Hahahahahahahahahaha fuck me, of course I had to be careless and hit a kerb so hard I got a flat tyre on top of everything else... perfect timing...
Luckily roadside assist came very quickly but now I need to get a new tyre within 2 days 😠anyone have tips on how to find a good tyre shop? I have no frigging idea. Need it done pretty quickly...
Unless you’ve got a mechanic that you usually go to on a regular basis see if there’s a Bob Jane Tmart near you?
Edit: also if cost isn’t an issue you can also maybe try to get someone out to come see you.
Mobile Tyre shop seems to have good reviews
Haven't found a mechanic for this car yet (used to use my old work's one when I was working there, it's too far). Thanks for the rec. Do you think they'll be able to have a quick squizz at the undercarriage to let me know if there's been any additional damage? I'm planning on a long drive over the holidays...
I’m not sure about the mobile one.
Bob Jane checked all my wheels when I got a flat and did a realignment and whatever is standard.
Could ring them up and see if they’ll be able to check for damage on the undercarriage when they change the tyre over.
