Just been to have some Tyres fitted that i ordered online. I took them to Barry Tyres in Barry of course.

Tyre House,
276-280 Holton Road,
Barry,
CF63 4HU


Tel: 01446 745888


The machine that used to get the tyre off was very good it does not touch the rim of the wheel to remove the tyre and is 1 of 3 of its type in wales. this is very good if you have some big wheels that are shiny and expensive. they can do up to 27 inch rims on this thing.

Would recommend if you are in need of a good tyre fitter that will not damage your rims.

I have found the Boys at Caerphilly Kwick Fit on Pontygwindy road very good.

I have taken my Barnby Magnesium and spun ally 3 piece wheels there they have done a perfect job for me many, many times.

The wheels are known throughout Caterham circles for being silly soft and easy to deform around the rim. But the boys take real care .

I have had horror stories from other tyre fitting outfits but the boys at this Kwick fit are faultlessin my opinion.

Just dont balme me if the whotsit hits the fan when you go there.... but I very much doubt it will smile
