Tyre size and specification
Larger tyres, less common sizes, and higher load or speed ratings generally cost more than standard car sizes, simply because of what's involved in sourcing and fitting them.

What Affects The Cost Of Mobile Tyre Fitting
What goes into a quote, and why it depends on the job.
"How much will it cost?" is one of the first questions most people ask about mobile tyre fitting, and the honest answer is that it depends on several factors specific to the job. Here's what actually goes into a quote.
Tyre brand or product category
Premium, mid-range and budget tyres sit at different price points, and which category suits you depends on your vehicle, driving and budget — not a single right answer for everyone.
Vehicle type
Cars, vans, 4x4s and light commercials often need different tyre sizes and sometimes different equipment to fit them, which can affect the price.
Number of tyres
Whether you need a single tyre replaced or a full set fitted changes the overall cost, though not always in a simple multiple — ask for a quote covering exactly what you need.
Location and travel
Where you are affects how a callout is priced, since it factors in the technician's time and travel to reach you.
Scheduled versus urgent attendance
A booked appointment at a convenient time is generally priced differently from an urgent, out-of-hours emergency callout.
Puncture assessment versus replacement
A repair and a replacement involve different amounts of work, and which one applies to your tyre depends on an on-site assessment, and we'll confirm which is needed before starting.
Locking wheel nut complications
If a locking wheel nut key is lost, damaged or the nut is seized, that's additional work beyond a standard fitting, which is reflected in the price.
Any additional work
Anything beyond the original job that's found during the visit would be confirmed with you before we go ahead.
Getting an accurate quote
Because pricing depends on all of the above, the only accurate way to get a figure is to contact SFR Motors Ltd directly with your vehicle, tyre details and location. Call 0131 202 0289, message us on WhatsApp, or use the quote form and we'll confirm a price before any work starts.
