- If you book online give the place a ring too as when I turned up the guys at the garage weren't aware of my booking - an error in their system apparently. They still managed to fit me in despite being fully booked and managed to sort me out a lot sooner than I'd expected. Top serviceJohn RobsonAs a taxi driver I need tyres changing more often than most. I’ve been using Tyre Spot for over 4 years and the service is second to none. Always friendly and they always do a great job. I won’t go anywhere else. I highly recommend a visit to tyre spot for tyres. They also offer other services too.МайклGreat quick service and at a decent pricePeter Mcmanus
