Truck Tyre Inspection Shepshed — what the work involves
Tyre inspection should be scoped to the concern: tread wear, sidewall damage, pressure loss, valve condition or an incident involving the wheel. Some damage cannot be assessed from the outside and may require removal. A limited tyre check must not be presented as a complete vehicle roadworthiness inspection. Agree what will be inspected and how findings will be reported.
- Record the reported symptom and affected wheel
- Assess visible tread, sidewall and valve condition
- Identify whether removal or further investigation is needed
- Explain findings and proposed repair or replacement options

Your questions,
answered.
Can a visual inspection prove a tyre is safe internally?
No. A visual check has limits. Internal damage may require removal and examination, especially after running underinflated or an impact.
What should I report about uneven wear?
Note the wheel position, where the wear appears and whether the pattern has returned after previous replacement. Share photographs only when safe to obtain.
Can recurring pressure loss be investigated?
Describe how quickly pressure falls and any previous work. The cause could involve the tyre, valve, bead area or wheel and needs assessment.
Is this a full vehicle safety inspection?
No. The tyre inspection scope must be agreed. It does not replace the operator’s full maintenance or roadworthiness inspection.
Will I receive a replacement recommendation?
Where appropriate, findings should explain whether further assessment, repair or replacement is proposed. Agree the reporting format when booking.
Can a damaged tyre be left until the next planned visit?
Do not assume it is safe to continue. Explain the defect promptly and seek a competent assessment before deciding how the vehicle should be used.
What affects the cost of truck tyre inspection?
The number of tyres, inspection scope, travel and any removal needed affect the assessment charge. Repairs, replacements and wider mechanical investigation should be agreed separately.
