Hi all,
dunno if I can post these pics, but here goes.
Went to Filey & then Durham over the new year, at Filey brigg campsite I was struggling to get the van level due to the ice on the pitch..The levelling chock kept pushing away from the rear tyre on the O/S rear wheel, rather than riding up onto it. In the end, I gave up & found a piece of flagstone to reverse onto to level it up.
A couple of days later, we drove on to Durham, stayed there , no problem.
When we were about to set off home, I discovered the O/S rear tyre was flat..Changed the wheel. All ok. The tyre was split between the sidewall & the tread, the split was big! These tyres were put on 2 years ago & are 8 ply commercial, not rubbish. ( well it is now!)
I had a new 8 ply fitted (Same make) so we'll see how it goes. The split was on the inside so theres no way I could have seen the damage.
