- This is a review of the branch at Devon Crescent, Birtley. As far as I know they only do tyres. I could hear a drumming noise inside the car which got worse at speed. Glen said it is usually caused by wheel bearings, but I had already had the rear ones replaced. So he inspected the tyres and found that both of the rear ones had uneven wear causing flat spots . Glen quoted me a price for two tyres which was only slightly above the best price on the internet (Blackcircles). When I drove away the noise had gone. It was well worth paying a little extra for his excellent service and expertise. I would highly recommend this branch of Tyre Spot for as long as Glen is the manager.van the manGreat service the lads sorted my tyre problem out. Not up to grand prix tyre change , but not bad.Stuart AskewVery satisfied with purchase and staff.Allan Raine

- Excellent service! Had the rear tyres done about 6 weeks ago and then had to get the front ones done thanks to a slow puncture and them being rather low. So, hopefully we won't see these guys for a while (in the nicest way) but can't fault them for the work they've done!Jeni HartAttended Tyre Spot after trying others re a tyre issue but having no luck having job done there & then.
