Hi All,

I've just got a set of BFG MT from the guys at Nene Valley and following a slight problem they've gone the extra mile to help sort it out.

Next day delivery, quick service, right price etc.

Very helpful as well.

I got my All Terrains there.  Having spoken to them, it seemed worth driving up to Northampton (from Surrey) to get them.

They tried about 4 different sizes on in a row, to see what they looked like & whether they would rub.  All in all I was there probably an hour and a half.  And then they charged me a better price than most other places, despite all the time they'd put into it.

I'll definitely go back when I need more!

Yep, I'd go along with all these comments. Got my BFG MT's and rims from them at the LRO show a couple of years ago. Very friendly, excellent service and yes..... they know what a torque wrench is! I was so pleased with they way I was treated I rang them the following week to thank them. I am a firm believer in praise where it's due. It just helps to encourage them to do more of the same.

yep very good service, even swapped me a rim  free of charge with part worn 7.5 to match new ones as old spare was only a 6.5.
very rare to find companys that like dealing with LR's rather then just using LR's to make money.

they are great blokes and i know the farmer next door so i get them evne cheeper as they some times forget to put the part worn tyres on the lorry and chuck them over the fence (so to speak) :lol:

i got a set of 4 205/16 A/Ts fitted and a 31/10.50/15 on a rim for £60 all part worn (less than 1000 miles on the 205/16 and only as a spare on the 31/10.50/15)

and i also got a set of 31/10.50/15 Dick Cepek M/Ts of a east midlands electricity board 130 which was written of from them after they sold the landy to the farmer next door

Yep, fully agree. Gary and crew are the best when it comes to tyres and will happily go that extra mile to make sure everthing's right.

I have always used Gary and his chaps since I brought my first Disco.

With my old 200 tdi, I ordered some tyres and was told to pop in a couple of days later. When I got there the tyres were unavailable. At cost to Nene 4X4 Gary offered me a better tyre for my disco for the same price as the ones I had ordered. Try getting that at ATS!!!!!!

Will always go back there for my tyres.

Glad you hear everyone has got good things to say about them, but when I got my Cooper Discoverer tyres for the Disco about a month ago they were the most expensive place I tried (out of about 8-10 suppliers), and although very friendly they insisted that the tyre didn't exist in my standard Disco size so priced for an 'alternative' size that would fit.... despite every other place having the actual size I wanted!!

Very nice blokes tho!

Just want to add to what people have said...

Fantastic place to get tyres...offer better prices and MUCH better service than any other place i have been to. Also as mentioned, theonly palce I have seen use a torque wrench and not just an air gun to do the wheel nuts. I shall be returning when I need more/replacement tyres.

Had a slight problem when one of my wheels wasnt balanced perfectly, took it back in, and they dropped what they were doing to rebalance them and send me on my way.

Well Recomended!  :D

Yep, agree with all good comments about these guys well worth the half hour drive from mine. Got some goodyear ATR for my missus freelander today very very well priced fitted and nice guys,have used them for tyres on my disco as well. If you want tyres go to them, your mad if you go anywhere else!
