just went through yellow pages and out of the 8 local tyre shops-which included national tyres and 2 kwik fit stations, non could balance solid centered wheels. :wall::wall::wall::wall::wall:

Anyone in Kent/London area that can help?



edit:thread closed. finally found a kwik fit that does balancing!

national tyres DO them.just had mine done.they might not like doing them as its sometimes a pain,to put the centre-thing on the machine etc. dont know why though,it only takes 5 mins
ahh-maybe they wont do it for you,as you never bought them there.

the national tyres i went to clearly said they didnt do them - theres no need to lie about it. funny thing was a lot of the garage/tyre places i went to and ringed up they had no idea about solid center alloys and were like "wtf, you must be a on different planet...":homme:
