jeez, that sounds scary! still, always better a rear than a front I think............not much but a bit.
that's the thing, I'm pretty ocd about checking stuff like tyres at least monthly if not weekly. both rears were in good shape and had hoped they would see me through brunty next month then get a full set and wheel refurb at the same time...........best laid plans huh.Greg, I said when the steel bracing starts to show through you should change them..!!
never had one before but it was like a bomb going off, especially with the window open! luckily I was only doing about 50 or less slowing down for a roundabout..........limped home 2 miles and have a tyre repair firm out tomorrow to fit 2 new rears, just hope the wheel is ok since the bill for 2 x pir rossos is enough this week
continental. was in really good condition and I know that stretch of road well, it has not potholes so reckon as suggested it was something on the road I hit.
agree. have had the odd slow puncture but this is the first blow out I've had for 15 years roughly, so regardless of the arguments over which one is best, it seems clear they are all better than they used to be
