About Us – rentwheels Australia’s Journey to Superior Tyre Care
rentwheels Australia was founded in 2018 in Sydney by automotive engineer Marcus Chen and tyre-industry veteran Olivia Thompson, who shared a vision of raising tyre-service standards nationwide. Frustrated by inconsistent workmanship and hidden fees in the traditional tyre-service market, they assembled a team of certified technicians trained to global benchmarks, and equipped their first Sydney workshop with Hunter wheel balancers, Hofmann tyre changers, and Hunter HawkEye alignment rigs. Early success in delivering reliable, transparent services led to rapid expansion: by 2020, rentwheels Australia had opened service centres in Melbourne, Brisbane, and Adelaide.
Each facility adheres to rigorous quality protocols: every technician undergoes quarterly training with Bridgestone and Michelin experts on the latest mounting techniques, balancing algorithms, and alignment specifications. Our workshops are designed for efficiency and accuracy—featuring digital wheel balancers capable of simulating speeds up to 200 km/h, laser-guided alignment bays accurate to 0.1 degrees, and high-pressure pneumatic changers that protect delicate alloy rims. When you book a service, we begin with a comprehensive inspection: examining tyre tread depth, sidewall integrity, bead seating, and remaining tread patterns using digital tread gauges and video inspection tools. All findings are documented in a detailed digital report that you receive via email or through our customer portal.
Beyond fitting and balancing, rentwheels Australia is committed to innovation and convenience. We launched our mobile tyre-service fleet in mid-2019, offering on-site tyre fitting, puncture repairs, and emergency roadside support. Each mobile van is equipped with a portable Hofmann balancer, digital inflator calibrated to inflation-accuracy tolerances of ±1 PSI, and a full suite of common tyre sizes and balancing weights. Whether your vehicle is a commuter hatchback in Perth’s suburbs or a heavy-duty 4×4 in Darwin, our mobile technicians arrive within four hours of booking, ready to perform precision mounting and balancing that matches our workshop standards.
Customer trust is essential: our pricing is fully transparent, with no hidden disposal fees or surcharges. Every quote is itemised—labour hours, balancing weights, valve replacements, and environmental-levy contributions are listed separately. We carry Partnership Programme agreements with leading tyre brands—Pirelli, Continental, Bridgestone, and Goodyear—ensuring access to the full range of tyre options, from performance summer tyres to all-terrain winter tyres, in both passenger and light-truck sizes. Partnership discounts allow us to pass on savings to customers while maintaining OEM-compliant quality.
Sustainability is also a priority. rentwheels Australia recycles over 95 % of captured tyre rubber through accredited processing facilities, and our workshops use low-VOC cleaners and energy-efficient LED bay lighting. All spent oils and lubricants are disposed of via certified hazardous-waste contractors. Our mobile vans run on biodiesel blends to minimise carbon emissions, and we actively participate in tyre-recycling initiatives across major cities. By 2022, rentwheels Australia had redirected over 150 tonnes of tyre material away from landfills.
With over 20,000 vehicles serviced and a customer-satisfaction rating averaging 4.9 / 5, rentwheels Australia continues to set the standard for tyre care. Whether you’re a city commuter, a weekend road-tripper, or a regional farmer, our blend of technical expertise, transparent service, and eco-friendly practices ensures your vehicle remains safe, efficient, and ready for every journey. Join thousands of satisfied motorists who trust us to keep their wheels aligned—and their travels worry-free.
