Puncture
« on: 14 October 2008, 10:58 »
Went out in the car last night and heard a clicking noise coming from the rear tyre, i immediately thought i had a nail :angry:. I got out and checked and there was no nail, just a 6inch drill bit wedged in my tyre :angry:. Its gone in at a funny angle so has shredded the cords inside :angry:. Need to order a new conti sport 2 now. Found one on blackcircles.com for £130 delivered.
Anyone know where i can get one cheaper?
Thanks

Try Camskill. I got some Goodyear F1's last year at a great price.

Let me know how they compare.

conti 2 pal, yes they have fitted tyres to all my cars 18" and 19"  wheels with no problems, just checked my bank statement, it was 125quid all in fitted and balance. They even balanced the wheels and spacers together so it was spot-on :smiley:

I ordered one today £130 delivered and my mate will fit it for free at ATS :smiley:.
Gutted though as that money was going towards my s3 intercooler, need to start saving again now :laugh:.
Should still be going on at the beginning of next month :wink:
