ok,
the wheels are now off and it seems that the problem was the paint, it was bubbling from the inside of the rim to the outside of the rim! the air was escaping through the linked bubbles lol.
should be an easy refurb/ repair.
thanks for the advice guys
Yeh, the guy showed the mrs where the air was comming from, just never seen it before and wondered if it can be repaired, no visable dinks but ill get some photos up by tmr, i ve got the spare(steel) and another steel rim going on tmr, booo!
i had two really slow punctures so i thought whilst i was at it i may aswell get new tyres; local garage supplied and fitted via blackcircles, the next day both flat!!! took it back to the garage today and he tried 3 times to seal the tyre and then said that my alloys are no good??
has anyone been told that thier punctures cannot be repaired because the alloy wheel is no good? if so can they be repaired? is there anything i can do?
thanks in advance
