Another screw in my Tyre

[obi_waynne]

One of my new tyres, which are only a few months old has had a screw puncture , that's 3 punctures in as many months. How lucky am I?

At least it was repairable. I called out wills
Mobile tyres and he got to me in under 5 mins! Very impressed with the service.

Great service that, so I now know not to follow you around town unless I have made a pre-arrangement with the local tyre suppliers first!

 

[Loz]

Have you got building work going on near by or something?

 

[Yugguy]

I've had the same and yes there's a chuffin building site near work with crap all over the road all the tine,

Why you'll be all good. Waynne will pick them all up. :amuse:

If only everyone was that way inclined!

I suppose there are lots of workmen around and the high winds shattered a lot of fence panels. I just don't know why I'm so lucky, none of my friends seem to pick up punctures like I do! It's so frustrating.

I wonder if new tyres actually pick up screws and nails more easily, the thick tread grips the head of the nail better than thin tread?

I had a nail in my Pugs front left wheel... 3 days after we had a service!

 

[turbonutter69]

Could be possible I suppose.
I've had loads in the last few months. All required a new tyre. :sad2:

A lot is probably down to local authorities not sweeping the roads as often, when did you last see a road sweeper going along the roads?

 

[turbonutter69]

The other day. But it wasn't in my area exactly.

 

[gummy]

Could be handy if you got any diy to do at home!,wont have to buy screws,just go up and down the road.Joking aside it must be annoying! it goes to show how well the council sweep the roads or dont as the case may be!.

I have a habit of ripping the Side wall in my tyres I have done 3 in 3 weeks recently Not sure what I'm doing to do this :|

Chickenfeed. I bought two new front tyres for my car about two months ago - the same day I got a nail in the sidewall on the nearside one. I was gutted. When I got back to the tyre shop where I'd bought them, the guy thought I was winding him up ! At £80 a tyre he smiled and said, 'I feel your pain bro'.
Another time in a different car, the night I picked the car up after buying it, I got a puncture driving it home ! I laugh at it now, but it was funny at the time. lol
