Come on Martin. You know it is a good move to get your baby moving upstairs and downstairs.
Buy some winters for Gawd's sake. You've got the wheels. Now rubber them up. :grin:

You won't believe this.

Wheels have been delivered by SteveP. THANKS STEVE. Now the tyre fitter says he might not be able to store my Monzas as he probably has no space and I have no room in my house! FCUK!

I could cry! :cry:

Try a Kwik Fit depot. I'm sure they were advertising a tyre storage service for £45 a year. Maybe you had to get the tyres off them though

Nooo. Not possible. It is a hospital and my office or clinic room can't be filled with wheels and tyres!

Made room at home just now. What a drama. Just for wheels. So I'll store the Monza Shadows. I've already sold the Bridgestones.
What a relief.
Or why or why did I join a forum. Running out of room, money (well not for a few years :grin:) and sense.

Yes Kwik Fit do this.
They don't keep them on site though, they have a central storage depot somewhere, that's why they need a few days notice when refitting the summers.
