16 year old tyre

So, everyone buying used tyres or even tyres from an independent garage, remember to check the production date and take note of these posts:

Trying to remember why I was called Corsaboy, lol

I was on Inside Out West Midlands last night talking about this. Oh yeah, I've hit the big time

Just another finger for those who said I shouldn't do anything about this originally

I'm so happy with this, I'm going to buy you an OcUK mug as a present on the condition you pose with it and the offending tyre.

MODS - Please can you take some money off me as OP may not want to give me his address (totally fair enough) so I can gift him said mug.

Still well prepared to do this, but I need a proper cheesy photo with said tyre

Wow, I guess it's fair to say you're feeling a little deflated after all of this.....

I think it's time certain people got a grip!

Watched pretty much most of that programme. Very decent!

Never knew tyres had to be stamped if part worn either.

When you were on the laptop I was hoping they would pan upwards and show OCUK forum

 

[Frenzy]

Impressive! Good job for seeing it through

 

[Griffo]

Brilliant

Didn't know tyres were affected so badly by age, my spare wheel still has the one it left the factory with in 1994, think ill bin it to save weight lol.

*EDIT*

Manufactured July '93, yeah that's prob past it

I had the forums on another tab whilst I Google'd for part-worn tyre, was hoping it would make an appearance too

And as you typed "pa____" google helpfully suggested "pantysniffing.com/members.php"

Good on you for going the whole way.. They count on people just accepting it.

Well done OP, did the garage owner have anything to say for himself in his defence?

 

[hurfdurf]

It is an absolute shambles of a place. Owned by a tight fisted asian gentleman.

Why mention the mans race?
