Hello…Well Bob Jane T-Mart Adelaide what can I say? NOTHING good unfortunately!!! They were recommended to me by Adelaide Motors (Adelaide BMW) as they must have shares in the company. I paid a little over $600 each for two rear tyres, wheel balance and alignment at Bob Jane T-Marts in the city and managed to get 12000 km’s before the inner edges were shredded to less than 30% tread. I went back and they told me it was standard on BMW X5′s due to rear camber WTF they did the wheel alignment and balance – SORRY guys no excuse you ripped me off and offered no solution other than “you need a couple of new tyres” what a joke. NEVER NEVER will I go back to any BOB JANE T-Marts nation wide. They are the worst….If anyone needs a proper wheel alignment go see City Holden Adelaide and ask for Mario he’s been doing wheel alignment for 30 years and knows his stuff!!! good work Mario. I’m looking at Toyo Proxes 4 to fit 2010 SSV 20 inch 245/35 can anyone tell me if the comments re noise can be substantiated – I can’t stand road noise and this will deter me if correct.

Always better dealing face to face than over the internet thought

I am at that point of trying to get the car registered for another year and trying to find a new set of tyres. I have found cheaper tyres online but OK – what then = it seems like a pain in the bum to then try and locate someone to fit and balance these tyres and get rid of the old ones- easier said then done

Gee, I use exclusively Bob Jane in Salisbury for the last 7 years. Each time I walk in I know exactly which tyre I want. And I have my own ideas when to change the tyres. When I ask them to put the less weared tyre onto the spare wheel, I watch carefully that they put the correct tyre on. In this way, I never had problems with them. I started to use their services because I ran my car on Yokohama tyres and they were “specialists” in it, and they always had the required tyres in stock. When they gave me the price higher than I expected I pointed out that I was their loyal customer, and they usually knocked a few dollars off.

Yeah same deal here in Adelaide with Bob Jane in Salisbury. they overcharge you big time, very arrogant as well. also trying to con you into new tyres even if you still have sufficient tread left….NEVER dealing with BOB JANE EVER AGAIN…

bob Jane t mart @ Chermside are thugs. I went to them on two occasions to get my tyre repaired and when I came back to collect my tyres first time I didn’t realized they changed my tyre and when I realized they said my tyre was not raid worthy and as a favor they have given me a another second hand tyre for free, not that I was very convinced as i replaced my tyre just a year ago but didn’t bother and left it there but second time i marked my other car tyre which has done only 27ks and left with them to get the punctur repair and this time was Dunlop tyre and not to my surprise they did exactly the same thing and when I said I want my tyre back they said it’s not worthy and they wont fit it and I said thats fine as I already had my spare tyre fitted and than I went to kmart and they said it is still road worthy and they fitted it and I have done another 34ks with that tyre. I am talking pain to write this as I want people to stay away fro. Bob jane in Chermside, Qld

For me it is your own choice in where to buy good tyres for your car as soon as you search about the products and the supplier so that you will be able to know its quality.

Take care of your purchase. New cars are sensitive to mismatched tires, which is why it’s important to rotate tires as manufacturers suggest.
