Tire accessories

Tire accessories are key pieces of equipment that enhance vehicle functionality and safety, especially in challenging road conditions. With the right accessories, such as snow chains and tool kits, you can ensure a comfortable ride and quickly resolve any tire-related issues. At Global Parts, you'll find a wide selection of used car parts , including tire accessories, ideal for BMW , Audi , Mercedes , Volkswagen , Mini , and more . Tire accessories also include items related to monitoring and maintaining proper tire performance, such as tire repair kits and TPMS pressure sensors. Their function is to support everyday vehicle operation by maintaining optimal pressure, which in most passenger cars ranges from approximately 2.0 to 2.6 bar – depending on the model, load, and tire size.

What components are included in tire accessories ?

Our offer includes the following tire accessories : Snow chains and snow guards – Essential in winter conditions, they improve wheel traction on slippery and snow-covered surfaces, increasing driving safety. Lifts and tool kits – They make it easier to quickly change tires or perform minor repairs on the road, ensuring independence and convenience. In practice, tire repair kits are among the most frequently chosen accessories, used in Mercedes and BMW vehicles, among others, as an alternative to the spare tire. A Mercedes tire repair kit or a BMW tire repair kit typically consists of a compressor and a sealant, which allows for temporary restoration of the vehicle's mobility without the need to remove the wheel. This solution reduces the vehicle's weight and increases cargo space.

Why is it worth taking care of tire accessories ?

Not having the right tire accessories can make driving difficult in challenging conditions or delay the resolution of tire-related problems. Typical situations where accessories are essential include: Driving on snow and ice – Without snow chains or snow guards, your vehicle may lose traction, increasing the risk of skidding. Emergency tire replacement – The lack of a jack or the right tools may prevent you from quickly replacing a damaged tire. Rim and tire protection – Additional accessories can prevent damage to your rims and tires when driving in difficult conditions. At Global Parts, we offer original used tire accessories that have undergone extensive quality testing, ensuring their reliability and durability. A key element of modern tire accessories is TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring System) sensors, which continuously monitor tire pressure levels. For example, the Audi A4 B8 tire pressure sensor, the Audi A6 C6 tire pressure sensor, the BMW F10 tire pressure sensor, and the Peugeot 3008 tire pressure sensor all work with the vehicle's on-board systems, transmitting data in real time. This provides the driver with immediate information on pressure loss, promoting safety and even tire wear.

How to choose the right tire accessories ?

When choosing tire accessories, there are several key aspects to consider: Vehicle-specific fit – Every vehicle has its own specific requirements regarding wheel size and tire type. At Global Parts, you'll find tire accessories perfectly suited to BMW , Audi , Mercedes , Volkswagen , Mini , and more . Technical condition – Used accessories should be free from mechanical damage and excessive wear, especially in the case of snow chains. Functionality – Ensure that jacks and tool kits are complete and functional so they can perform their function when needed. The selection of tire accessories is based primarily on parameters such as tire size (e.g., 205/55 R16, 225/45 R17), rim diameter, and vehicle systems, such as direct or indirect TPMS . This ensures full compatibility of accessories with other driving system components, such as rims, suspension, and braking systems.

Why choose used tire accessories ?

Used car parts , such as tire accessories, are a practical solution that allows you to save money while maintaining high quality. By choosing used tire accessories, you benefit from: Lower costs – Used accessories are significantly cheaper than new ones, but offer just as high quality. For example, a BMW tire repair kit costs on average 40–50% less than a new one, with full functionality. Ecology – Recycling car parts supports environmental protection and reduces waste. Using used components limits the production of new plastics and metal, which significantly reduces CO₂ emissions throughout the parts' life cycle. A wide selection – Our store offers tire accessories for the most popular car brands. Our selection includes tire pressure sensors (BMW F10, Audi A4 B8, Peugeot 3008 tire pressure sensors) and tire repair kits for Mercedes and BMW, compatible with many vehicle models.

How to take care of tire accessories ?

To ensure that your tire accessories last a long time, it is worth following a few rules: Regularly check the condition of your snow chains to avoid damage when driving in challenging conditions. This includes checking the chain links and tension, as well as lubricating the pivot points if necessary, which increases their lifespan by up to 20-30% compared to no maintenance. Store jacks and tools in a dry place to prevent corrosion and maintain their full functionality. For hydraulic jacks, it's also a good idea to periodically check the oil level and system for leaks to avoid a drop in lifting performance. Please refer to the instruction manual for chains and lifts to use them quickly and easily when needed. If you need a replacement, you'll find the right used car parts at Global Parts that will restore the full functionality of your tire accessories. Each part is tailored to a specific vehicle model, such as the Audi A6 C6 tire pressure sensor or the Mercedes tire repair kit, ensuring full compatibility and hassle-free installation.
