Dnk Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 I have no idea Dnk, Steve may be able to answer that. I'm currently on a hunt for a replacement tyre, one of my 3 month old Sport Maxx's has picked up a puncture and it's not repairable.. I'll have to wait for Steve to see this then, not good on the tyre front though. What size do you need ? Dunlops are sport maxx ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexM Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 Dunlop Sport Maxx 235/45/ZR17. I have a pinhole puncture right on the edge which I was advised may cause the tyre to explode when it gets hot.. won't be taking that around Anglesey! My local place has them on order but don't know when they'll be in, trying to find one for tomorrow morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They would need to know now though as they would have to go and get it from their supplier http://www.rikfit.com Edited October 15, 2009 by Dnk (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've just managed to sort something with a local supplier, £107.95 fitted, they should have it before 4pm tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnk Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 Good news Alex and a good price. Rikfit are supposed to be very competitive on price but going by what youve got it for their not that good.

AlexM Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 T.W.Tyres, Paynes Lane 11, CV21 2UH, Rugby - 01788 542292. I used them to have the original set fitted, which I bought from mytyres.co.uk. Very friendly service, but horrible tea (though it is free!). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnk Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 Thanks Alex, I only need them to supply as i use Ibrar to fit them for me so wont need their free tea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WRX-Jo Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 Alex - I've just thought you might want to stay over too. You'd be relegated to settee camping though, there is only 1 spare room/bed I'm afraid. PM with my address in its way Jo. Thanks Steve. It looks as though it might be a bit tight for us to head up on Friday after work, as it might mean us getting to you a bit late which is unfair to you, but thanks very much for the offer of letting us stay. I guess this means the spare bed is Alex's if he wants it. So if we're to come up on Saturday morning, we should be able to get to you by late morning (11-ish maybe) but could push for earlier if we pull our fingers out. It would be nice to take in a bit of Welsh scenery, so your estimate of four hours to Holyhead sounds reasonable to me. Anyone else going to be joining our mini road-trip?

AlexM Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 If I go to Steve's tomorrow night it will also be rather late, I asked him if that's acceptable but I'm quite happy to drive over in the morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveR Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 I fancy coming along but just to watch, ive found a hotel near to the circuit Y GLAN-NEIGR I'll book a room there if im not too late to join the fun What's up with the Travelodge we're all staying at Dunk (Holyhead)? £35 with my discount code. WM56351G = £15 off. What time are you guys going Saturday morning (steve, alex) ? As to what time we want to leave mine Saturday AM...Maybe leave mine mid/late morning? If we could leave mine 10am ish, we'd get loads of good roads in, 11ish we'd get a couple, 12ish we'd get maybe one. I'd prefer to leave sooner rather than later, but then I have no travelling to get to mine. I'm happy to be flexible depending on whether people felt they could get to mine for that time... Thanks Steve. It looks as though it might be a bit tight for us to head up on Friday after work, as it might mean us getting to you a bit late which is unfair to you... I've just told Alex he's ok to arrive at midnight, so it depends how "late" late is, Jo. Let us know if you still want to head up on Friday, if so we'll head off at 10ish, not we'll meet at mine 11ish and leave after a brew & after you've had chance to break from the driving, how's that?

WRX-Jo Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 I've just told Alex he's ok to arrive at midnight, so it depends how "late" late is, Jo. Thanks but I think we'd prefer not to drive up later on Friday anyway (did that last week) so it'd probably be best for us to have an early night and instead go up on Saturday morning, if that's OK. We could try to make it for 10am so as not to hold the rest of the day up, but could call on the day to update on progress. Knowing us it'd be nearer 11am; we can but try...
