[debse30]

Sorry didn't reply to other thread...computer was being used by 'student' sister!! Thanks for all your replies scott and other guys xxx

[SCOTT325SE]

Doesnt say a brand name or anything?

I'll get my detective cap on and see what we can get ya.

[DAN]

for a budget nankang your looking at about Ԛ£44 from mytyres.co.uk in the size your after

[DAN]

and one more thing, if your in harlow, have you thought about taking it to Xtreme?

ok ok, i know they are a bunch of bellends, but, i am sure they would help a damzel in distress

[SCOTT325SE]

I was just about to post the same thing about the nangkang!

[andyp]

have you taken it to a tyre shop yet as it might only be a puncture that needs fixing, or even leaking from the rim of the tyre but they will tell you BUT dont go to kwik-fit as they will tell you that you need a new car.

[SCOTT325SE]

Andy has a valid point. It could be a leaky valve or somethign equally silly.

[johnono]

true, the inner valve that screws into the outer barrel could wll be open a touch, get it checked for sure , coz if it pops off, its troube

[SCOTT325SE]

I had three valves go on a set of 17s that came with the sport. Had to drive 3 miles on the tyres with 0 psi. wouldnt advise it!

[Richy325iTouring]

i had a rear tyre that was flat on my 15s did realise untill i came to a roundabout and the backend came round for no reason.
crawled up the bypass untill i gotto a garage in town.
i was not amussed and palyed havac with my boss to sort the fitter out as they kept droping screws.

Cpl puntures a month was starting to pi$$ me off a bit

[Moofles]

a new car, lmao!

[debse30]

arrrgh... xtreme!!! to go to them it would be.....have you seen the cars they have on their forecourt?? Audiis imprezas etc... and can't drive it coz its drivers side???

[debse30]

haha moofles!!! Yeah next car hopefully e36 with mtech bodykit i wish xxx

[Moofles]

don't mention e36's here

the "new car" thing was referring to andy p's comment about kwik fit, i just realised it wasn't too obvious, lol

[billgatese30]

you don't seem to be having much luck this week do you...never mind the way i see it is that all your bad luck is here now so that the next few years should be all of happy motoring...i hope anyway. i'm sure it'll all be sorted soon, especially as we are trying to help you out where possible.

[debse30]

arrh thank you chris..you know you guys are lovely...well 99% What shall i do tho, put the replacement on or find out if problem is more than just a flat which sems to be the case???

[billgatese30]

depends on how much cash you have lying spare, (if like me that'll be into the minus figures) and how much a replacement tyre is. it also depends on how quickly the tyre is deflating.

[SCOTT325SE]

get kwik fat to check the valve out 1st, or, if you are organised, take the tyre off in the nite and put the spare on. then, get it pumped up and when you have a bath in the night, immerse the tyre in the bath water (after you have bathed) and see if its leaking air anywhere. my guess is it will come from the valve, OR, if the alloy is peeling its laquer, it will come from the rim. Its exactly the same thing they will do at a tyre centre, so you may as well know yourself.

[billgatese30]

good thinking batman, was coinsidering the bicycle tyre check but it never occured to use the bath.....silly boy

[debse30]

ok same cash flow as you maybe worse!! Gotta check tyre tomorrow...hope car is fine after early march!! Lost me licence 6 years ago (ex said i was on his insurance but wasn't!!) so had to change name and apply again so i am only poxy provisional again at the moment. Takin test in march then BMW legal driver, but looked at as a new driver so insurance is 60 quid a month with dad on as main driver....so money NOT GOOD!!

[billgatese30]

better draw yourself a bath then...and then get the tyre in there.

[billgatese30]
