I haven't - but what are you wanting doing?

just an interesting situation.
had a slow puncture last week (rear passenger side), took it in, they fixed it. 3 days later noticed another slow puncture (rear driver side), took it in this morning to get fixed - now needs new tyre as the inside sidewall is damamged.
only had the tyres 8 weeks!
probably fine, but cant help feeling a bit suspect....

Yes, I've used them 3 or 4 times and they've been very good. They fitted a stainless exhaust that I supplied - they made a very good job of it and FWIR only charged £20. Also supplied & fitted exhuast on my wifes car and had two sets of tyres from them. They price matched the tyres to internet prices and took real care fitting the one set to my posey alloys (unlike other places in Sheff.)
Depends what you're having done I suppose - but for tyres & exhausts I'd recommend them.

I never trust a garage - but have never had problems with on the spot tyres on Abbeydale Road.
Your situation does sound suspect. have you had a look on sheffieldforum?

Pook - no but i'll do that now.
fattatlasses - no real reason to suspect anything other than the coincidence itself, seemed like good guys but just can help but have that feeling as if ive been done.
to be fair the price for a new tyre is quite a biit cheaper than other places ive been to!

p.s. didn't see your 'slow puncture post' before I replied. Hmmm...I can see why you're suspicious. er...unless you've been driving around the streets in some of the old industrial areas (my wife picked up two punctures in quick succesion after driving down a street where there were lots of small machining scraps of metal lying about)

yeah well i live in the peaks and there a lot of farm/heavy machnery moving about which makes the roads a bit of a state. i also park near some factories in sheff, so its totally possible that i picked up two bits of scrap - just like i say, my pure yorkshire 'rip off' senses are tingling a bit!

A friend of mine uses them, says they are very good.

+1 for spot on tyres
Some of the roads near the metal recyclers in the valley can have all sorts of shavings and stuff, picked up a flat not long ago. Street sweepers need magnetic brooms!Posted 1 year ago # -
to be fair to them - they dont seem like rip off guys (dont want to suggest theyre bent or anything if they arent), just a PITA coincidence i suppose!
the joys of motoring....
