  "lead": "Hull is a flat, open port city on the north bank of the Humber, with the A63 as its front door and the Humber Bridge just upstream. Compare tyres for your car, have them fitted at home on the Avenues or in Sutton, at work, or at a local garage, and see your price before you pay.",

    "Kingston upon Hull is one of the flattest cities in England, which is good news for brakes and tyres. The challenge here is the weather. Wind off the Humber estuary and the North Sea, plenty of rain and cold winters mean wet grip and tread depth matter more than the gentle gradients suggest.",
    "The A63 Castle Street carries traffic from the M62 straight past the city centre to the docks, and it has been the focus of a major improvement scheme. Lorries heading for the port and the ferry terminal share the road with commuters, and the stop-start of the approaches wears front tyres more than the open road.",
    "Hull has no Clean Air Zone charge. Crossing the Humber Bridge to North Lincolnshire costs a toll each way, so a fitter who comes to you is often the simplest option if you live on the south side of the city."
  ],
  "mobile": "Many Hull homes have drives, and the city's flat, wide streets make kerbside work easier than in most places. The Avenues, Sutton and Kingswood are all well suited to a mobile fitting, as are the business and retail parks around the city. The fitter arrives, fits and balances your tyres on the spot and takes the old set away.",
  "workshop": "If you would rather take the car in, workshops on the network around Hull show their distance and their fitted price before you book. A workshop is the place for alignment after a pothole.",

It was UK City of Culture in 2017 and it has never stopped surprising people since. It is a city where people are honest about what they want, and we respect that.",
