Hahahahahahahahahaha fuck me, of course I had to be careless and hit a kerb so hard I got a flat tyre on top of everything else... perfect timing...
Luckily roadside assist came very quickly but now I need to get a new tyre within 2 days 😭 anyone have tips on how to find a good tyre shop? I have no frigging idea. Need it done pretty quickly...
Google the ones closest to home. Pick the one that's closest to 5 stars and lots of reviews. Get quotes from 3 of them. Pick one.
Top tier practical and logical advice. Thanks CEO. Found a few good ones close to home/work. Can't do any online bookings til Wed but I've narrowed down three to call tomorrow first thing at 8am and put in a reminder on my phone. Done.
👍
I had to use MyCar for my last flat because they were the only place open between Christmas and New Year, and they were fine. Quick, efficient, friendly.
There's one near me too that's got decent reviews, definitely one of the options I'll call tomorrow
Unless you’ve got a mechanic that you usually go to on a regular basis see if there’s a Bob Jane Tmart near you?
Edit: also if cost isn’t an issue you can also maybe try to get someone out to come see you.
Mobile Tyre shop seems to have good reviews
Haven't found a mechanic for this car yet (used to use my old work's one when I was working there, it's too far). Thanks for the rec. Do you think they'll be able to have a quick squizz at the undercarriage to let me know if there's been any additional damage? I'm planning on a long drive over the holidays...
I’m not sure about the mobile one.
Bob Jane checked all my wheels when I got a flat and did a realignment and whatever is standard.
Could ring them up and see if they’ll be able to check for damage on the undercarriage when they change the tyre over.
