Bracknell Tyre and Battery, they've never damaged any of my wheels and I must have had 16+ tyres fitted.

Might be worth explaining that they're doing it because the last place ttted the wheel though to be sure.
yes

Never go anywhere else with all the family cars, friendly, helpfull and cant be beaten on price.

yes Another suppporter here, although the guys who work there are a bit odd smile Good for alloy re-furbs too.
laugh I know exactly what you mean Dave, but if they are taking good care its something Im prepared to put up with!, Guy with the curly long hair who does the counter biz amazes me, constantly answering phones, scribbling orders on the blotter, serving customers AND tyre fitting, sure he could squeeze in a spot of juggling if he really tried !!
yes ah well, might as well add my 2p! Always take mine there. Get there extra early on a saturday though - always busy busy busy. I agree about the guy with the curly hair - I think he's the owner and that's his M3 outside.
I called up a few days before last time to let them know I was coming and when I got there, the usual melee was in place. Between a phone call conversation he was having, I said "Hi, I need two Pzero Rosso's..." He says, "235/40 18's isn't it?" biggrin
Used to use B'nell tyre and battery - now use Total Tyres in Binfield who are much the same in terms of service but usually slightly cheaper in terms of cost.........

My local Central Tyres near Blackwater (just up from Sandhurst and Camberley) have always been brilliant. They'll often swap tyres and/or wheels for some beer tokens and have regularly gone the extra mile on my Corrado's aging and porous rims, buffing them up and applying copious rimseal, even to the point of having the same tyre on and off a couple of times until the rim holds the air in. They are really top blokes. thumbup

Edit: They acknowledge that they can very much be beaten on price though, so I either use Black Circles and specify them as fitters, or else use Bracknell Tyres (another vote there) when I have time to wait around for ages as they're always so busy.

I can't remember the price as some time ago but Martin's did some for me.

But as the young girl said, 'I was pleasantly surprised'!
