Tyreweld - Help

[BRUN]

just been to Halfords, looked at Tyreweld, and it comes in two sizes, the smaller one says its suitable for any tyre UPTO 155mm diameter

the larger one is for any tyre 155mm+

the diameter on my tyre is 550mm+

shouldnt it surely say width ?

my tyres are 195/45/15, should i get the large one ?

 

[Tom]

nope i use the small one and i have the same size wheels on my old clio

 

[BRUN]

why did you buy the small one though ?

 

[Fred@BTM]

BRUN??? What wheels are you runing 550mm wide????? Bloody hell isnt that like 22inches wide???? 300mm is near enough 12inches, Your car must be well euro, 15x22s?????

 

[BRUN]

its diameter mate, thats what im sayin, shouldnt the back of the can say width ?

 

[Fred@BTM]

OOOPS, sorry im the dumb t**t that cant read!!! DIAMETER 550mm need to get my eyes checked!!!! Sorry mate!! Wouldve like to see a clio on 15x22s though!!!

 

[BRUN]

me too, but which one should i buy ?

im certain the back of the can says diameter and not width

 

[BRUN]

aha, just checked the website and that says width, im gonna go buy the big can now, and hopefully it wasnt just me being stupid and i can take a pic and show you that it says diameter, the site says

Q. What size of Holts Tyreweld should I use on my car?




A.
Tyre width up to 155mm use 300ml
Tyre width over 155mm use 400ml

 

[Tom]

didnt realise they did a 300ml thought i had a small can sorry

they must do a bigger one

 

[BRUN]

right, i wasnt being stupid, it DOES say diameter, look

it should say width as the website does

I have two cans of that strapped to my floor but it wont be a lot of use if I have a high speed blowout and the rubber is spread across Essex.
