    Just as an aside, remember when you're buying new tyres not to let the garage tighten them up with a power tool, make sure they only do it by hand. You can check them when you get home with a torque wrench.
    The last thing you need is a puncture in the pouring rain only to find you can't move the nuts.
    but then you run the risk of a poorly secured road wheel, whats wrong with buying a braker bar and socket for your boot? they dont take up any room and with the added leverage you wont look like a 5 stone wanna be power lifer who is about to let off a turdpedo
