About Proper Tyres

A proper local tyre garage, run by people who mean it

Based on Riley Close in Daventry, we've spent years helping local drivers stay safe on the road, without the upsell. We're not a national chain following a script — we're a small, independent garage that cares about getting it right, whether that means fitting your tyres here on-site or coming straight to your door anywhere across Daventry and Northamptonshire.

Our story

Started local, stayed local

Proper Tyres started with a simple idea: Daventry drivers deserve a tyre garage that tells them the truth. No pushing tyres they don't need, no confusing jargon, just honest advice and a proper job done properly.

What began as a small team fitting tyres out of a single bay on Riley Close has grown into a garage trusted by drivers right across Northamptonshire, stocking everything from trusted budget brands to premium tyres for motorway miles. Along the way, we added mobile fitting too, because we realised the honest advice and proper job we were known for shouldn't stop at our own front door — it should reach drivers wherever they are, at home, at work, or stuck on the roadside.

We're still independent, still local, and still run by the same people who believe a good tyre garage is built on trust, not targets.
