Able to choose tyre in own phone at leisure. Normally have to phone around when tyre fitting places are open. It was just so easy.
The website was easy to use and informative. I was able to identify top performance tyres for my car at the best price by far. When I went to the garage at the designated time, I was afforded a friendly service and the tyres were fitted immediately. Topmarks to all involved.
I will recommend to everyone. Would have used service before and will definately use again. Thank you.
An excellent website that took the hassle out of searching for tyres and fitters. All you needed to know was your car registration and the website would do the rest.
Great for people who are busy and short on time.
Blackcircles tyres are the best I have found price wise & for customer service - from a broad selection, much better than Kwik Fit & National Tyres etc.,
The cheapest tyres I could find and served by friendly team at a local garage
Had a great overall experience with black circles. The tyre changing equipment actually broke down at the fitting garage and black circles actually contacted me before the garage did in order to move the fitting. I just picked up my tyres and went to the alternative garage, all organised by black circles.
One thing is to watch your order on the website carefully ... It wasn't clear that I had included fitting ... Was at the check out and hadn't selected a fitting garage for some reason. Had to back track and make sure I went through all the steps.
A coffee machine would be welcome for those who wait for work to be done.
I have previously used Black Circles and was happy with the service so returned to buy another set of tyres. This time I was looking for a specific tyre and initially only saw one speed rated H. This seemed fine as the rating goes up to 130mph and my car does not go anywhere near that speed. The fitting garage contacted Black Circles who in turn contacted me to suggest that I need a V rated tyre as the speed rating includes a load rating also and there may be implications with my insurer should I be involved in an accident. The V rated tyre was on the website but not next to the H rated one instead it was at the bottom of the webpage and I missed it! Black Circles were happy to exchange before the fitting date but I would have to pay an additional £13 delivery. I decided that would make the tyres too expensive so I opted to keep the H rated ones. However Black Circles insisted I sign a waiver at the garage to avoid any blame etc......The car was MOT'd the next day and passed.
As tyre technology/ratings, labelling etc., become increasing more complicated I suggest that the website keep pace. Group tyres of the same type in one place and provide sufficient information so that the lay person cannot go wrong. If that includes warnings about ratings, legislation then so be it. Internet purchasing is great when it works but be warned it currently cannot replace the expert standing next to you in the garage!
I was looking for the best price for replacement Michelin tyres and found Blackcircles.com could beat most on-line. I selected the local fitter and received a further discount. I was able to book a time to suit myself which was confirmed by email. When I arrived at the garage (just 1.5 miles away) they confirmed my order and fitted within the hour. The price included fitting and balancing, the tyres were genuine and the exact spec ordered. I'll definitely use this service again.
No worries, paid for the tyres online - price includes fitting & balancing. Turned up on the day & the job was done within an hour. I'll be using them again as long as the prices stay reasonable.
from speaking to an advisor deciding which tyres to purchase
to tyres being fitted ,you cant fault this service ,i would recommend
to everyone ,you get a great product plus at a very good price
tell me what more do you need , thankyou
From first seeing the website to driving away with the new tyres fitted, this was a smooth, slick and professional operation. The prices were the best and the fitters fast and professional (even cleaning fingermarks off the wheels after fitting the new tyres. I shall definitely be going back to blackcircles when I need more tyres.
Easy to use, convenient fitting location, quick service, well recommended! No problems at all.
how do you know who i am to win the prize , unless the url has a hidden code

I could not be happier, arranged appointment locally and 4 tyres were fitted in an hour. Good price and good offers as well.
Really simple user friendly website - ordered online and paid on Thursday, tyres were shipped to my local garage and fitted on Tuesday. Excellent service, wouldn't hesitate to use again and thoroughly recommend!
Their mobile site was not working properly (not taking payments), so I phoned instead. The lady (Anne) who took the call was very helpful & apologised about the website. As I had all the details of what I needed it was a quick & easy call. Anne even phoned through to Concorde Auto centre (who were also very good) for me to see if they still had the appointment slot available that I had tried to get the day before, this was the next day. All in all a really good experience.
It was great my only hitch was I had to wait a few hours for my car to be ready, as the garage was quite busy.
It was very easy and very quick to find and order my tyres. The choice of local garages was exceptional and the price unbeatable. Would certainly recommend without hesitation Quick easy and cheap go for it. .
Found the tyre for my car easily on black circles by simply entering my registration number, which produced a selection of suitable tyres for my vehicle .
Then it was simply a matter of choosing a fitting centre convenient to me ,and a suitable time to have the tyre fitted .
Emails updating me of the process kept me up to date with my order which was reassuring .
All in all a very smooth and painless process ,
and great value which is most important .
Will definitely use black circles in the future .
Great idea,didn't have to leave the house to buy. Turned. up at garage, expected and job done
Good price and effortless booking process, fitted at local garage on an afternoon of my chosing. What's not to like.
Prepping my bike for a track day 3 days later unfortunately found a pin in rear tyre (Z rated so can't be repaired) panic? no, ordered new one from black circles 11.30am delivered 12.15pm next day how's that for service. Fitted scrubbed and ready to go in 2 days can't better that. Had a great time thanks to black circles. Many thanks to all including the courier driver. John.
My first purchase with Blackcircles. Had no problem at all. Good range of tyres to select from. With various offers the price can be very attractive. I bought my tyres with MOT for fiver offer. My MOT is due next year so will have to wait to recover the savings. Good network of fitting centres and service at fitting centre was satisfactory. I have rated 4 starts because not sure how the experience will be at the time of claiming back the MOT cost next year. As of now everything was smooth and quick.
Great experience from start to finish, website was simple to use and the prices were very competitive. Fitting centre were very efficient and I had the car back in under an hour. Cannot fault.
I needed some new tyres for my car. I wanted to be able to compare different tyres, choose a suitable fitting location somewhere I hadn't been before, and I wanted to make sure I was getting good value. Booking on blackcircles.com was quick and easy, and the garage were ready and waiting for me at the appointed time. I also ran a quick price comparison, so I was also confident that I was getting good value. I'm very happy with the service and I would recommend it.
The Tyres I put on would have cost me £140 at my fitters in Cardiff. Through Black circles and CSMA discount £96 for the same tyres £44 saving. With flexibility of fitting I was able to have them fitted in Worcester while I attended a Business meeting.
Brilliant
Good range, good prices and fitting (Protyre Warwick) was friendly and easy.
When everything goes according to plan, as it did, and the experience is good you will use the company again. Although Blackcircles are a tyre wholesaler they have to ensure that the garage that fits the tyres is 'up to scratch'. The one I visited was more than satisfactory.
Blackcircles supply tyres that are up to 5 years old and claim that their trade association approve of this. The British Tyre Manufacturers Association recommend that tyres are changed between 5 and 7 years after manufacture. Blackcircles will do nothing if you complain after the tyres are fitted. If you use this company check the date stamp on the tyres BEFORE they are fitted and if you make enough of a fuss they will offer to take them back.
Five star transaction with great savings and excellent communication
After numerous problems using several 'chains' this is my second order using Black Circles and being fitted by Lenwoods Garage in Swaffham...an excellent and speedy service. I'll be back!
Easy and pleasant transaction no problems the garage I chose was excellent.
Ordered 2 new goodyear tyres for my car at a garage within 3 miles of where i was staying at the weekend . tyres and service from blackcircle and the garage itself were excellent . would use again and highly recommend
Better value than the competition and delivered in a speedy, helpful, efficient manner. I'd recommend them if you ever need a tyre changing.
Having used Blackcircle many times, the process always works perfectly - tyres supplied and fitted at the pre-aranged schedule. Efficient, no-fuss experience. Before this purchase, I went through the AA to supply the tyres. The AA were cheaper, but when I arrived at the National Tyres fitting centre as used by the AA, their compressor was not working and they couldn't fit the tyres. Nobody called me, so a completely wasted journey. So I returned to Blackcircle. I repeat that I have never had any problem with Blackcircle. Excellent.
Great experience.
The website helps you find the correct tyre size and then helps you with recommended tyres.
Prices easy to understand and you can pay for fully fitted, with the tyres being delivered to the garage of your choice or just to have the tyres delivered to your home, which is cheaper.
Booking of garage for date I wanted was a breeze, they even include a map to help you find the place.
Many methods of payment.
Once order complete and booking made at garage Blackcircles email you with time of booking and give you a named contact within Blackcircles to contact if there are any problems.
On arrival at the garage they were aware of the booking and tyres were ready. By the time I had completed the small amount of paperwork required at the garage my tyres had been changed and I could just drive away.
