The tyre websites pay you a fitting fee. The tyre sale stays with them.
We couldn't find a single firm with a per-lead price list for mobile tyre fitters, and Google Ads shows no search volume at all for "mobile tyre fitting leads". The work arrives another way. Blackcircles lists over 2,200 fitting centres and pays its partners a fitting fee by self-billing invoice, after the driver has already paid it for the tyre. The nearest Zapo gets is car garages: ads from £400 a month plus VAT, and about £40 a lead if its own forecast holds. And drivers search "mobile tyre fitting" 27,100 times a month, at £7.49 a click.
This guide is for fitters whose van is the workshop: tyres, punctures and call-outs at the kerb. If you service and repair cars on the drive, read mobile mechanic leads. If you run a workshop with ramps and an MOT bay, it's leads for car garages.
Click "Mobile tyre fitting" on FixMyCar
"You're leaving FixMyCar"
FixMyCar, the garage marketplace at whocanfixmycar.com, charges garages from £120 a month plus VAT and 10% of each job won. Its own "Mobile tyre fitting" link doesn't lead to a mobile fitter. It hands the driver to eBay's tyre fitting service, where the tyres are bought on eBay and fitted by "a certified professional at a location near you". The tyre buyer goes where the tyre is sold.
Where we stand
We don't sell mobile tyre fitting leads. We help you get your own.
This guide is the honest version of what buying mobile tyre fitting leads costs, and who else gets them. What we do instead is build mobile tyre fitters a website that turns visits into calls, and run Google Ads in an account in your own name, so every lead that comes in is a customer who found you, and nobody else was sold it.
What a tyre can carry
Finding the customer for one budget tyre can cost more than the tyre.
Checkatrade's tyre prices are for a tyre supplied and fitted, so the rubber you buy in is already inside every figure below. That's what makes tyre work different from most trades on this site: a lead priced against the invoice is really priced against your margin, and on one tyre the margin is thin. Here is what a won job costs at Zapo's forecast and at the price of your own clicks, if you win one quote in 3.
| Job | Typical UK price | Zapo, about £40 a lead | Own ads, about £102 a lead |
|---|---|---|---|
| Puncture repair, one tyre | £30 to £50 | £120 a win, 300% of the job | £307 a win, 768% of the job |
| One budget tyre, fitted | £45 to £70 | £120 a win, 207% of the job | £307 a win, 529% of the job |
| One mid-range tyre, fitted | £75 to £120 | £120 a win, 122% of the job | £307 a win, 313% of the job |
| Four winter tyres, fitted | £600 to £800 | £120 a win, 17% of the job | £307 a win, 44% of the job |
Job prices are from Checkatrade's puncture repair guide (April 2026) and tyre change guide (June 2026), worked at the middle of each range. Winning one quote in 3 is MyJobQuote's figure for its own trades; nobody publishes one for tyre work. The Zapo figure is £400 a month divided by the 10 leads Zapo itself predicts for that plan. The own-ads column uses "mobile tyre fitting" at £7.49 a click and the conversion rate explained further down. Lead prices are before VAT.
As a rough rule, winning a job should cost about 10 to 15 percent of what it pays. No single tyre gets near that. Zapo's lead comes to 207% of a budget tyre and 122% of a mid-range one. A set of four winter tyres is the only row that comes close, at 17%. Checkatrade puts a premium tyre anywhere from £220 to £1,200, so one of those can carry a lead too, if you know in advance it's what the driver wants.
If the call is a nail in the tread
Halfords lists £30 a puncture repair for mobile or branch work, priced on a garage booking. A bought lead at Zapo's forecast costs 300% of a £40 repair once you count the quotes you lose. A puncture only earns when the tyre turns out to be beyond repair and you sell the replacement, or when the driver rings you again next time.
If they want all four
The sums turn round on a full set. That's the job worth paying to find, and it's also the job a tyre website sells online and then pays you to fit.
Your numbers
What's the most a mobile tyre fitting lead can cost you?
It opens on one mid-range tyre fitted. The calculator works on the whole invoice with the tyre included, so on tyre work your real ceiling sits below the answer it gives. Switch to the winter set and see how far the ceiling moves when four tyres share one lead.
WHAT CAN YOU PAY FOR A MOBILE TYRE LEAD?
Pick a job, or type in what yours are worth
Starts on one in three, the figure MyJobQuote tells its own trades to expect. Put in yours.
You can pay up to about
£5
a lead, winning one in 3
- Healthy range, per won job
- £10 to £15
- Which per lead is
- £3 to £5
Put a seller's price in the last box and this will tell you what each won job would cost you.
That 10 to 15 percent band is a rule of thumb we use across every trade, and on tyres it ignores the cost of the tyre itself.
Where the work comes from
Three tyre websites pass on fitting work. Two chains send their own vans.
These are the firms between a driver with a flat and a mobile fitter, quoted from their own websites. Most don't sell you a lead at all. They sell the tyre, and some of them pay you to put it on.
| Firm | What it is to you | Money | In their words |
|---|---|---|---|
| Blackcircles | Tyre website, fitting partner network | Fitting fee, amount unpublished | "agreed job numbers and regular fitting fee income" |
| etyres | Tyre website, fitting network | Not published | "Join our 800+ strong fitting network!" |
| Tyreleader | Tyre website, garages and mobile units | Not published | "mobile fitting stations which can come to your home" |
| Tyre Shopper | Tyre website, one fitting firm | One named partner | "our fitting partner National Tyres and Autocare" |
| Halfords Mobile Expert | A rival with its own vans | Hires at £29,995 to £33,425 | "Our mobile teams cover 80% of the UK" |
| Kwik Fit | A rival with its own vans | Not applicable | "over 200 mobile fitters nationwide" |
| FixMyCar | Garage marketplace | From £120 + VAT a month and 10% of jobs won | "You're leaving FixMyCar" |
| Zapo | Search ads in your name | £400 + VAT a month and up | "exclusive vehicle maintenance leads" |
| Leads Everyday | Ads and a landing page | Not published | Lists "Tyres" for the motor trade |
| Mr Tyreman UK | Mobile tyre franchise | Not published | "Phone Call Sales" |
Blackcircles pays a fee by self-billing invoice
Blackcircles offers partners "agreed job numbers and regular fitting fee income. This is always paid on-time by self-billing invoice." To join you need "the appropriate equipment, fully qualified fitters, and public liability insurance", and the listing goes live "from the 1st of the following month". Mobile fitters can join as well as garages: the site says its "mobile fitting partners are available at various locations across the UK".
The driver pays Blackcircles at checkout for the tyre, the fitting, balancing, a standard valve and "Disposal of your old tyres", and has "nothing to pay on the day". So the tyre margin and the customer's payment both sit with Blackcircles, and the fitting fee is all you see. What that fee is, Blackcircles doesn't publish. Ask for it per tyre, and ask who pays to dispose of the old ones, before you sign. It also runs a tyre referral scheme and will list extra services you offer, such as tracking, which is where a fitting job can earn something on top.
etyres and Tyreleader hand you the driver
etyres closed its franchise and now fits "through our fitting network of independent garages and mobile fitters", inviting fitters to "Sign up today, start getting customers tomorrow." Tyreleader has two kinds of partner, garages and "mobile fitting stations", and says the partner "receives an email with all of your order information and your contact details", then rings the driver to book. Neither publishes what it pays. Tyre Shopper names one fitting partner: all fifty of its mobile centres are National Tyres and Autocare.
Halfords and Kwik Fit put their own fitters on the road
Halfords Mobile Expert advertises for Mobile Tyre Technicians at £29,995 to £33,425, with a bonus averaging £2,400 a year and a "fully equipped van from the local Hub". Kwik Fit runs over 200 mobile fitters and texts the driver a two-hour arrival window. They're your competition for the same driver, not a source of jobs. Google gets 1,300 searches a month for "tyre fitting jobs" and 390 for "mobile tyre fitting jobs": the people on the other side of that salary.
Zapo, Leads Everyday and a franchise sell the rest
Zapo has no tyre page. Its nearest is car garages, promising "exclusive vehicle maintenance leads within the next 14 days" from search ads, with £200 of the £400 plan spent on the ads and 10 leads forecast. Leads Everyday lists "Tyres" among the motor trade work it advertises for, with no price. Mr Tyreman UK sells a mobile tyre franchise with 5 weeks of training and "Phone Call Sales" among its support, without a published fee. Bark has no tyre category we could find, and Leads Do Work's price list has no tyre row. Checkatrade does list Tyre Fitting and Mobile Tyre Fitting categories. A tyre job sent to several fitters turns into a race on price, and the shared-lead trap works through what that costs you.
Everything here about Blackcircles's contract comes from its own published terms and conditions, last read on 1 October 2026. Terms get revised, so check yours against the current version before you act on anything.

Check my areaBuying the click yourself
An emergency tyre click costs 11 times a part-worn one does.
"emergency tyre fitting" costs £14.42 a click and "24 hour mobile tyres" £13.50. At the other end, "part worn tyres near me" gets 18,100 searches a month at £1.32. Advertisers pay most for the driver who is stuck. For the per-lead column we assume 7.33% of clicks get in touch, which is WordStream's conversion rate for home improvement search ads. It's US data, so treat it as a rough guide.
| Search | Searches a month | Per click | Per lead |
|---|---|---|---|
| emergency tyre fitting | 390 | £14.42 | £197 |
| 24 hour mobile tyres | 320 | £13.50 | £184 |
| emergency tyre repair | 1,600 | £12.31 | £168 |

Google Ads data for the UK, pulled 1 October 2026. Click prices are what advertisers bid, so your own will land near them rather than on them. Google lumps "mobile tyre fitter" and its near-me versions in with the two "mobile tyre fitting" rows, so they aren't counted twice.
So a lead off "emergency tyre fitting" costs about £197 and one off "mobile puncture repair" about £99, for a repair Halfords sells at £30. "tyres fitted at home" comes in at about £72 a lead. Across the table your own leads run from £18 to £197, dearer than Zapo's £40 on most rows. What you buy with the difference is the choice of which drivers you pay for:
- Bid on sets and call-outs, not punctures
- Run the ads after 8pm, when Halfords stops
- Your van and number on the ad they tap
- Tyre prices on your site before they ring
- A driver who rings you, not a tyre website
- An ad account that stays yours
Halfords says its mobile teams cover 80% of the UK and work "7 days a week, 8am to 8pm". Outside those hours a driver with a flat is looking for somebody else. There's also 5,400 searches a month for "locking wheel nut removal" at £0.92 a click, a cheap job to be found for if you carry the kit. Google's UK Local Services Ads have no vehicle category, so there's no pay-per-lead Google listing for tyre fitters either. Setting a budget is covered in how much to spend on Google Ads, and the set-up in our Google Ads guide for tradesmen.
What rides in the van
Every tyre you take off leaves in your van. So does the paperwork.
gov.uk says a business that transports waste must register as a waste carrier, and the fine for not registering is unlimited. Registration is "usually free if you only transport waste you produce yourself", and £191.02 otherwise. Whether a tyre you take off a customer's car counts as your own waste is a question for the Environment Agency, so ask before you assume the free route. None of this appears on a lead, and Blackcircles' fitted price already includes disposal of the driver's old tyres.
Taking the old tyres away
Each load needs a waste transfer note, or an invoice carrying the same details, kept for 2 years. An upper tier carrier registration renews every 3 years at £130.25; a lower tier one never needs renewing.
Selling a part-worn tyre
The 1994 tyre safety rules want at least 2 millimetres of the original tread "across the full breadth of tread and round the entire outer circumference", no bulge, and "PART-WORN" in capitals at least 4 millimetres high, never hot branded.
Fixing the puncture instead
A repaired part-worn tyre has to meet BS AU 159e. Halfords repairs a puncture only in "the middle three-quarters of the tyre tread" with legal tread left, and won't repair a punctured run-flat at all.
Kwik Fit tells its drivers that if a tyre can be safely repaired, the fitter repairs it, takes the new tyres back and refunds the difference. That's the promise you're up against on a booked replacement, and a reason to quote the repair first: the driver you saved a tyre for is the one who books you for the next set.
Through the year
Tyre searches climb after Christmas and sag through the summer.
UK searches for "mobile tyre fitting" held at 33,100 a month from January to March, then fell to 22,200 from June to August. That's a swing of about 1.5 times, and even the quietest month had plenty of drivers looking.
UK searches for "mobile tyre fitting", by month
September 2025 to August 2026. Google Ads keyword data, rounded bands.
Spend more in January
"tyres fitted at home" rose to 5,400 in January and March from 2,900 in October. The first quarter is when a bigger budget has the most drivers to find.
Summer still needs tyres
Even the low months held 22,200 searches. A quiet summer week is the time to ring the drivers you fitted in winter and remind them who to call next time.
Before you pay
A motor trade lead needs checking before it reaches your phone.
Leads Everyday lists tyres alongside MOTs, servicing and bodywork, and Zapo's nearest page sells "vehicle maintenance leads", so the first thing to find out is whether you'd be paying for tyre work at all. The ICO also puts the data checks on the business buying the lead: a seller's promise that consent was collected properly isn't enough on its own. More on how that has gone wrong for other trades is in our roofing leads guide.
Before you pay for mobile tyre work, ask:
- Is it a tyre job, or any car repair?
- Which website did the driver fill in?
- Does the consent name my business?
- How many other fitters get the same lead?
- What do you pay me per tyre fitted?
- Who pays to dispose of the old tyres?
A tyre website that won't give you a per-tyre fitting fee in writing hasn't told you what the job is worth. Get the figure before the first booking lands.
Which way to go
Let the tyre sites fill quiet days. Advertise for the sets and the call-outs under your name.
Take fitting fees if
- The van has empty slots
- You know the fee per tyre
- Disposal is paid for
- You want no ad spend
Think twice if
- Leads include any car job
- Punctures are most of it
- Nobody names the source
- The fee is not in writing
Run your own if
- You sell sets and premiums
- You work late and weekends
- You want repeat drivers
- The ad account is yours
A fitting fee keeps the van moving, but every driver it brings belongs to the website that sold the tyre. The money in mobile tyres is the set of four, the late call-out and the driver who rings you direct next winter. Fit glass as well? That market is in windscreen leads, and cleaning cars on the drive is in car valeting leads. Every other trade is in our guide to trade leads.
Our sources
Every tyre figure above, and the page it came off.
We build websites and run Google Ads for trades, so we're not neutral about own ads against bought work. That's why every firm above is quoted in its own words, and why the tables show your own clicks costing more per lead than Zapo's forecast on most searches.
Seller pages and terms were read on 1 October 2026, the Blackcircles partner wording from its help centre, and the UK search and click data was pulled from Google Ads the same day. Job prices are from Checkatrade's puncture repair and tyre change guides, and the puncture price and repair rules from Halfords. The waste rules are from gov.uk on carrier registration and transfer notes, the part-worn rules from legislation.gov.uk, and lead consent from the ICO.
Questions mobile tyre fitters ask
Mobile tyre fitting leads, answered.
- How much do mobile tyre fitting leads cost in the UK?
- We found nobody selling them at a published price per lead, and Google records no searches for the phrase. The tyre websites pay fitters instead: Blackcircles promises "regular fitting fee income" paid by self-billing invoice, without publishing the amount. Zapo has no tyre page; its car garage campaigns start at £400 a month plus VAT and forecast 10 leads, about £40 each. A click on your own mobile tyre ad costs £1.32 to £14.42.
- How do I join the Blackcircles fitting network as a mobile fitter?
- Blackcircles says it has mobile fitting partners as well as garages. It asks for "the appropriate equipment, fully qualified fitters, and public liability insurance", and a new partner's listing goes live "from the 1st of the following month". It pays a fitting fee by self-billing invoice; the driver has already paid Blackcircles for the tyre and the fitting.
- Can a one-tyre job pay for a bought lead?
- Rarely. At £40 a lead and one win in 3, a won job costs £120, which is 207% of a budget tyre fitted at £58 and 300% of a £40 puncture repair. The same lead is 17% of a £700 set of four winter tyres. Checkatrade's tyre prices include the tyre, so your margin is smaller than the job.
- Do I need a waste carrier licence to take old tyres away?
- gov.uk says a business that transports waste must register as a waste carrier, with an unlimited fine for not doing so. Registration is usually free if you only carry waste you produce yourself, and £191.02 otherwise; an upper tier registration renews every 3 years at £130.25. Each load needs a waste transfer note, kept for 2 years. Check with the Environment Agency which tier your tyres put you in.
- Can a mobile fitter sell part-worn tyres?
- Yes, within the Motor Vehicle Tyres (Safety) Regulations 1994. The tread must be at least 2 millimetres deep across the full breadth and all the way round, there must be no bulge or deep cut, any repair must meet BS AU 159e, and the tyre must be marked "PART-WORN" in capitals at least 4 millimetres high, not hot branded or cut in.
- When do people search for mobile tyre fitting most?
- In the last 12 months, UK searches for "mobile tyre fitting" peaked from January to March at 33,100 a month and were lowest from June to August at 22,200, about 1.5 times apart.
- Does Halfords use independent mobile tyre fitters?
- Its own pages describe Mobile Expert technicians, and its job advert for a Mobile Tyre Technician offers a salary of £29,995 to £33,425 with a van collected from a local hub. Kwik Fit says it has over 200 mobile fitters. Both are competitors for the driver rather than sources of work.
- What should I ask before paying for motor trade leads?
- Which website or ad the driver filled in, whether the consent names your business, whether the lead is a tyre job at all, how many other fitters receive it, and what happens to a lead you cannot reach. The ICO says a buyer has to make its own checks and cannot rely on the seller's word.
