Hi all,
I've had a slow puncture on my front right wheel since i got back from the 'ring a couple of weeks ago, so i took it to the garage this morning...
He took the wheel off, and there is a small bulge on the inside edge of the sidewall... it's not immediately noticeable, but it is there...
So anyway, we found the culprit to be a faulty valve (which he doesnt know how to fix?!), but regardless he said he wouldnt refit that tyre anyway due to the egg...
To make matters worse, i have Goodyear Eagle F1 tyres fitted, but these have been replaced with the Assymetric versions, so the garage said they cant get any tyres the same as mine - so i have to either replace both front or all 4 tyres.
So my questions in order are:
1. For a minor bulge in the tyre wall, is it necessary to replace the tyre?
2. Valves on Volk wheels... are they Volk specific or do any generic valves work?
3. Can anyone recommend a supplier for 1x Goodyear Eagle F1 tyre (non-assymetric). I have found one on eBay at £160, but cant find any on the usual supplier sites (camskill etc)
Cheers.
