A new Tiger Wheel & Tyre centre located just behind the Shell garage, at the corner of Rivonia and Federal roads, has just opened its doors.
The central location of the new store is well placed to servicing motorists from Sandton, Illovo, Hyde Park and Inanda.
The showroom boasts a wide range of tyres from trusted brands like Bridgestone, BFG, Continental, Goodyear, Hankook, Michelin, Velocity and Yokohama and various wheels like TSW, Racing Hart Concepts and Black Rhino.
Sales Manager, Craig Arnoldi, formerly the manager of the Rivonia store, is now proudly in charge of Tiger Wheel & Tyre Sandhurst.
Tiger Wheel & Tyre says it is determined that a tight budget should never stand between motorists and road safety. That is why the Sandhurst store offers PayJustNow and Xpress Credit for those who need flexible payment options for unforeseen expenses.
