Great service without an appointment, puncture repair completed promptly, all good!!
I’ve been going to protyre Wimborne for many years, they are great very helpful, this time I needed 3 new tyres, Andrew was excellent extremely friendly and helpful got it sorted in no time , thankfully 😅
I am extremely disappointed with the lack of empathy and professionalism at this branch. Today, I got a puncture in a remote, wooded area. I managed a temporary fix, but the tyre is losing air rapidly. I found this shop on Google and rushed here, arriving at 17:20—a full 10 minutes before their official closing time.
I politely explained my situation and begged them to help me, as I still have a 15-mile drive ahead of me to get home safely. They flatly refused, claiming they were already closed, and told me to come back tomorrow. To make matters worse, they directed me to "another tyre shop just two streets away" that they claimed was still open. I trusted them and went there, only to find it completely closed—something they undoubtedly already knew. They simply lied to get rid of me.
Leaving someone stranded in a vulnerable situation when you still have 10 minutes left on the clock shows a complete lack of basic humanity and customer care. I definitely do not recommend them.

Incredible service. The staff were welcoming, friendly, eager to help and I could not have asked for more.
All staff very helpful and sorted out the problem with my flat tyre very quickly and replaced it fast with a decent tyre I could afford .Thankyou so much for your speedy service .

If you are looking for an off-centred steering wheel and gaslighting, then this is the place for you. If you want your wheels aligned correctly, I would steer well clear.
Took my car in for alignment as the steering wheel was off centre. Once the car was handed back, it was immediately obvious that the problem still existed and was actually worse. I drove straight back, expecting them to offer to have a look again. What actually happened was that they gaslit me into thinking there was something wrong with the car and refused to correct the mistake, falsely claiming the car's computer systems made it impossible to centre.
Another, better, local firm has just sorted it in 20 minutes, so it would seem that the car is actually fine.
Absolutely do not recommend this branch, due to both their apparent inability to align wheels correctly, and their appalling attitude towards customers.

Booked online via Protyre website whilst being recovered found a local branch with stock able to fit next day. Using the main site I expect timings to be updated etc. Booked in for 08:30, surprising for a Bank holiday but at the same time whilst in the situation I was in not going to argue.
When I got there branch didn't open until 9:30. Whomever opened up, drove up in his car like he stole it. Gave sass about the time, said should have checked the branches own website. Which when you look at it they can't even spell Wimborne correctly so that gives me so much confidence.
Then he proceeded to walk up to staff who where waiting in their vehicles and b!tch about people booking in too early! Seriously, do it in private not in front of customers.
General attitude problem and after speaking to a few others it's seemingly a common consensus. Will not use again!

Efficient courteous professional service. Pricing seems very fair. New tyres fitted at agreed time.
Great to find staff that are knowledgeable, keen to assist. Listening to them dealing with other enquiries confirmed this.
