    Cracked Window

    My front window had a chip on it. I taped it and it cracked, it was only about 8" when it cracked, now its right to the top of the window and just over 3/4 down the window. But its in the centre. Should I replace it straight away or will it be ok through the winter?

    Should I change my tyres

    The tread is still pretty deep. They have done 60,000 miles (80% motorway). You can see on the photos attached, that little cracks are appearing on the rim of the wheels as the tyres keep going down, I have to pump them up once a week, sometimes twice.
