I use my local Natonal Tyres as always get good service and prices, hopefully it will stay the same

Interesting, they own "Tyres on the drive" as well, though I don't know if they always did. I don't recall their site redirecting to Halfords when I last checked a few years ago.

I used National Tyres a couple off months ago. As it happened the Hafords price was 20% less than the quote they gave me, but they matched it when I showed them the website. So, if using them, check Halfords price too.

Up here in Scotland, Halfords also bought McConechy’s Tyres at the back end of 2019.

Have to tread carefully if visiting in future, then. Wouldn't want to get a shock if they pad the bill...

Will need to track how this develops.

I'm having lots of issues after NT fitted 2 new tyres to my Honda HRV on 21-Jul, it's been very tiring, see my post "Weird fault after new tyres".

I'm not a fan of my local National Tyres branch - they are far too pushy.

Last time I bought tyres of them, the worn set had worn perfectly evenly, and they wanted to perform a "free tracking check" and a "free brake check" and something else, that it because obvious that they were on the upsell.
