Default Bracknell Tyres

Another "thumbs up" for Bracknell Tyres!

I had a slow puncture and thought better of getting it repaired. I'd always be worrying

Called them Monday and said "I need a new rear for an S2000"

Quick as a flash, the guy replied "A Bridgestone 225/50 R16 ESO2-JZ"

"Yep!" said I.

My experience with Bracknell Tyres was also good.

They fixed a puncture even tho they had got a new tyre up from the warehouse. The guy even took the time to show me the difference between OEM S02 and normal S02 (BIG difference!).

I shall be using them to replace my rapidly disappearing rubber!

I'm now down to 4 mm at the rear (10,000 miles), I will soon need some new tyres. Where are Bracnell tyres. I don't know any where in Nottingham I can trust.

I wish mine had that much. 9.5K and 2mm left.
I think this is what happens when I only use the S on the w/e. Going without VTECland for a week really takes its toll on the tyres.

A friend of mine got me a REALLY good deal on a set of rears with Bracknell tyres last year (they owed him a favour) and I have used them ever since.

Good service, they know about the S2000 (I got told off for trying to check whether they were fitting JZ's!) and good prices.
