Cheers to Simon, nice to meet you

Only problem is what was originally thought to be a leaky valve letting air out was infact a nail in the tread

Pics of teh nail







Also found my bonnet in my garage when I cleared a space for them, its amazing what you can find in there



Whats this lark about repairing punctures like that? Is it safe to do on low profile tyres?

That'll be fine its in the middle of the tread. Sidewall you would have had a problem.

Yup

Speedlines are still the best wheel for a GSI but I just think these look a bit more slaggish

Yeah the centres need repainting, dunno what colour though. If I do them Carabic Blue it'll match the bodywork, but the standard blue they come in would go with my blue engine etc & blue calipers

Can't decide

Might strip them & see how they look, my guess is they will look OK

Can always paint them carabic blue afterwards

Im not keen on the idea of painting them black!
