Very happy, will come againMatt RockeMy car was showing signs of having a puncture. Popped into Tyre spot Durham this afternoon. Puncture couldn’t be repaired. Mechanic showed us that a nail had gone into tyre. Asked what I wanted to do and I told him I would like a new tyre. I didn’t feel pressured into them doing it or going for the most expensive. I would highly recommend this place. Lovely staff. Thank you for your service.Jayne Wadge
