Having a bit of a 'mare with tyres ... On sunday I went to pump up my rear tyres en route to an american car meet - couldn't undo the little cap things :O I've never had this before. Got a kind bloke to try, he couldn't either, so had to abandon the day out as one tyre was much too low to risk the autoroute.
Asked the garage monday, and they couldn't remove either, so suggested that as I needed new tyres anyway I could get them and they would just pull the air fill thingies out when they changed tyres..
I've ordered tyres from a place that has delivered very promptly in the past, and getting nowhere... no delivery, supposed to take car 08.00 tomorrow :( thinking about spare wheel (which I can't personally get out), but the other back tyre is looking very low too... Should go to another Yank meet on sunday, but is it looking likely?? Not really!
Anyone else ever had these little caps stuck on? I have checked pressure since the caps were new ...
