      Also, tyres off already, needs a new tyre anyway because the current one is nearing the end of its useable life so taking the opportunity to put a fresh one on

      It's bad cosmetic damage, actual real bad damage and I would replace the wheel. As for learning to repair it, I'm a marine engineer by trade so have the skills to do a lot of things and if I can't I know lots of people who can

      I'm just hoping to find anything that is a good match at the moment, after being forced against a kerb by a lorry, one alloy is badly damaged (low profile tyres and high kerb don't mix) I can't afford refurb and fancy teaching myself to repair them. Though I agree genuine is best, I'm not sure what that is or where to get hold of it

      Working where I do, I can tell you there is a difference between British Al-yew-minny-yum and American al-loom-min-num, the later is soft as mud and very tissue paper like!

      It'll be welded, not by me I can't weld to save my life but I know several fabricators.

      I'll have a look at his thread

      It's ridiculous, I understand that a few younger drivers are more likely to wrap themselves around a tree but it's annoying that minority drive my costs right up!

  13. Is outside a Tesco store the new youth club for teenagers?

      As a "yoof" myself I think a large problem (certainly In my locality) is there are no facilities for young people to meet, so as makes sense, they gather around landmarks such as Tesco. Rarely a nuisance though, far more trouble near me from the older and drunker
