Frequently asked questions
How do I choose between tyre shops in Marathon?
Compare two or three. Give each the size printed on your tyre's sidewall and ask for a price that includes fitting, balancing, valves and disposal of the old tyres, so you compare like with like. A business that is owner verified on Mechanics Directory has confirmed it runs the listing.
How much do new tyres cost in Marathon?
It depends on the size, the brand and the type of tyre (road, all-terrain or performance). Ask two or three local tyre shops for a fitted price for the same size and brand, and check whether balancing, valves, a wheel alignment and disposal of the old tyres are included.
Do tyre shops need to be licensed?
Some tyre and wheel work may come under a state's repairer licensing, and the rules differ by state. Ask the business which licence, if any, covers the job. In Queensland, ask the business which qualifications and licences apply to your job. Listings marked "Credentials listed" show a licence, accreditation or membership on the business's profile. We don't check it, so confirm it with whoever issued it.
Do I need a wheel alignment with new tyres?
Not always, but it's worth one if the car pulls to one side, the steering wheel is off-centre or the old tyres wore unevenly. Many tyre shops do alignments while the car is in.
What does "serves this area" mean?
Some businesses are based in a nearby suburb but cover this area, including mobile mechanics and towing services that come to you. On suburb pages we list businesses based in the suburb first, then the ones that say they serve it.
How do free quotes work?
Tell us about the job once. We match your request with up to 3 tyre shops near you. A business on a paid plan here gets it with your name and contact details and can contact you directly. A business on the free plan sees the job and your suburb but not your details, so it can't contact you unless it upgrades. A business that hasn't claimed its listing sees your request only once it claims. After you send, we tell you which applies to each business. It's free and there's no obligation.
