aret peeps

some dingbat who had my corsa before me, decided it would be a good idea to add some metal dustcaps to the cav slabs, went to put air in and could only get 3 of them off, the 4th which is front left, was so stuck! someones had a go at cutting a gap down it to try and expand it and had no luck, it was so ceased on ive ripped the valve in half and now its sitting on a flatty. its going back on road in January but I don't want it sitting on a flatty, turns out the spair is flat and punctured! Does anyone have a spair wheel I can please borrow until its on the road and I get some new rubber and a valve!? im located in South Shields, Newcastle

thanks

A tyre place would probably throw a new valve in for a few quid? Just leave it on a jack and/or axle stand whilst you get the new valve in? Or just take the wheel off and leave it on the Jack and get it done when you get te new tyre. I've known people to leave the cars on bricks and wooden blocks before too haha
