I went to Boro tyres today as I had noticed that two tyres had metal objects in them. Not wanting to pull them out at home just in case they had punctured the tyres I went to the tyre fitters.

They inspected both tyres that were affected, and was told after about 10 mins that both tyres were ok - no damage - no punctures and no charge :T

So credit where credit is due thanks Boro Tyres Driffield branch, saved me a good £140 + if it had been two new tyres or £34 if it had been two puncture repairs.

    Wouldnt most places do the same.

    I used to work at atyre fitters in the 80s and we would have done the same.

    I went to ATS in Norwich with the same thing a few months back with the same result as yourself

    You would hope they would do the same, but I would also imagine some would also say you needed a repair for an extra few bob if business had been slow.

    I would have happily paid for their time but was told naah dont worry about it, hence my praise for their honesty and helpfull ness :T

    My local garage. Been using them for 15 years.

    That'll be my mate Paul who probably did it if he had short black hair.
