Re Wolves OPC, they are nice enough, but I find the typical main dealer experience somewhat tiresome...explaining what you want, think needs doing to people not familiar with working on the cars, then getting it back saying 'nothing wrong' we've done a health check scenarios.....I really only use OPC due to the warranty, it's the one drawback of having a newer car under warranty Vs older cars I've had before i.e.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.
9 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.
0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

A simple task being more complicated than it needs to be !
I have a used set of Cup 2s off a previous car, that I want put onto my current GT3. Dealer I reluctantly use for other work (OPC Wolverhampton) says will 'only fit tyres supplied by us'.
Does anyone have any recommendations - clearly need someone that I can trust with the wheels, centre locks and will just do what I need, not give me some 'policy' ! Main dealers, got to love em...!
Oh, and I made it very clear I'd pay them for their time obviously...!
A lot of specialist independent places offer this. In Hertfordshire people like JZM and RPM Technik are willing to undertake this. Obviously for a fee, but brings some peace of mind especially if you have PCCB.
I suspect the other notable independents closer to you would be be able to offer the same service. And be cheaper than the OPC.

Litchfield near Tewkesbury are super careful AND have the latest Road Force balancer for that new car ride
Not cheap but if you love your car....
I've used these guys loads of times (GT cars) and can recommend.

They offer a mobile service but not for CLs. You'll have to take your car (and tyres) to them. I'm also a Wolves customer but the price for tyre changes has increased significantly in the last few months

Thanks for this, I'll check them out.

In fairness though I don't think it's just Wolves, I bought the car from Chester and had issues in the sales process as well..

Good to know and tbh not too far from me, prob about an hour, but given their reputation leaning towards this. Guess they are also used to dealing with PCCBs...
