Anybody got any recommendations for somewhere to fit some tyres in South Essex?

My local place were ok when I took the Mrs' car in but I didn't like the way they were jacking the car up out the front and throwing wheels around and generally not taking as much care as I would like when I take mine in.

Thanks

Elite in Rainham, a few of us use them as they are careful and use special hub carrier rather than centre lock to balance our wheels so as to not damage the wheel centre.

Thanks for the recommendation - fairly close to me in Brentwood, and have used them previously many years ago - sounds like they are the guys to use. Thanks again.

I use Queens Park Tyres in Billericay Rich. Never had any issues there with my wheels.

Wouldn't touch Elites these days. All kids down there on work experience.

Used to used Damien at Skidmarques, Hutton who was excellent however no longer there. I'll be using The Tyre Shop in Witham from now on.

I'd recommend Pro tyres Bishops Stortford. Their chief fitter there is Pirelli trained and also fits tyres for Dunlop at BTCC rounds. Takes s lot of care.

Is that recently? I dropped my 996T for a pair of tyres. Watching from outside the bay, the fitter is careful enough and no chip on my newly refurbished wheels.
