Tyre fitting in dundee

Post by simon » Wed Jun 06, 2007 11:14 am

Anyone recommend somewhere to get tyres fitted if I supply them in Dundee? Used MTS (opposite B&Q) last time and they were ok but left a mark on one wheel.

you could try Archies, they seem very good, just beside where you used to work!

Use Hectyre on strathmartine road opposite DISC. Looks like like a bit of a dump I suppose but the guy in there is fab and will not mark your alloys. I use him for everything inc elise & exige. All the "cruise" folk in town use him too and some of them have REALLY bling alloys that mark very easily. ( dont ask how I know this!! :oops: )

Hmmm. think you might be struggling there. Sure they shut up shop at around 5. In saying that, he stayed open to sort out my 355 tyre. The number is 456660.
