The careful tyres fitting in Sheffield??

Post by chunkychimpanzee »

Hi everyone,

This may sounds a bit odd..... I am currently looking for a place in Sheffield where can replace my tyres and balanced them without damaging my alloys. Due to the previous garage who fitted my alloys has been damaged my old alloys... In that case, I am trying to look for someone in Sheffield who can replace my tyres without damaging my alloys. Does any one know who can do a good job of that in Sheffield?

Many thanks for your help and advice... Cheers

Clever tyre fitters can do it without scratching the alloy, they just need to raise the lever a bit.

If you're really paranoid, insist the tyre fitters put ducktape round the edge of the wheel...they won't get scratched then!

Thank you people. I wish I would able to receive the opinion from 'Bradders' few days earlier.....
I took my car to the tyre place in Sheffield town few days ago. They have done a really really crappy job to it. I have to say I am really regret for taking it to them. They have scratched and made a few damaged on the inside of my alloys. I think that was happened when they replace the balance thingy. :evil:

Well, I would never ever take to them anymore. It called Tarzan's Tyres, people. Be aware!!!!
