OK here's one for you, what do you do if you have a flat when out driving do you use the space saver spare or do you keep a spare snowflake in the trunk ? are the space savers available over here if you have to use them.
I know it may sound odd but got to know thanks Nigel.

Same for me.

So I guess you don't put the space saver on, never used tyre weld, that good is it how far can you run with the stuff in and is the tyre knackered after thanks guys

I don't have a spare, can't find a wheel that will fit over the 13" rotors, apart from buying another Year One 17" Snowflake....

unless... ...Kev changes his mind...again.

i would not do burnouts with tyre weld

but in i am sure it would get you home tho if you follow the instructions on the can.

That the waist measurement ?

tyre weld is good as long as you dont get a cut in the sidewall or a big cut in tread
always carry one with me, also worth having a cheap tyre pump (the ones that plug into cig. lighter) to finish pumping up the tyre and top up as required on way home if needed
after all, our size tyres take a lot of air and even the large tyre weld might struggle to fill one to full presure
and they are less than £10 on Ebay

My space saver is in the back garden with not much tread left after we did a burnout on them always have tyre weld in the car just incase and like dad said it is a good idea to have an electric or foot pump with you.

I don't carry anything in mine,just hope for the best i don't get a puncture...................it is a 2nd gen though so don't spend much time on the road
If you have a pump with you then these also work well and easily fit easily in to centre console or glove box

Wont get my hands dirty anymore! AA lol

I would call RAC or get one of my bitches to fix it..

I could call RAC, but would take a while and wouldn't get you to a show
worth belonging just in case, but also worth having a tyreweld with you for small punctures
