Over 70mph in a 2.0i you were lucky it was only the tyre that went bang :D
I would prefer a full bottle in front of me than a full frontal lobotomy.

SLOW :? ! i was crawling at 55mph on a motorway mate! any slower and id have caused an accident, the other 3 were fine, just the new one that failed :oh yer: , and after speaking to them today there going to replace the tyre and investigate cos its not the first one to do it!! :shock:
Ive lost abit of confidence in them now to be fair and as im selling the truck, they will be staying on unless someone wants to buy them, but il advertise everything later.
