Nice fresh MOT at 8.30 this morning, and no indicators when i drove home - but the hazards work. Oh and the vibration is getting worse between 45 and 60mph!

Anyone know if kwik-fit and to be trusted when it comes to balancing wheels?? Only place open around here on a sunday?

i wouldnt let my local shitfix within 10foot of my car, when took my exs car their for tyres, they left the wheelnuts loose, scuffed the paint on the sills, and to top it off, they fitted rotational tyres the wrong way. i go compensation though

im sure youll be fine, just check your nuts afterwards

I wouldn't go near quickfit either!!
Dad had 2 new tyres on his car, next day one was flat. They didn't fit it right, but said there was another nail in it. Bit of a coincidence... they also charge way too much and don't care about your car at all.

I took my car to this garage near me, that does tyres for the tracking. He didn't charge me for it! The man who went roundto fetch my mini put covres down all over it, and parked it well out of the way for me so no one on the carpark would damage it! because they always knock my car on the carparks
Also they were realy carefull when putting it on the ramps, when I took it in they said they would look after it for me because he was into old Mini's. I supose that's a bonus these days, like I said quickfit don't seem to care about the car at all.
