I have ceramic tile
That's me on eBay for an evening looking for a job lot....I would be interested in doing that to my garage as well
It would have to be strong to hold a jack with a single point load.
In the US at least, all tiles come with a rating tag in the box, with a PEI rating for hardness (1-5), coefficient of friction, and moisture content. The hardness ought to be 4 or 5, the coef of friction determines how slippery they'll be, and the moisture content determines how they'll withstand freeze/thaw cycles. All of this is explained on the tag, if I remember right.
But the key is that you don't install them with dabs of thinset that leave voids underneath. Like concrete, tiles are weak in suspension (as in spanning a void), but very strong in compression (as in supporting weight when they're well-supported underneath).

ha, I was actually going to put a disclaimer against the plate, I knew somebody would say something. I'm a fond reader of the Chav plate thread but don't give a st really. Wives name is Karn, she likes it.
Obviously I have another set for the MOT
Karn "T"?Obviously I have another set for the MOT
Now that is unfortunate

Nice one, I will have to save up for a bit however. But the key is that you don't install them with dabs of thinset that leave voids underneath.

Been looking at rubber tiles, they aren't cheap either.

What are you using to hang the spare wheels from the walls?
Silverline Double Storage Hook 250mmhttp://www.collierspaintshop.co.uk/silverline-doub...
Got them fron eBay however. They hold the BMW 18" wheels no problem. I just screwed them in to the brick with raw plugs.
I have some wheel storage bags too but have not tried them yet.
