Monthly dumb question

Post by simes69 »

I'm worried about my rear offside tyre - it seems to be not as flush to the rim as the others. Would a tyre fitter be able to remove it and and fit it again? Or is the act of removing the tyre from the rim a fatal process?

Simon, it should be OK to R & R the tyre, that's what they'd do if you had a puncture.
Occasionally the bead gets damaged, heavy handed tyre fitters can assist this process of course.
RM tyres on Medway City are very good & Chris one of our new members works for Watling Tyres.
