Just got a puncture in the Calibra and need to drive back to the Midlands tomorrow, can anyone recommend a cheap source for a 205/40/17 in Southampton? Help a soap dodger save a few quid! :(

How bad is the puncture - you might be able to get it repaired?

The roads are awful in Southampton, couple that with low-profile tyres, it being on the rear, slow speeds and it was some time before I was sure it was a puncture. The inside wall is wrecked! Lucky it didn't part company with the rim :tard:

I did think about Saloony, but I needed it doing ASAP. A geezer at ATS had a mate who had a pair in his van for cheap, but wasn't around until later. But Truck Point sorted me out with a sexy Infinity :tard: for £52.90.

Mods can delete this thread if they like.

Damn it, I was actually down Villiers street the day before the puncture! I'll keep them in mind for future reference though, cheers!
