    I've had two punctures in my Disco. First time I was doing 1or 2 km/h and the second time was 0 km/h. Still very annoying but not life threatening

    Both were sidewall punctures.

    I don't think they were. They were also rivetted. They certainly weren't safety rims (depressed bead area)

    I've never been able to say that word around my wife, either.

    I thought I was wr... once - but I was mistaken.

    Interesting replies everyone.

    The tyres are running tubeless and they were when it went for it's roadworthy. If it were 'illegal' surely it shouldn't have passed?

    As for getting another tyre fitter we are hoping (fingers crossed) that we won't need one for a while
