I've just got brand new alloys, so don't want the job messing up - Anyone know of a good fitter?

Imperial Tyres on Elgin Industrial Estate are good. Also ABC in Wootton Bassett. Never had any problems with either.

Will they fit tyres that I buy off the net? Or price match camskill?

I've never done that but I reckon both would consider price matching and I'm sure ABC would fit tyres supplied from elsewhere. You can but ask!

Yep - I'll give a few places a ring/visit next week. Want to make sure I get no hassle.

Let us know how you get on - I'll be needing a pair fitted in the next few months.

Imperial price matched my Eagle F1's off tinternet. Used to buy from mytyres.co.uk and get them delivered to my pet tyre fitters (bizarrely a Quick Fit that was 2 doors down from me) but when I moved down here and hadn't established who was where, tried Imperial, said I was getting the F1's for £100 each and they offered me £105 each fitted. Job. Done. as they say.

Trust them with alloys etc too.

Thanks everyone. I'm going to pay a visit to a few of them, check prices and how careful they are. A bit daft I know, but they're brand new alloys, so no point having them scratched.

I've been using Bell's behind the Co-Op in Old Town for years. Their prices are fair I think, though I haven't actually compared anywhere else for ages.

The only place I've ever used for tyres is Bells, but the last time I bought tyres was about 3 years ago.

There are a few good places, one is Bathwick tyres, Imperial or there is a mobile fitter near me thats recommended and cheap. Want his number or are you sorted?

Yep, the number of the mobile fitter would be good; cheers Michael!

I've found the tyres that I want, so hope most places can price match camskill.
