Diddy - October 19, 2025

"Second time I've used A & A Tyres Cardiff. Excellent service and competitive tyres compare to high street tyre and online companies they offer discount when buying 2 or more tyres, yet A & A Tyres still come out cheaper without any marketing incentives. Waiting times can be long but this is communicated on there website but worth the wait."

Simon Wintle - October 11, 2025

"Got recommended to A&A for tracking by another tyre company. Absolutely fantastic, couldn't have been more happy with the work carried out and the finished results. Kept informed and shown what was being done, they apologised for the time taken, wasn't bothered because I knew it needed doing. Top notch equipment and technician, thank you very much!"

Asher Ahmad - September 11, 2025

"Took my Porsche Panamera for wheel alignment this afternoon, had the car looked at by Kevin I believe, they did a fantastic job. They were very honest and showed/told me exactly what it needed and why it needed it showing me along the way. Turns out it didn’t need alignment - and they did not charge me anything due to this. Very knowledgable in their field, and happy to explain everything, comparably reasonable in price to other local options and they’re very experienced - well worth it if you want the job done once and properly!"

"They were recommended to me by my usual classic mechanics, Body & Soul, for a puncture repair on my 53yo van. Super quick and efficient, and the final bill was a very reasonable £26.40. Would return."
