Nicholls Auto Centre

Tyres play a crucial role in keeping your vehicle safe, stable and performing at its best, and at Nicholls Auto Centre in Richmond we offer a complete range of tyre services for all makes and models. Located at 176 Queen Street, our trusted automotive workshop is a go-to destination for drivers across Richmond, Nelson, Appleby and Hope who want reliable tyre advice, quality products and expert fitting. Whether you’re after everyday commuter tyres, premium options for long-distance travel or durable tyres for your ute or SUV, we’re here to help you choose the right fit for your vehicle.

Choosing the correct tyre makes a significant difference to handling, braking, comfort and fuel efficiency. Our team offers honest, practical recommendations based on how and where you drive. We supply a broad selection of tyre brands and sizes to suit different driving styles and budgets, and we take the time to ensure each tyre is fitted and balanced properly. From standard passenger tyres to high-performance, 4x4 and light commercial options, we’ll match you with the best tyre for long-term safety and performance.

Properly aligned wheels are essential for extending tyre life and maintaining a smooth, safe driving experience. That’s why we provide professional wheel alignment services using modern equipment to correct steering pull, uneven wear and vibrations. If you’ve noticed your tyres wearing out faster than normal, your steering feeling off-centre or your vehicle pulling to one side, a wheel alignment could save you money and improve overall handling. We recommend aligning wheels whenever new tyres are fitted, or if your vehicle has hit a pothole or kerb.

Along with new tyres and alignments, we also carry out puncture repairs, tyre rotations and pressure checks to help you get the most out of your tyres. Even a slow leak can affect vehicle safety, braking distance and fuel use, so our technicians will assess the damage and repair the tyre where safe to do so. Our workshop is equipped to handle fast turnarounds so you can get back on the road safely and without delay.

At Nicholls Auto Centre, we pride ourselves on offering friendly service, fair advice and workmanship you can trust. Whether you need one replacement tyre, a full set, or you simply want your current tyres checked, our Richmond team is here to make the process easy.
