Before going on the Hullavington track day later this month I want some tyres swapped over.
Can anyone suggest a good/cheap local tyre fitter to do this?
Last time I had them done it was £12/cover which struck me as not particularly cheap.
Someone suggested Central Tyres in Boulton Road off Rose Kiln Lane?
Thanks in anticipation.
Cheers, Pewe.

AC Mechanics on the Loverock Road will do this for you too.

They don't go mad on the charging - they're doing a set for me next week.

Not exactly local but not far from Reading... Auto Craft just outside Kingsclere fitted some tyres for me for £6.25 + vat each so a total of £30. They did a good job, didn't scratch anything, all balanced and even set the pressures to the correct 31psi rather than the generic 35+psi that most places seem to put in tyres regardless of the car they are going on. Good guys.
