So far so good - yesterday evening the fitter rang up to arrange a suitable timeslot. Nice and polite and had already checked the location... Tyres to be swapped over at midday so I'll let you know how it goes,

Hmmm...
(Bearing in mind that e-Tyres is a franchise so this may not affect you) I find myself writing a mixed review. The last time I used e-Tyres was in Hungerford, Berkshire. All went well and I was pleased with the result. This time I was in Telford due to work...
Good:
- Right tyres
- Fitted right way round
- Only slightly late (I was on a big industrial estate)
- Price seemed reasonable considering it was a callout
- The work was carried out while I was in work so I avoided taking a day off
Bad:
- Slight scuff to the rear passenger alloy that I spotted too late
- Two guys turned up in the van, one clearly the cheery chap who had phoned, the other a frankly dodgy looking guy who remained silent throughout
Overall verdict:
Won't be using them again unless I get caught out on a Sunday with somewhere to be on the Monday
Top Tip:
No matter who is changing the tyre(s) make sure it is done at a time when you can stand over them until the job is complete. I'm currently wondering if there is any scuffing on the inside of the wheels
