Chesterfield - Wheel Alignment Recommendations


Abz

Recommended Posts

People of Derbyshire, I shall be in Chesterfield this weekend & beginning of next week. I have 2 jobs which I need doing on the Type R while I am at the in laws & was hoping someone could recommend me a garage to carry out laser wheel alignment & also change over some tyres which I am ordering from camskills.

 

Does not have to be in Chesterfield but ideally in close proximity of the little town. :)

 

 

Thanks in advance.

You could try Gordons tyres located in wakefield

I had my laser wheel alignment done on the supra there around november 2007 time. Changed me less than £30 (although would think it would be nearer £40-£50 with extra VAT and inflation). They spent over an hour trying to free up the siezed rear camber adjusters and still only charged me for the half hour it normally takes for a wheel alignment. Also got them to input the bespoke wheel alignment values from this site IIRC it was the LANCE alignment data, even though they had my supra details available on the machine. I know its not that close to chesterfield but its literally just off junction 40 of the M1. Plus they have a free vend coffee machine ;)

If you want somewhere a little closer to chesterfield

Dexel Tyre and Auto centre do wheel alignment. I have never used them for this service, however I normally get my tyres changed there (sometimes bought from)/balanced/punctures repaired and I have always had a first class service from them. But like I said I don't know how good wheel alignment service is, so you would be possibly taking a risk.

Thanks Gaz, I'll give them a call. Looks like they have the right machine on their website.

Wakefield is a little far dude, I remember I got stuck there once about 7 years ago, don't fancy going back :D

 

You could give these a try, never used them myself as they are in Chesterfield and I'm in Mansfield but people have said good things!

I normally tend to avoid ATS branches but I'll give them a call, thanks dude. :)

Thank you, that seems pretty close might just call in and see what machine they have & what they are like. :)

 

Oh your in-laws are from chesterfield........ unlucky :p

What do you mean unlucky? I live in London dude so it's brilliant! :D

 

Even though I don't get to see them that often they are actually awesome in laws.
