Was greeted with a flat tyre today. All my valves are still on the inside of the steelies after pressing out and turning round my wheel centers.
And some mud got wedged under one valve, pushing it into the caliper which proceeded to eat it on the way home.
So fixed it by taking the wheel off then getting my mate to drive his fiesta on the the tyre to push it off the bead. Remove knackered valve, cover tyre in wet blanket. Weld up hole, drill new one on other side and fit in new valve.
Then all that was left was to spray a little carb cleaner round the tyre, light it and hey presto, tyre back on.
Pumped it up, put in back on truck, job done!
Just the other 4 to do now.

Oh no.... sorry about that.........
Mike myself and it was either Guy or Brian was talking about your valves and wheels on sunday and we wonder how long it would be untill you put the valves on the outside.
