  • old tyres

    please bin them now, thought id share my experience, was out having a blast lol, cruising down a nice hill, when the tyre on rear let go, steering went, a bit like mansels GP effort, and mounted the kerb and put the front end in a small ditch, maybe going a little quick but everything happened so quick, the wheel is now damaged amongst other things, thats about it.
    on inspection the sidewall has blown on the old tyre

    so beware and i should have known better

              Old tyres..

              These old tyres are only good for the bufty brigade who trailer their cars to and from a show and spend the day picking grass out the tread pattern...I hope that you have not done too much damage...I think you are passing on some wise wisdom to others...
