Hehe naz!

Snags....what ya For Funks Sake ing about ay??!!!! Lol good to see ya bud!! x
I can't see what the problem is... haven't you watch F1... they can change a wheel in .5 of a second. Get on with it woman ;-p

Haha no chance, it's chuffing snowing outside!!!
I couldn't change a wheel nowadays........(not that I've got one to change)
Could you not take it to a tyre place and ask them to change it
Is it just flat on the bottom?
It only gets a problem when the flat area on the bottom moves to the top
Have you got a spare? Change the wheel then take the duff one to a tyre place, probably a slow puncture. Probably they'll just reseat it, or perhaps fit an inner tube.
Why don't you buy a tyre Inflator? for approx £25 I always carry one, it can cost you more that £25 to repair a tyre that you run flat.

Thanks guys. The boyf took one look and said I can't drive it! Will be calling the Green Flag out tomorrow morning to change it and then I'll get the tyre fixed!

Appreciate all your help!

And TWR, I'm going to get myself one of those don't worry!!!
Have you not got a spare? I don't understand why you are calling out someone to change a wheel.
Must be disabled if he/she has to get help to change it., or just plain U/S.
if its just flat at the bottom turn it round
People like this should not be driving and also hike up the price of recoveryt for everyone else!
People like 'what'?
Do you not have a friend/neighbour/son/father/uncle who would change it for you if you can't manage it yourself?
mjwman, I have come across Company Directors & people in high posts that have tried to put oil down the dipstick, dont knock Loobie for asking a Qs, some people just cannot jstify when a tyre is in a state of danger.

Yeah people like what? I've been driving for 5 years, have never had an accident and have called the breakdown out twice. I'm not going to deny that I have no idea how to change a tyre.

Am I going to ask my 62 year old dad to stand out in the snow, in sub zero temperatures to change my tyre? No I'm not.

Remember now why I don't come on here anymore - because in between the nice posters, there are a bunch of t**ts.
Loobie, let it go over your head, some people just cannot help people without coming out with crp. x
