if you look at the wheels in motion website, you can book at recommended centres through them. :y

Wheels in Motion.  :y

They are based in Chesham in Bucks.

They are excellent and know the Omega well.

They will give you a discount if say you are an OOF member.

Regards

You should update your details to show location and model of car.  :y

I think they franchise out services - take a look at their WWW.

I travelled from Leeds months ago,I had exactly the same problem with the front tyres,drove back with what felt like a different Miggy,and allready can see a massive difference in tyre wear.I won't hesitate if a problem were to appear again,they have the proper equipment and know the Omega,well worth the journey :y :y

I got the set up done on my Omega by a place called Princess Garage in Headingley in Leeds.  Two guys that run it are very friendly, one of them is a Mini stock racer, and he gets in a guy who sets up race vehicles and also does work for Mercedes and Vauxhall dealers.

It cost me £80, and as Cliffo B says it feels like a different car.  Still an hour and a half from you, but a lot closer than Wheels In Motion.

PM me if you want details.
