Hells LB! For that price it is worth my while to drive down!! I seriously think I'll get my winter rims mounted with GSD3s down there.

Yeah, I had full set done and it cost me about 350 notes from them....they are very very good indeed, know their stuff, especially about the wheels. They pointed out a scratch on one of my alloys before they did any work on it so I didn't think they'd scratched a spoke. I was very impressed they even knew there was a risk to the spokes.

I'd give them 15 out of 10...and I'll never go anywhere else.

Drove 40 miles to be sure of not getting damaged rims and it was worth it, two rear SO2's

Used Bracknell Tyres once for balancing - which they totally messed up.
Other than that one exception, I've used Roadwheel in Bagshot for 22-years. Great bunch. They'll listen to any special requirements that you have and offer very competitive prices - quoted me

Yup - i recommend bracknell. it's a fair drive for me to get to them, but worth it. they do get very very busy at the weekends though.

It looks as though it's worth driving the 60 or so miles to Bracknell when I need my tyres changing.

Can anybody tell me exactly where in bracknell they are?

Kelvin,

I use Newdigate Tyres, who are just down the road from the plough. They are very good, but I'm not sure if they can match the price.

Thanks Rob

I am looking for tyre fitters that we can trust rather than getting the absolute lowest price.

I will give Newdigate a ring when mine need replacing
