I had a bit of bother with one of mine on Saturday whilst returning from Scotland.

Cheers Andy

Post by: Hissy on March 07, 2006, 12:44:57: We were on the B7076 which runs along side the M74 between Moffat and Crawford cos it's a more interesting road than the M-Way.
Probably only doing 50-55 on a long right hand bend.(Ok mabye a bit faster)
Landybabe sez "GET OFF THE WHITE LINE" but that was the tyre breaking up.
It was only a couple of hundred yards from the noise starting until i found a safe place to stop. I'm just glad the flapping tyre didn't damage the motor :roll: :roll: :roll:

Ps one new tyre is bad enough but i can't afford "5"

Don't know the size, but from the tread pattern they are BFG AT's.

Post by: thermidorthelobster on March 07, 2006, 14:49:04: I had a BFG A/T spontaneously fall off the wheel once. It didn't shred like the one above, but was a trifle disconcerting. The tyre place said they couldn't find anything wrong with it, and said sometimes it just happens. :? They even had a name for it, spontaneous loss of pressure or some such.

Post by: C C on March 08, 2006, 13:50:08: Just had a set fitted for around Ã‚Â£350. Not sure of the exact price because the old bus needed some other expensive repairs too. :(
The mechanic said the old Goodyear Eagles that came off had started to distort.. :shock:
