Michelin tyre needed

[David and Sally]

I bought an alloy wheel so I can make up a spare for my MoHo. I'd rather not rely on the gung/pump thing.

I need a Michelin Agilis CP - 225/75/R16CP tyre.

I have seen some disquieting info on buying online as some have suspected they got fake tyresrather than the pukka thing.

Do you know of any reliable suppliers online or should I trail around the local tyre depots fpr one?

Thanks

PS, then I've got to find somewhere to store it

Hell, that's cheap.

Bugger. Ordered one today from my local depot who are about the normal price on tyre sites.

Never mind. Someone will get a bargain.

Thanks

That's only a C van tyre rather than a CP Camping tyre if that worries you.

Thanks for that.

I had a similar conversation with the tyre depot. They has a Continental in stock (didn't ask about the load rating I'm afraid) that was a bit cheaper than a Michelin. As a spare I'm sure it would have done, but suppose it became a bit more permanent if a tyre blew and I needed the spare until I could get a replacement?

I have gone for a Michelin so that I don't ever end up with an odd tyre. Is that a bit anal??

No it’s not as if in Europe you have to put same tyres on same axles so you can’t mix and match.?

Thanks PeteH.

That was my next line of investigation - exactly what do I need to hang it under the van? It will go through the garage door but won't lie down on the floor so will block the door. Put in the van? - not really the best bet.

Undersling it? Yes, best option but what's needed?

This spare whell is growing ££££ legs

I bought a Ducato spare wheel carrier from fiat and bolted electricians galvanised unistrut to the chassis and bolted the carrier to that. Buy the repair kit carrier then you dont pay for the jack kit you probably have one.

Sorry Simon. Sounds like a plan but I'm not with you I'm afarid.

I just got a piece of alloy plate (an old door kicking plate I had lying around) and made a bracket to bolt it inside the garage against the bulkhead wall it’s easy to get at you don’t have to crawl around under the van.?
