Three PS3's, one exalto OK?
« on: 01 August 2011, 12:32 »
I have two PS3's at the front and two Exaltos at the rear and one Exalto has a puncture. So not wanting to fork out for two new tyres to have a matching set all-round I am wondering about replacing the Exalto with a hole in it with a PS3 (as I can't find exaltos anywhere).

Will this be safe to do and it will it matter much about tread being lower on old exalto vs new PS3?

Playstation 3's would be more expensive than Pilot Sport 3's, plus more importantly they're not round enough. :)

What car? 

Ideally you should run tyres in pairs, or as a matched set on 4WD, but if it's a Golf3 none of these rules apply as you can use any old tyre as a fender.
Just because you're offended doesn't make you right.

A playstation 3 would be better than a playstation 2 though thanks to more roundness

Apparently it's in a place that can't be repaired according to MOT guy. I haven't even found the nail yet!
