Frequently Asked Questions
How often should mobility scooter tyres be replaced?
Many tyres last one to three years, depending on how far the scooter travels and what type of surfaces it’s used on. Look for signs like worn tread, cracks, flat spots, or reduced stability. Pneumatic tyres usually wear faster while solid tyres last longer, but can harden over time. Regular checks help decide when a replacement is needed.
What tyre pressure should mobility scooter tyres run at?
Recommended pressure is usually listed on the tyre or in the scooter manual. Low pressure makes the scooter harder to control and increases the risk of punctures, while high pressure can make the ride rough and reduce grip. Checking the pressure once a week helps keep the scooter feeling smooth and predictable.
Why does my mobility scooter feel unstable on uneven ground?
Instability often comes from worn tread or incorrect pressure. Low pressure makes tyres squishier and harder to control, while overinflation reduces contact with the ground. Uneven or rough surfaces also highlight worn tyres more quickly. Keeping tread healthy and pressure correct helps maintain steady, safe handling.
Reliable Support for Safer Travels
Well-chosen tyres can improve how a mobility scooter grips the ground, handles slopes and absorbs bumps from rough footpaths or car parks. Tyre type, tread pattern and pressure all play a role in overall performance, especially when a scooter is used daily or carries varying loads.
Our team examines factors such as wear patterns and the scooter's travel distance to match the right tyre to the rider’s specific needs. Fitting, repairing and checking tyres regularly helps maintain stability, reduces puncture risks and supports smoother, more predictable control in a wide range of conditions.
