Not sure if your tyres a road legal but want to check. It simple and straight forward to do using a 20p coin. By placing a 20p coin in the tread of your tyre depending on the depth compared to the 20p coin you can determine if you need new tyres. Follow the video below to work out your tyre depth using a 20p coin.
Woke up to a flat tyre, thought I could get the spare on and get it to a garage but turns out I cant and the tyre wont budge. Quick Google and there are Driveway tyres. I'm already thinking i'm going to have to wait all day, and it's going to cost more than the garage........ how wrong was I:
I call and speak to John, who said he's got a job on but he'll buzz me back in half hour.
-10 minutes later his colleague Mike is on the phone, asking what tyre I need and what my address is.
-1 hour later, Mike is on my driveway jacking my car up, armed with a new tyre just in case its needed.
-40 mins later, my tyre has been repaired with no new tyre needed. £25 charge. All whilst having a laugh about the other cars on my driveway.
£25 and 2 hours of time and the car is as good as new. Now would that have happened if I went to a garage? NO! I'd be sat waiting my turn, only to be told the tyre is not repairable and I need a new tyre at a cost (and they probably can't get it today!)
And of course, good service is not good service if it just happens once....... so when the Mrs needed a tyre after a blowout; we call Mike and see if he can help. Yet again, within the hour he's on the drive jacking up the car with a spare tyre ready to go. We were expecting to pay over the odds given the quick & convenient service, but the tyre worked out cheaper than going to the usual garage!
Fast working, honest, funny, great at keeping you informed of ETA's AND cost competitive: I would not fail to recommend John & Mike to anybody. They are the spirit of small Welsh business and should be your go to for tyres and tyre repairs!
All the best with the business guys, Kieran and Bianca!
I needed my locking wheel nuts removed, I phoned Jon and he was very helpful and friendly. He kept me updated with everything in a very clear way and I can't recommend him enough
TomosD-1 - 5 ★ YellThey were very friendly, honest and quick to respond. I had a puncture that was not only repaired in good time but was repaired instead of having to have a new tyre on their recommendation. Absolutely great service and value for money.

GoldLight92-1 - 5 ★ YellI can't recommend this company highly enough. Last time I needed a tyre Michael offered to pick me up from work to take me to my abandoned car save me getting a cab. Yesterday I rang to book for today. Id returned home from holiday to a flat. I booked in and he asked how I planned to get my car to work. When I said I'd get a friend to put the spare on, he offered to come pump my tyre to get me through to Monday. Within two hours, Michael was at my house, ON HIS DAY OFF, to pump my tyre. Simply to be kind and helpful. Super efficient service today fixing my puncture. Always honest, always reliable, always value for money. Thorough service (he checked my other tyres) and super friendly with it. Seriously, for someone like me who fears garages, they are the ideal company!! Hassle free and efficient. I'll say it again, I cannot recommend them highly enough!!
