Tyres & Accessories is a tyre, wheel and automotive accessory focused trade magazine that was founded in 1946. It has an ABC audited circulation of 6,963,.

History
The first edition of Tyres & Accessories was published in June 1946 and opened with an editorial piece heralding the news that the tyre industry had "a voice at last." This issue was printed at a time when Second World War rationing was still in force and despite the fact that paper was in short supply. The first editor was Frederick Pearson William Carter, who began his career at the Bournemouth Daily Echo and was later head-hunted by Winston Churchill to reorganise the Public Relations and Press department of the Board of Trade in 1941, before leaving to found Tyres & Accessories in 1945.

The publication is also media sponsor of Brityrex, the UK's only dedicated tyre exhibition

Tyrepress.com
Since then, and following its acquisition in 1988 by German tyre magazine publisher Klaus Haddenbrock, the publication has expanded to the point that it now offers an online news portal - www.tyrepress.com. This made its online debut in 1998 in parallel with the launch of German sister publication Neue Reifenzeitung's website - www.reifenpresse.de and currently attracts up to 100,000 visits a month.

In addition to Tyrepress.com, Tyres & Accessories also produces a daily HTML e-Newsletter which is sent out to over 14,000 individual email addresses every working day.
