Am currently sat in Rik Fit Tyres whilst I have two new tyres and the alignment sorted. Kwik Fit quoted me £150 for the same job - here at Rik Fit it's £130.
At Kwik Fit I was told that the two front tyres definitely needed doing and that there were cracks in my two rear tyres which could cause me problems within a month. This was all said in a cold manner which got me really scared. So I came into Rik Fit where a chap immediately took me round my car showing me what and where the problems were. He explained that the rear tyres were perfectly legal and would be fine until my MOT in Dec - cracks always begin in tyres and I didn't need to be concerned.
They had my tyres in stock (Kwik Fit didn't) and immediately fitted them. They are currently working on the alignment which apparently was "well out" and they talked to me about how that might have affected my driving and how it undoubtedly had resulted in the wear on the inside of the two front tyres.
The service at Rik Fit was absolutely fantastic and the staff were incredibly friendly. They also do a discount for those of us that work in the NHS (above cost doesn't include discount). They also do exhausts, MOTs & service (from another site on the Pershore Rd in Stirchley) and a recovery service.
Lovely staff - ran by two brothers and their best mate. I've often overlooked this place as I've assumed, wrongly, that it was a boy racer type place as there are always flash cars around but I couldn't have been more wrong. I can't recommend this place highly enough. read more
