I need a couple of rears. I'm not usually too precious over tyre fitting but when a big retailer last fitted 2 fronts for me they fooked one of the valves and the pressure sensor which lead to losing almost a day in total waiting around, 3 trips back there and finally the Lotus dealer having to fix it. As such, I am after somewhere recommended who will know what they are doing to re-use the pressure sensors and use gentle hands.

Any recommendations?

My mate has a small tyre shop in Hunslet. He's a miserable sod with no people skills but a bloody good fitter. I've put it down to he's from Halifax, which is a bit close to the darkside... Haha

I always use click on tyres at Saltaire for mine. Always top work, cheap (£10/corner supplying my own tyres), and usually can price match (apart from said time when supplied my own)

Motorsport Wheels at Seacroft are good in my experience.

They do my tyres and my families tyres, and the vehicles from work. They haven't damaged anything, and are nice people, and the blokes who fit the tyres are not dummies, are into cars and take care when fitting and balancing.
