Matt at Lifes recommended Steve's (Tyred 'n Exhausted) Ltd to me. They are on Wright Street, Southport PR9 0LT (01704 531777). I had 5 Kumhos fitted in July last year (with tubes). They fit all the local exotica from MGBs to Ferraris and I found them to be extremely knowledgeable. They have all the gear to manufacture exhausts too.

Hi John,
Glad you have a fix.
The yellow sticker just gives cleaning instructions of the wire wheels".
Yes, I have that on the rims inner side. This other sticker is near the sealant
I think you may be right about the cusp of change.

Hi Geof,
I also checked the inside of the rim for stickers and there were none, just the one on the outside of the rim.
All the best
regards

When changing tyres after return at home check if no leakage simply by spreading water+soap with au brush all around the wheel, or ask the garage to do this simple test.

Robbie,
the problem is the inside of tubeless tyres are not designed for tubes. As I understand it they can cause punctures. My spare leaked and after the process you described I added gloop. It is now fine. Depends how low profile the tyre is. If you are reasonably close to 80% aspect ratio (i.e. standard) then heavy duty tubes (Michelin) or tubes of the same manufacturer (Vredestein in my case) do not suffer problems. However, I wouldn't fit a tube to a tyre of less than 60% profile.
