Responsive and Helpful – I bought a set of wheels for my daughter's car, the description was 100% accurate, heaps of tread and very no damage. The price including delivery was really good value and they were delivered interstate in two working days. This sort of service is everything you hope for and it was refreshing to be treated so well. We could not be happier.
easy website to use – great information and service on tyres and motor services as well as other car information Show reply
This is perfect! Can't live without it! – Great great great wonderful excellent economic growth and the only one who cares about the only one who cares about the only one who cares tyres are great mmm gimme more tyres!
Fantastic Experience – It was so simple to navigate. I got great deals within minutes and the provider was just as good as the app. I ended up getting a fantastic deal on my tyres alongside superb service! Show reply
Fitment for Collector Cars – Price matching was a plus.Location to home was a factor, researched my own tyres first Time frame to pickup could be improved. Staff numbers could be increased, manager was being stretched. Otherwise all good. I would recommend this business

“It’s a saga, but I’m ultimately a happy customer” – Plan A: 2X Pirelli Scorpion Zero (cross-over) 235/60 R18 V tyres to match existing tyres and spares. Glitch 1. Best online price an EBAY price of $475. Used AutoHero.com.au. Was contacted by Tuggeranong Tyrepower; I have used them before and it is a company I (currently) trust. Price offered, $375, accepted. Glitch 2. Tyres supplied were right… Read more · 2
Pirellis but wrong size. Tyrepower recommended Pirelli Scorpion Verde All-Season at $275 fitted. Glitch 3. I hesitated and did a LOT of online research. Plan B: Eventually accepted that offer; tyres are now fitted and balanced. ($550 for the two) As a bonus, got Tyrepower to do minor work on my trailer; new tyre; new wheel bearings, brake adjustments. Trailer now pulls more easily and brakes better as well. (non-Glitch 4: Online price is now $478, presumably because it’s a discontinued line)
* Non- AutoHero.com.au solution to Plan A would have cost about $1000+, * AutoHero.com.au (& Tuggeranong Tyrepower) Plan A solution would at worst have been $200 cheaper; * Plan B solution – different tyres and a third tyre and trailer repairs & maintenance – still ahead by at least $70 on a car plus additional trailer work.
Unexpectedly I was amazed at how successful this process turned out to be ! – I needed 4 new tyres, Rotor resurfacing & disc pads all round. As a younger man, I would performed all the labour myself, but age has changed that. So did the usual tiresome internet search for the best deal. Then came across TyreCompare.com and thought I would give it a go. Surprisingly the process was simple and got 4 quotes immediately. … Read more · 1
Super Price and same day service. Including free fitting, balancing & Wheel alignment. (plus a ride to the nearby coffee shop while I waited). The Rotor resurfacing process had a snag as the Machine broke an Arm, so the Company took the rotors to a Machine shop in Town to complete the resurfacing, only to get caught up in a major large Truck turnover accident involving a car and tons of metal spread across 3 lanes, causing 2 hrs delay getting back. No additional charges.. Fantastic! So impressed with the quality of service, Technical Information supplied and a free check & adjust service provided after 2 mths wow! Finally, The Jeep drives smooth & stops straight on its upgraded feet. Sure! I will be back again...
Under Appreciated Website - Honest Review – With the assistance of Tyre Compare i was able to find local tyre shops that i was unaware of that had better prices on the tyres i was looking for due to its shop locator feature which stacks all nearby shops that are competing with one another , to give you a better price. It is a must-have website to be used when trying to source what specific… Read more · 1
tyre you are after as tyre descriptions are accurate as well as the reviews for the most part and manufacturer deals are usually automatically applied which puts you in a better position as you know exactly what you are paying for.
At the end of the day if you find a cheaper advertised tyre on here , it provides a bargaining chip you can use when calling up your go-to tyre shop as you can ask if they can price-match for you.
I was not paid for this review , i took my own time out of the day to do this quick write up. i would suggest anyone not familiar with Tyre Compare to give it a go and see if it saves you money.

I asked Matt to carry out a pre-purchase vehicle inspection. He was prompt, thorough and very professional. The report was very detailed and covered every aspect of the vehicle. I have no hesitatin in recommending him for any mechanical work.
mechanical quotes – i used AutoHero for the first time and allthough i did not use the quotes i received i was happy with the fast responses and i won't hesitate to use them again
Shop around then come and compare – My mum's car has been on the road for many years but done little more than go to the shops and back. So the front tyres were getting on and then one got a nail. Talked to another shop and they were so pushy. So glad I found these guys. They would have just repaired but offered a good deal for 2 new and alignment. Whilst they had the car in the… Read more
shop they topped up the water in the windscreen washers and showed attention to detail, great service and offered excellent value.
Negative reviews
Marketed products different to those asked for – Query was to source price for Cooper tyres, but response did not provide any details about tyres and instead tried to sell me other products and services. I suspect a system error rather than intentional redirected marketing, but still a bad experience from my perspective. In addition, the link to provide 'bad' feedback to AutoHero did not work.… Read more
However, the link to provide "Good Feedback" brought me here. So they are also filtering where feedback goes which in itself is unethical.

Two attempts, no results – Tried them twice requesting tyres, putting in the exact specs and brand required. The first attempt resulted in quotes for servicing, but no tyres. The second attempt resulted in no quotes at all. Wasted effort all round, and not recommended.
Auto Useless – Tried to get a quote for a specific sized tyres and did not get a single quote. I then got an email from auto hero a week later asking for a review of the service. Still trying to work out what service.

I requested quotes for Tyres for my car. I did expect to receive more than one quote to give me something to compare. But I always say something is better than nothing. I was happy with the process, but chose to purchase tyres from another provider.
Buying these tyres was a very easy exercise,a quote was given by the boys at tyreplus at Botany,I rag to find whether they were in stock and how quickly they could be fitted.I reviewed the tyres and went ahead with the purchase.They were very efficient,no waiting.The ride home on the new tyres was very quiet, soft ride ,handled well ,hopefully they will give good mileage with the reputation that Michelin tyres have .Thanks Michael Pinkus Show details
I got auto out to replace my battery on my Mercedes, Matt was exceptional. He provided options and was very pleasant to deal with, and his prices were extremely reasonable. Highly recommend the team at Auto Hero
Very helpful with my query – Inquired about a particular model of tyre that was running low in stock in the country, very quick reply despite being 6 PM on a Sunday. Forwarded my details on to the vendor who also got back to me quickly. Got some somewhat off-topic/generic responses from various shops through the platform but it's to be expected with this kind of service. Show reply
Bad news – I have not received one response to my enquiry with regards to tyres. I have also not received a response to my several prior reviews indicating the fact that no tyre company has forwarded any detail. You are obviously not interested in me.
Compare prices for car repairs could not be simpler – Was excellent in quickly comparing prices from different workshops on some work I wanted to get done on the car. Selected a workshop and work was completed professionally.
Tyre quote – Many thanks for service regarding Tyres for my Motorhome I found this service. most helpful & I have contacted Bridgstone Tyre to thank Scott for his advice Show reply

Fastest car sales in the west – Very happy with the service from Connor and the quick loan and payment plan from your finance guru at john hughes wangara. I have my new used car with the windows tinted in 3days. Very impressive thanks
Despite claims from this website, tyre retailers are not fighting for my business – Requested help in finding tyres for my Mazda CX-30. Gave details but had no responses from tyre retailers in over 2 weeks.
Autohero are my hero's – Good all round visit from the price to the customer service it was easy to complement with the stars IV give it should have more stars that would get them too lol thanks for making it a no hastle and joy again to deal with it all
Great site helpful to get quotes fast – I uploaded my request for tyre prices through Auto Hero and within a few minutes I received two quotes and i made my purchase from the first caller.
Good, but a bit buggy maybe? – I am just using the free version, but often on my longer trips I will get a lower distraction and speed score. Despite driving the same as usual and I use adaptive cruise control so nor speeding. Also on 1 or 2 long trips it's not recorded properly and I've had to re-start the app. Apart from that it's been good. Keeps me accountable and an honest road user.
One stop car info site – I can not fault Auto hero, I have used Auto hero for quotes, advise and it's great to just scroll there is an abundance of information and reviews, Very happy.
Great experience – It was good doing business with you even i received no call from any trader for my tyre repair enquiry but i would love to be in line to win 500$ you offering for this survey
No service at all – Followed the process, was advised tyre shops would contact me but none did. Then I get sent an evaluation email: The dissatisfied option went nowhere but the happy one went here. Quelle surprise!
