Event Tyres, what a load of non event tyre cowboys

Sorry to hear about the poor service and ripoff tyres you received from Event Tyres OP.

A lesson to us all

Hmm, reading this I reckon I'll avoid Event Tyres. Always good to be forewarned about a possible rip off!

Maybe something has changed with the company, I like others have had a good experience in the past but this is shocking.

Event Tyres 0800 810 0972

Because of this review I will now avoid Event Tyres when I fit Kormoran not Michelin tyres to my car.

I want some event tyres as I like to be different. Do they do 115/55/11's??

Event Tyres do sound like a worry. Sorry to hear about your troubles OP

Its a shame to hear about the shoddy service you've received. The 2 times I've used them in the past I've not had a problem.

To provide a bit of balance, I used them for tyres for my Forester and they provided the exact tyres I ordered and for £20 less per tyre than anyone else.

Mind you I made sure I ordered specifically what I needed on the web site and didn't leave it to my wife to try and do it over the phone, plus I made sure I was there when they came to fit it.

This. I had a tyre fitted by them on new years eve as they had what I wanted in stock and could do it that day so I didn't have to drive for long on a space saver. They came when they said they would and did a good job.

This forums bandwagon jumping after hearing only one side of a story is pretty bad sometimes and this seems to be a prime example.
