Trailer Tyres
Trailer tyres take a unique beating. They endure high loads, long motorway miles and tight turning in yards and loading bays, all while the driver has limited feedback on their condition. NeedATyre supplies and fits trailer tyres in 22.5-inch rim sizes, including the widely used 385/65R22.5 super single and twin-fitment options like 295/80R22.5 and 315/80R22.5. We deliver and fit at your location so trailers stay in service.
Choosing the right trailer tyre pattern makes a real difference to operating costs. Low rolling resistance trailer tyres reduce fuel consumption across the fleet, while robust casing designs extend tyre life and improve retreadability. Our stock includes tyres suited to motorway work, regional distribution, and mixed-use applications. We can help you select the right tyre for your trailer type and typical duty cycle.
Trailer tyres are often neglected because they sit in a yard between loads. If you notice uneven wear, sidewall cracking, or low tread depth on your trailer fleet, get in touch for a mobile fitting visit. We can replace individual tyres or carry out a full trailer refit on site.

What is a 385/65R22.5 tyre?
The 385/65R22.5 is a super single trailer tyre commonly used on commercial trailers in the UK. It replaces a twin wheel setup with a single wider tyre, reducing weight and simplifying maintenance. It is one of the most popular trailer tyre sizes on the road.
How often should trailer tyres be replaced?
Trailer tyres should be replaced when tread depth reaches the legal minimum of 1mm across the central three-quarters of the tread. However, most fleet operators replace at 2-3mm for safety. Regular inspections for damage, cracking and uneven wear are also important.
Can you fit tyres on a trailer at a yard or loading bay?
Yes. Our mobile fitters can work at depots, yards, loading bays, truck stops and other locations where the trailer is parked. We just need safe, level access to the trailer and enough space to work around the wheels.
Do you supply super single and twin trailer tyres?
Yes. We stock both 385/65R22.5 super single trailer tyres and standard twin-fitment sizes such as 295/80R22.5 and 315/80R22.5 for trailers running twin wheel configurations.
