So many owners ask this question about fitting tyres - especially balancing correctly. I do wonder if the MSCC centres are missing an obvious function. The kit is pretty accessible to purchase now and with a little training this could be a very useful service.
Mail order your tyres and bring to a centre meet to get them changed...

Well new tyres fitted this aft and I popped in to see the fine chaps at Lifes Motors as well and took the Mog out for a blast
Unhappily or happily the new tyres feel exactly like the ones they replaced
It seemed such a shame to replace my tyres as they were in terrific condition and with my cleaning regime, they looked new
These new tyres look grubby and I’ve got black marks where the old weights have come off
Oh well!
A bit of cleaning and tarting up to do Stewart, a bit of scrubbing in required on the new rubber ?

A bit of cleaning and tarting up to do Stewart, a bit of scrubbing in required on the new rubber ? Do you mean cleaning or a few power slides? A bit of the wet weather forecasted might solve both issues and may be a fairer test of their performance. Again, would be interested in your thoughts then.
