Which type of wheel is it Stan?

If you hit a pot hole, claim from your local council for a new one.

Thanks Paul - saw Mark at S&F yesterday.

Pete - StilautoSR500 17" (x 4 !!). Took photos, claimed off council - their get out is that they operate a regular inspection and repair and that when last inspected it was fine. I suggested that the inspection frequency was too low considering the size and depth of the water filled hole I hit, and am still awaiting a reply (first incident was in Feb). They say they can only repair holes if they are told about them and if they didn't know they cannot be held responsible !! Nice one.

Keep at them, Woking Council said exactly the same to me, but I kept on and on at them and eventually they coughed up! (still admitting no liability though!)
