/ About Jewell Tyres

Built over 50 years. Run by people who know tyres.

Jewell Tyres has been trading off-the-road tyres into Australian mining, earthmoving and civil construction sites since 1975. We're not a startup story. We're a proven platform.

Founder David Jewell started in tyres in 1974. Probably still a farmer at heart, he built the business on what mattered most then and still matters now - knowing the gear, knowing the people, and being easy to deal with.

/ What we've traded through

Five decades of business. The boom-and-bust cycles in mining, the consolidation of OEM tyre supply, the rise of Asian manufacturing, the shift from bias to radial, the move to giant 63" haul-truck tyres. We've traded through all of it.

/ What hasn't changed

We know the sizes, the patterns, the compounds, the manufacturers. We know which tyres run well on which machines, in which conditions, and which don't. That practical knowledge is what gets us called when a buyer needs a tyre that doesn't appear to exist anywhere, or when a seller has stock that doesn't fit anyone's standard catalogue.

From articulated dump trucks in iron ore, to underground loaders, to graders on a civil job, to ag and forestry. Real machines, real conditions, real outcomes.

David
Jewell

Probably still a farmer at heart, David Jewell started the business in 1975 with the conviction that being practical, fast, and easy to deal with was a winning formula in OTR tyre trading.

He was right. Five decades on, that's still the formula. David remains hands-on with the business – buyers and sellers deal with him directly, not through layers of account management.

"Our tyres are used in the most extreme conditions on earth, for some of the world's largest mining companies. The job is to get the right rubber on the right machine, fast, at a fair price. That's what we do."
