[Simex]

After putting a small hole in the sidewall of the Simex at the J33P event last week I need a new tyre. I've tried to get a major repair done but it's not going to happen.

Anyone purchased a single tyre recently and where did you get it from. I'm based in Wiltshire if that helps but have friends in Kent and Somerset so collection from those areas could be achieved if needed

Walfy, I can't believe you have friends in Kent and somerset because that's two friends more than i thought you had

[On the road again]

Looking good Will, now don't go taking it out you will only break it

[Very sad Loss]

Sad news,I spent quiet alot of time down with him in the workshop before i moved from devon, sometimes i would just pop down for a brew and a chat always welcoming a really nice bloke will be sadly missed.

[More tyres, sorry.]

Chris,

Mike Cuff from the j33p club runs them and after speaking to him at seven sisters looked at getting them myself but no funds.

He runs 35/12.50 /15 he used to run BFG but at the time couldn't find any in the country, speak to lovvers he spoke to mike about them as well i think.

[cutting nobbles off simex ET2's]

Simex don't work on rocks either.

krawlers or boggers work well on rocks

Even BFG muds work better on rocks than simex!

i've found the simexs work well enough on rock only rock i've drove on is at walters arena( seven sisters) in wales aired down and found that the big side lugs hook on the rock, not real rock crawling but not much of this type of site in uk anyway, if you know diffrent do tell as i enjoy big rocks
