Farken hell.
Ok so i'm going at about 30 kays an hour round this corner (left) and i yep turn then BANG. Car stalls.
What the fark?!!!! :shock:

Oh jesus, the tires ferked. Ohh no the rim. :cry:
Ok now how the fsk am i gonna change the wheel (steelie with Power star in the boot :wink: )
Go to a friends place, pick up the magna car jack. Wheel brace? How the stuff are we gonna get the wheel nuts off?!
Luckily, i still had my "emergency tool kit" in the rear pocket! :)
So, we changed the wheel with a ring spanner. 3/8" nut. All good.

Then today, got the wheel down to beaurepairs, they said ur lucky the tire didnt shread yada yada.
He pumps it up and thats it.
Phew.

So the moral of the story is;
All P-Platers are idiots.


Thanks.

How did this tyre magically loose all its air and magically be good when you take to the tyre place?

Cos he never checks his pressures. :roll: Hey willy, got any OIL or WATER in it???

Cmon people.... gotta remember to check the LOT when youre at the servo. Even ya spare (if you have one :wink:)

I check mine every week. You cant SEE when a 40 profile tyre only has 10 pounds in it... they dont look flat.
