I had what I thought was a puncture until I took the tyre for repair and discovered that the alloy had a hole in it. I must have got a stone stuck on the inside of the wheel and this has punctured the wheel( I had problems reversing immediately before the puncture , the car wouldn't move backwards but went forward okay ). The guy at the tyre shop said that I might be able to get the wheel welded. Anyone had experience of this ? Thanks. David
