Hi to all!, i have a Defender 110. The tyres have been going down, my mechanic says it's the rims corroding and i either need new ones or get them sandblasted. I have no idea what would be best!!!

Any advice please

Thanks

Sammy

I agree. New garage
If still a problem go to tire garage for inner tube..
Are they new tires?
Did said garage fit them?

Definitely try a tire specialist first could be the valves etc. get a second opinion before shelling out.

Just a go round with wire brush would sort that.

Not asthough a new set of steel wheels are a fortune. £120 - £140 brand new for 4
