    Flat tyres

    Most people must really drive in a permanent daze. Today I witnessed 3 cars being driven with at least one soft or nearly flat tyre with the drivers seemingly oblivious to the perilous state of their rubber. How do people not realise?! I managed to alert one driver to his problem (an A3 1.8T) and he was most grateful, but the Peugeot 407 driver I tried to alert just gave me abuse and then tried to out run me. Well don't blame me if he crashed, the 407 drives like a boat as it is... The third car was just parked up so you'd hope they'd notice on their return, but I guess maybe not.

    Is there a Phantom Tyre-Letter of old Richmond Town or something?

    People, check your tyres!

    Regarding wheels and tyres i think going to a larger wheel tyre combo and larger disks ie 323mm will reduce mpg due to more weight and drag ,a mate of mine changed the wheels on his BORA TDI and noticed 3\4 mpg less and he counts every penny as if it was his last
    whats your veiw on this.mine are 18,s .
