  "seo_desc": "Tyres in Derby fitted at home, at work or at a local garage. Compare brands for your size, see the fitted price first, then book across the city.",
  "lead": "Derby is an engineering city on the A38 and the A52, a short hop from the M1 and right on the edge of the Peak District. Compare tyres for your car, have them fitted at home in Mickleover or Allestree or at work, or book a garage nearby, with the price shown before you pay.",
  "driving": [
    "The A38 runs straight through the west of Derby, and its junctions at Kingsway, Markeaton and Little Eaton have been rebuilt to take the city's growing traffic. Fast dual carriageway miles followed by queues at the junctions are the typical commute here, which wears the front tyres more than the rears.",
    "Rolls-Royce, Toyota at Burnaston and the rail engineering firms make Derby a city of shift workers, and plenty of them drive at night and in the early morning. Cold mornings, wet roads and darkness all make tyre condition matter, so check tread and pressures before the winter clocks change.",
    "Derby does not have a Clean Air Zone charge for drivers. Head north up the A6 through Belper and Matlock and you are in the Derwent Valley and the Peak District, where steep lanes and changeable weather reward good grip."
  ],
  "mobile": "Most Derby suburbs have drives or quiet streets, and the large employers have car parks where a fitter can work with permission. Choose where the car will be, add any access notes, and the fitter brings your tyres, fits and balances them by the car and takes away the old ones.",
  "workshop": "Would you rather visit a garage? Workshops on the network around Derby list their distance and their fitted price before you book. A workshop is the better choice for alignment if the steering wheel sits off-centre.",

  "team": "We love Derby because it builds things that move. Jet engines, trains and cars all come out of this city, and people here know a well-made machine when they see one. It is friendly, practical and close to some of the best countryside in England, and we think it deserves a tyre fitting as well engineered as everything else it makes.",

      "q": "When should I fit new tyres before winter?",
