of tyres and then select the ones that are the most suitable for their vehicles.

Convenience is the second reason why online tyre buying is becoming a trend. From the comfort of your chair, you can book tyres that are best suited for your car and then have them delivered at your home within just a few clicks. Site navigations and online booking systems have been made so easy by tyre companies that lack of technical know-how now does not stand in the way of buying tyres online.

An affordable price is the third reason why online tyre buying is a good idea. While thousands of companies compete with each other consumers stand to gain. Pre-sale online research means the average motorist can compare tyre prices and select the ones that best suit their budget and driving style.

As easy as it all sounds, it’s also important to buy good quality and genuine tyres as cowboy online retailers have been known to lead consumers into buying sub-standard products, copies and even expired tyres. Therefore, reputable operations are the way forward and – of course – you can buy tyres online at Dartford Tyres where they offer “a complete range of car tyres at affordable prices”. You can also call them and speak to their expert if you need any technical assistance or product guidance.
