We're On A Mission To Make
Buying Tyres Simple.
Hyper Drive is New Zealand's largest online tyre store. We believe every Kiwi deserves a fair deal on quality tyres — without the hassle, the jargon, or the runaround.
The Hyper Drive Story
Twenty-six years. One mission. Here's how a dusty tyre shop in Otahuhu became New Zealand's largest online tyre retailer.
A Dusty Shop in Otahuhu
It didn't start with a flashy website or a massive warehouse. Hyper Drive began its life as a hardworking tyre shop in Otahuhu, Auckland. Back then, it was just a small team with a simple goal: give local drivers honest advice, quality tyres, and a fair price. We learned the trade the old-fashioned way — with grease on our hands and a deep respect for our customers.
Buying Tyres Was Still Too Painful
Even as our Otahuhu shop grew, we noticed a bigger problem across the country. Buying tyres was a headache for most Kiwis. Confusing sizes, pushy salespeople, and no real idea if you were getting a fair price. People dreaded it — and we didn't blame them.
What If We Took Our Otahuhu Ethos Online?
We asked ourselves: what if we could take the honest, straightforward service we built in our Otahuhu shop and make it available to the whole country? What if you could find the right tyre, see the real price, and book fitting — all from your phone, in under five minutes?
NZ's Largest Online Tyre Retailer
Twenty-six years after opening that dusty shop in Otahuhu, thousands of Kiwis trust Hyper Drive every month. We stock tyres from the world's best brands and deliver free to over 250 fitting locations nationwide. The technology has changed — but the mission remains exactly the same as day one: fair deals, no jargon, and putting the customer first.
Tyres Shouldn't Be Complicated
For too long, buying tyres in New Zealand has been confusing and overpriced. Walk into most tyre shops and you're hit with jargon, upselling, and prices that seem to change depending on who's asking.
We built Hyper Drive because we believed there was a better way. One price for everyone. Clear information. Quality brands you can trust. And a fitting network that means you're never far from a professional installer.
Straight Up
No hidden fees, no confusing jargon, no pressure. We show you the price, explain the options, and let you decide. What you see is what you pay.
Customer First
Every decision we make starts with one question: does this make life easier for our customers? If it doesn't, we don't do it.
Quality Guaranteed
We only stock tyres from brands we'd put on our own cars. Every tyre comes with a manufacturer warranty and our own 5-year satisfaction guarantee.

Find your tyres in under 2 minutes. Order online. Get them fitted the same week. We've stripped out everything that slows you down.
