Posted on by Thuto Chauke

Tiger Wheel & Tyre Launches New X-Sure® Tyre and Wheel Insurance

 

Tiger Wheel & Tyre is excited to announce the launch of an all-new X-Sure® Tyre and Wheel Insurance. This new insurance product offers extensive coverage and additional value-added benefits to protect your vehicle’s tyres and wheels.

 

Tiger Wheel & Tyre understands that driving is about more than just transportation to you; it symbolises freedom and the connection to life’s most cherished moments. To further enhance your driving experience and your peace of mind, the company has collaborated with trusted partners, The Hollard Insurance Company Limited (Reg No.1952/003004/06), a Licensed Non-life Insurer and an authorised Financial Services Provider, as the underwriters, and Motorite Administrators licensed as Financial Services Providers in terms of the FAIS Act, to develop the new X-Sure® Tyre & Wheel Insurance.

 

With X-Sure® customers enjoy the convenience of paying in affordable monthly instalments, with no excess, sparing you from large upfront payments and allowing you to drive with confidence and security. The insurance includes tyre and wheel benefits and offers five flexible options, catering to various needs and preferences and is available on new or used tyres. Each option includes the following benefits:

 

Tyres: Covering up to two claims in a 12-month cycle, customers are protected against accidental tyre damage events. Claims are not limited per tyre but per event, enabling coverage for multiple tyres within a claim up to the specified benefit limits per tyre. Customers can claim up to 4 tyres per event, with a maximum of 2 events per 12-month cycle.

 

Wheels: Providing coverage for one claim event over a 12-month cycle, customers are safeguarded against accidental wheel damage. Similar to the tyre benefit, claims are limited to an event rather than per wheel, ensuring comprehensive protection.

 

Additional Value-Added Benefits

 

Beyond the comprehensive insurance coverage, Tiger Wheel & Tyre adds further value to your X-Sure® Policy by offering exclusive non-insurance benefits.

 

Policyholders whose policy has been active for three months are eligible for discount benefits, including a nifty 10% off any battery purchase, and 10% off any windscreen chip repair at participating Tiger Wheel & Tyre stores. If your policy has been active for six months, you qualify for two free puncture repairs per year.

 

Policyholders whose policy has been active for 12 months, qualify for:

  • One free tyre balancing and rotation service per annum
  • One free wheel alignment per annum after 12 months of your active X-Sure® Policy and thereafter annually, subject to no claims over the prior 12 months
  • A 20% discount on the cost of a full wheel colour change

 

For easy access to your policy and benefits, Tiger Wheel & Tyre has developed a user-friendly cellphone mobile app, allowing seamless management of your X-Sure® Tyre and Wheel Insurance which is available on the App store.

 

Experience worry-free driving and protect your tyres and wheels with X-Sure®. For more information and to read all the Ts and Cs, visit any Tiger Wheel & Tyre or go to www.twt.co.za. Your next journey beckons, so don’t wait, embrace the road with confidence today!

Tyres & More 10th Birthday

 

So much more than an auto shop – Tyres & More® celebrates 10 years of #KeepingSAMoving

Ten years ago a fresh new brand, from the TiAuto stable, opened an automotive fitment centre in Woodmead that would forever change how South Africans feel about vehicle repairs and maintenance. Now, we have 23 stores, countrywide! From Day One though, Tyres & More® has been so much more than just another auto shop.

 

More? How much more?

First, let’s check how we deliver on the basics. Yes, from minor to major services and repairs, you get world-class automotive service. Yes, all the parts we use in our workshops and sell in our showrooms are high-quality brands. Yes, we turn the work around in no time at all. Yes, the emphasis is always on safety first.

 

What’s more, is that we deliver all this with a fresh, fun approach that injects as much joy into the process as possible, because we know you enjoy fixing your car about as much as you like visiting the dentist. More still though, you’re paying less than you thought possible for our quality workmanship, top-notch parts, and fabulous friendliness.

 

Finally, at the very heart of everything we stand for is the goal to quickly, effectively, and affordably keep you safely on the road. You, in turn, get to use all the time and money you saved choosing Tyres & More®, to go get more from life. More time with family and friends. More worry-free road trips.

Driving the drive. TiAuto takes real action to help the environment.

 

TiAuto, the holding company of South Africa’s favourite Automotive Fitment centre brands Tiger Wheel & Tyre, Tyres & More, Treads Unlimited and many more, released measurable results today that show how serious the organisation is about reducing its carbon footprint.

 

Alex Taplin, CEO of TiAuto Investments is a fervent believer. “One of the cornerstones of our business is a commitment to helping our planet. We know that we need to act now. We need to change old habits and form new ones if we want to leave a healthy world to our future generations.

“As a leader in the motor industry, we have an even greater responsibility to minimise our impact on the planet.”

The business’s commitment to renewable energy has delivered substantial progress, and with more to come. Sixteen of the Group’s retail stores have completed Phase 1 to convert to solar power. Phase 2 is now well-underway, with the goal of having all stores running on solar energy within the next three years.

Initial results of the move to solar power are impressive. The Group has so far produced an annualised 498 MWh of clean energy, reduced CO² emissions by 295 tonnes, and saved an equivalent of 42,908 litres of oil.

Recycling has also been a keen focus of TiAuto and has yielded positive results. “We have recycled 40,000kg of lead, over 240,000 tyres, 150 tonnes of wastepaper and packaging, and have safely repaired over 2 million alloy wheels to date. We believe in the principles of the 3 R’s – Reuse, Reduce and Recycle said Taplin.

“Of course, contributing positively to the environment is not just the right thing to do, it’s just smart business. We are certainly not finished yet, so watch this space for more exciting announcements in due course”, Taplin finished.
