Hi All,
Had my Zed for 5/6 months and the last few months the front left tyre (MV2 wheels, Bridgestone Driveguard tyres) has been deflating, meaning that I've been having to top it up each time I've been driving(every weekend), clearly this frustrating.
Prior to purchase the wheel has been welded, presumably for a crack.
It feels too much of a coincidence that this is the wheel which is deflating. I had the tyre off this morning and theres no obvious reason for the deflation, no screws or nails or anything.
I'm guessing most tyre shops wont touch welding a wheel, but I also know they won't repair run flats. Is it best to take it in and get them to confirm which is the cause then take it from there?
Historically I've always gone with Tyre-shopper.co.uk to get my tyres. I'd like to keep a set of 4 driveguard as all the tyres are relatively new with decent tread, at some point I'll go with something abit nicer in terms of rubber.
I'm based in Wimbledon if that helps with anyones recommendations.
