Re: new car

hi mike,
hope all is good mate,
haven't had to touch them mate,(makes a change)
apparantly they don't need spacers
as for rubber, 205/45 front and 225/45 rear,best brand i can afford
although at the minute,i am having to stall as i have been ill again
for the last 7 weeks,only managing to drive the car once in that time.
i am waiting to see a specialist,so the car and the wheels may end up going . paul.

I hope thats not the case for you mate, for two reasons, i dont want you to be poorly and second - I cant afford to buy another one off you at the moment
If its any consolation im not driving for atleast 6 weeks as i have broken my right ankle ..... even if it was an auto i still couldnt drive if i wanted to ! .
And lol at Rubber Chicken - great minds and all that

Re: new car
How'd you manage to break your ankle mate? That sounds nastyyyyyyyy!
Kentucky will make tyres if they dont, I'll make sure of it for the safety of all chickens as I'm sure we can find some rubbery bargain buckets! For the sake of chickens, hmmmm...in fact, there is no hope either way for my kind...you're all just meannnnnnnnn, meannnnnn I tell thee!
So what's up with you old timer?

I broke it doing something ive done thousands of times. Playing football, jumped to catch the ball, landed funny and snapped it. Bit of a lame way to get injured.
I could do with someone coming to take my wheels off for me and putting them in my kitchen. That will keep me busy for weeks !
