Campervan & Motorhome Tyres
Campervan Tyres In GuildfordCP-Rated For The Weight
Motorhomes and campervans are heavy and spend long spells parked, so they need Camping (CP) or reinforced commercial tyres built for high static loads — plus age checks, because the rubber perishes before it wears. From VW California to a full Ducato motorhome, we fit the correct spec.

Why Camper Tyres Are Different
Load, Age & Long Miles
A motorhome tyre has one of the hardest lives of any — heavy, often parked, then asked to tour long distances loaded.
01
Built for high static load
CP (Camping) tyres are designed for the heavy, constant weight of a motorhome sitting on them for weeks — ordinary tyres aren't.
02
Age before mileage
Campers often do low miles, so tyres perish with age. Replace around 5–7 years regardless of tread, like caravans.
03
Safe when fully loaded
Water, gas, kit and passengers add up. Correct-rated tyres brake and grip safely at full touring weight.
04
Resist standing damage
Long spells parked cause cracking and flat-spotting. Camper tyres and regular checks reduce the risk of a nasty surprise.
05
Correct laden pressures
Motorhome tyres need high, precise pressures for the load. We set them to spec before you tour.
06
Checked before you travel
Bring the camper in before a big trip for a free age, condition and pressure check — cheap peace of mind.

Camper Tyre Essentials
What Every Camper Owner Should Know
Motorhome tyre safety is mostly about load rating and age. Here's what we check.
CP vs C vs car tyres
CP (Camping) tyres are made for motorhome static loads; C (Cargo) tyres suit van conversions; car tyres are wrong for either. We fit the correct type for your camper.
The DOT age code
The four-digit sidewall code dates the tyre. Over 5–7 years, replace regardless of tread — perished rubber is the main camper tyre risk.
Laden pressures are high
Fully-loaded motorhomes need high, specific pressures. Running low wears tyres, wastes fuel and is unsafe. We set them correctly.
Watch for flat-spotting
Standing all winter can deform tyres. We check for it before you head off in spring.
CP
The Camping tyre marking
CP (Camping) tyres are purpose-built for motorhomes — engineered for high static loads and long parking spells, at the high pressures motorhomes run. Van conversions may use C (commercial) tyres instead. We'll identify exactly what your camper needs and fit the correct spec.
Heading away? Book a free camper tyre check — age, condition and laden pressures, all sorted.
Not sure CP or C? We'll identify it.
Tell us your camper and we'll fit the correct Camping or commercial tyre at the right load rating.
Do You Actually Need New Tyres?
Six Signs It's Time To Replace
If any of these sound like your car, bring it in for a free check before it becomes an MOT failure or a fine.
Tread near 1.6mm
The legal minimum across the central three-quarters of the tyre. Below it, it's an instant MOT failure.
Cracks in the sidewall
Fine cracking means the rubber has perished. Common on cars that sit unused for long periods.
A bulge or egg-shaped lump
Usually kerb damage. The internal structure has failed and the tyre can blow out — replace it now, not next week.
Worn on one edge only
A classic alignment problem. New tyres alone won't fix it — the geometry needs setting up too.
Vibration through the wheel
Often a balancing issue, sometimes a deformed tyre. Either way it's wearing your suspension while you drive.
Over 6 years old
Check the 4-digit DOT code on the sidewall. Rubber hardens with age even with plenty of tread left.
1.6mm
The UK legal minimum tread depth
Measured across the central three-quarters of the tread, around the whole tyre. Most safety bodies recommend replacing at 3mm — wet braking falls off sharply below that, long before you're actually illegal.
The 20p test: push a 20p coin into the main tread groove. If you can see the outer band of the coin, your tread may be below the limit — get it checked.
Driving on an illegal tyre risks a £2,500 fine and 3 penalty points — per tyre. All four illegal means up to £10,000 and losing your licence.
Free tyre check — no appointment needed
Pop in and we'll check tread, pressures and condition on all four tyres. Takes 10 minutes, costs nothing, and there's no obligation to buy.

Common Questions
Campervan Tyres — Answered
What tyres does a motorhome need?
Most coachbuilt motorhomes need CP (Camping) rated tyres, purpose-built for the high static loads of a heavy vehicle that sits parked for long spells. Van conversions like a VW California may use reinforced C (commercial) tyres instead. We identify the correct type and load rating for your specific camper.
What's the difference between CP and C tyres?
CP (Camping) tyres are designed specifically for motorhomes — high static load capacity at high pressures for a vehicle that's often parked fully loaded. C (Cargo) tyres are commercial van tyres. Both are stronger than car tyres, but we'll fit the correct one for your camper type.
How often should campervan tyres be replaced?
Typically every 5 to 7 years regardless of tread, because campers do low mileage and the tyres perish with age and standing load. Check the DOT date code on the sidewall — or bring it in and we'll read it and assess the condition for you.
Can you check my camper tyres before a trip?
Yes — we recommend it. We'll read the age code, check for cracking and flat-spotting from storage, and set the correct laden pressures. It's a free safety check that's well worth it before a long tour.
How much are campervan tyres in Guildford?
fully fitted for van-based campers, and around for CP-rated motorhome tyres, depending on size. All prices include fitting, balancing, valve, disposal and VAT.
