# Kia Tyre Fitting Scotland: Every Model Covered

The Kia Sportage was the third best-selling car in the UK in 2023, and Kia's range of SUVs, EVs, and family cars has grown enormously in Scotland over the last five years. Tyre Rescue provides specialist mobile Kia tyre fitting across all of Scotland — the right tyre for your exact model, every time.

Kia Sportage Tyre Sizes

Sportage (QL, 2016–2021): 215/65R16 base, 235/55R18 upper trims.

PHEV note: The Sportage plug-in hybrid carries a large battery — load index 104+ is required. We always verify this before fitting.

Kia TPMS Reset

All Kia models from 2016 onward have TPMS. After any tyre change:

  • Indirect TPMS (Rio, Picanto, Ceed, Niro HEV): Reset via the instrument cluster — Vehicle Info → Tyre → Reset
  • Direct TPMS (EV6, Sorento, Sportage PHEV): Requires a TPMS diagnostic tool to relearn each sensor

Tyre Rescue carries Kia-compatible TPMS reset tools. Reset is included at no additional charge with every fitting.
