156GTA, 330 brakes, and a front tyre puncture...

Not a great combination
Was going to put space saver on back and put back wheel on front, but in the dark couldn't get the locking wheel nut on the lock nut so had to resort to that foam

Still - got me home and saved the alloy

Now I need 2 new front tyres (don't like to change just 1 new tyre!)..........

Bu99er, Bu99er, Bu99er........

Bad luck.
How much tread left on the other front one?

I've got one brand new bridgestone S-02 for sale if it's any use.

Cheers guys.

I've had 2 new tyres fitted yesterday, so the OK one on drivers side has been dumped.

It was a remould anyhow - can't recall the make, it was OK, but not a branded one.

The ones on now are BF Goodridge - maybe not the best, but OK for now. When the backsneed doing (which will be fairly soon) I'll swap them around and get something like the Pirelli Rosso's for the front.

Cheers
