Thank You all & Mobile Tyre Fitting

lauralouise90

So a few weeks ago I posted asking for advice on what tyres to get and all your advice was so so useful so thank you for that.

I finally got my tyres sorted - went for some Hankooks in the end. Asking for everyone's advice definitely saved me a lot of money instead of just going for the Continental tyres straight away.

But I just wanted to post and shout out about mobile tyre fitting - I didn't even know it existed until I bought these new tyres so maybe some of your don't know about it either.

Basically I paid £1 and the ATS guys came to me at work to fit my new tyres - bargain in my eyes because I didn't have to go out of my way for the fitting.

Here's the link to it - http://www.atseuromaster.co.uk/mobile-tyre-fitting.htm I don't think they do it everywhere so best to check.

Thanks again!

I've used http://www.etyres.co.uk/ in the past and it's very convenient indeed

I take the wheels off myself (one at a time if I only have one car) and take them in for a tyre change. After having car jacked up on the sump, suspension, non-structural bodywork bending it; in fact just about anywhere the moron of the week decides to stick the jack, I no longer risk taking my car into a tyre place.

I like to do the same, I usually go to costco and am fed up being told we only fit those as a pair, or you can't have new tyres on the front they have to go on the rear, I have also had wheel trims left off.
Taking in loose wheels means less grief IMO.
