How we rate car tyre retailers

Our review compares car tyre retailers on customer satisfaction, so you can find out what other Aussies think about the compared brands before you go ahead with a purchase. Think of it as like asking hundreds of your closest mates which car tyre retailer they think is best!


Canstar Blue surveyed 789 Australians for their feedback on the car tyre retailer(s) they’ve purchased car tyres from in the last two years. Note: this includes both online and in-store purchases.

  • The outcomes reported in these ratings are measured via accredited research panels managed by Qualtrics.


Respondents rate their satisfaction with their car tyre retailer brand(s) from zero to ten, where zero is extremely dissatisfied and ten is extremely satisfied. Brand satisfaction was rated by respondents on the following criteria:
  • Overall satisfaction: measures consumer satisfaction with a car tyre retailer brand as an individual score NOT a combined total of all criteria.
  • Customer service: the car tyre retailer staff were readily available, helpful and could resolve issues effectively.
  • Quality of tyre on offer: the car tyre retailer stocked premium brands of tyres that were proven to be effective and long-lasting when used.
  • Value for money: the cost is reasonable for the quality and service of the car tyre retailer.
  • Range of tyres on offer: the car tyre retailer had a wide variety of tyres available (i.e. tyres suited for a number of vehicle types, etc.) for purchase.
  • Advice from staff: the car tyre retailer staff were able to effectively answer questions and provide suitable recommendations for car types and needs.
  • Range of other products & services available: the car tyre retailer additionally stocked a wide variety of car-related products (i.e. car cleaning packs, etc.) and offered additional car-related services (i.e. wheel alignments, check tyre pressure, etc.).

The winning brand is the one that receives the highest Overall satisfaction rating once all the scores from the Overall satisfaction criteria are combined and averaged.

  • Overall satisfaction is asked as a specific question and represents an individual measure, not a combined total of all criteria.
  • When we cannot determine a clear winner from the criteria for the Overall satisfaction rating, we will then look at the other criteria measured in the rating.
    • The brand with the highest number of five-star ratings within the supporting criteria will become the five-star recipient in overall satisfaction, and thus win the award. If a clear leader still cannot be determined from the supporting criteria, joint winners will be declared.

Brands must have received at least 30 responses to be included, so not all brands available in the market have been compared in this survey. The brands rated in this survey are listed below in order of best overall satisfaction.

  • Bob Jane T-Marts
