How to Choose the Right Tyre Changer for Your Garage

Our Range of Tyre Changers

The world's leading brands choose ISN Garage Assist to maintain their well-earned reputations because we reflect the high standards their brands are known for; we're proud to work together to give our customers access to premium garage equipment tailored to every workshop. Let our extensive knowledge guide you through the process of comparing and selecting the correct tyre changer for your needs.

For smaller garages, focusing on servicing, mechanical repairs and MOTs, for instance, semi-automatic tyre changers are best for balancing cost with capability. If space is limited, consider the Luxus 314 G-Series, a traditional, single-phase (240V) machine with swing-arm design. Building on the much-loved megamount 303, this machine boasts the strongest, most functionally perfect turntable, capable of clamping up to 24" external rim (26" internal).

Fitted with the unique 'megafit duo light' twin assist arm system, it handles low profile and run-flat tyres easily and is also available in a 12v version for mobile operators.

Busy, high-volume tyre shops needing a fully automatic tyre changer would do well to invest in the Megamount 70LLF, a heavy-duty, high performance changer with two pneumatic cylinders - from the prestigious Hofmann Megaplan brand.

Garages dealing with luxury or sports tyres need a leverless tyre changer and, undoubtedly, the best choice for this is the X Boss, which allows for clamping of up to 30". Endorsed by BMW, Mercedes-Benz and Lamborghini, the X Boss is unparalleled in its intelligent technology. This means it handles any passenger car tyre with virtually no risk to rim or tyre.

Tyre Changer Features That Matter Most

Whether you're opting for a classic Hofmann or a premium Luxus, all our machines are constructed from heavy-duty materials, so you can be sure that they meet the demands of heavy daily use whilst adhering to the highest safety standards.

Whatever wheel size rolls through your doors, you'll need a machine with the correct maximum rim capacity. If you deal mainly in heavy plant or lorry tyres, our heavyweight Megamount 752 offers an impressive rim diameter capacity of 56" and a maximum rim width of 42".

Do you need an assist arm? Essential for your run-flats, it will make your life easier and your tyre changes more efficient. Check out the Luxus 614 G Series with its unique arm/blade design that ensures universal application. Or, if you're short on space and require a machine with a smaller footprint, the Luxus 614 G Series boasts a neat, compact swing arm design that does not compromise on its ability to handle any rim size or tyre.

Bead breaker strength makes all the difference; nobody wants to risk rim damage or put extra strain on the technician. Any Hofmann Megaplan tyre changer machine is going to handle tough beads without breaking a sweat, but the megamount REBEL flaunts an impressive combined removal process. Dedicated push buttons control the bead breaker process, while the rigid frame helps to work on difficult tyres easily, maximising your efficiency.

Also consider a machine with a tilt-back tower to switch between jobs quickly or with touchless mount/demount tools, like the velomount 3240, to give you peace of mind when working on premium alloys. A powerful pneumatic clamping system, like the megamount 70LLF, locks wheels securely and adjusts in seconds or an integrated wheel lift allows you to handle heavy rims safely, without slowing down. Whatever feature is most important to you, we've got the machine to match.

Why You Should Invest in High-Quality Tyre Changers

Investing in a quality tyre changer improves your garage's efficiency, reputation and bottom line. After all, reliable services mean happy customers who are more likely to return next time. A decent brand also means fewer breakdowns and more jobs completed with minimal delay. Better machines handle trickier tyres too, which lets you offer specialist services and charge accordingly and, because they're built to last, you'll spend less on repairs and replacements.

Most importantly, when people see you're using trusted brands like Hofmann Megaplan or Luxus, it sends a strong message that you care — which is great for your reputation and for bringing in new customers. In a competitive market, repeat business and word-of-mouth referrals are the difference between steady growth and standing still.

So, when you're ready to select the right tyre changer to boost your efficiency, reputation, and profit margins, contact ISN Garage Assist.
