Kwik fit are a bunch of muppets, said my tracking was out on my van, its worse now than before they touched it, will never ever go to them for anything.
I didnt take it back tbh as i didnt want them near it again.

Servicing or not as the case maybe and saying work needed doing when it didnt.

I reckon you'd be OK with tyres, just dont ask them to do anything else...

Of course I realise theres probably good and bad Kwik fits like everything, but I still wouldnt take my car to one to get it serviced, never have never will.

Yeh I wouldn't let them near the engine or anything. I've got a guy I trust for that. But fitting tyres you can't go too far wrong can you....

they can (and most likely will) feck up the balancing, they are good at that so I've herd...... but as fizz said, they are a franchise so you'll get good and bad ones

TBH, tyres are bit suspect by them as well, you always need tracking whatever you take in.

Use them at your peril :(
