Tyres and Batteries
Forbury Service Centre in Dunedin stocks a wide selection of tyres and batteries to suit your needs.
Bridgestone and Firestone tyres
It’s easy to lose sight of the simple truth that tyres are one of the most critical safety features of any vehicle. Buying the right tyre can be tough, as they're not all made equal. Cheap tyres can be appealing, but they generally don't perform as well as more expensive ones. A top-quality tyre will give you better performance in critical safety areas, such as wet weather braking and road holding. The durable tyres at Forbury Service Centre have been crafted to meet the latest comfort, style and safety.

Century Batteries
Don’t wait until it’s too late and you are caught out on the side of the road with a dead battery.
Here are some signs that could mean you need a new battery:
- The warning light on your dash stays lit for a long time after the engine has started – most modern vehicles have a battery warning light on their dashboards. This light will illuminate if there is an internal problem with the battery.
- The engine turns over slowly or sluggishly but doesn’t start – if your vehicle is regularly refusing to start, it could be in need of a new battery.
- Your headlights dim while you are idling then brighten when you rev your engine
- Your battery loses power quickly in cold weather – this can suggest that you have lost charge in your battery. A fully charged battery will be less affected by the cold weather because it will be able to call on more power to start the car.
If you haven’t had your battery replaced in the last four to five years, it may be time for a new one. Come by Forbury Service Centre and one of our certified battery technicians will conduct an automotive battery check for free.
