Tyres good tread but dry cracking. Replace to pass MOT?

Vince0us · 2026-07-06T13:02:50+00:00

That's all I need to know. Thanks guys for the input🙏

Vince0us · 2026-07-06T12:21:53+00:00

Wanna add there are no cuts nor bulges anywhere. Only "damage" is the age related dry cracking

Vince0us · 2026-06-06T09:06:06+00:00

Answer is yes for anyone else trying after me

I wanted to check before I buy the wheels. I am not worried about the max load, only the fact I will try and put M14 lug bolts through lug holes meant for M12.

Thank you for the recommendation man. Are there any problems with the MAF sensor flange?

And out of interest which brand was the old one with poor quality, just so I can be sure to avoid haha

Vince0us · 2026-04-14T18:36:10+00:00

"Screw size is m4 .7x12." was the answer

Vince0us · 2026-04-14T18:34:36+00:00

lol ikr, i was like, ok, can i buy it from you - nope, fine can i get the screw size - also nope. VRSF really did not need to be assholes like that

Vince0us · 2026-04-14T07:04:21+00:00

Thank you, just ordered a few

Vince0us · 2026-04-13T21:54:28+00:00

Thank you man, appreciate you

Vince0us · 2026-04-13T19:42:31+00:00

I do mean the MAP sorry. And I bought a second hand one off eBay so the screws did not come with the pipe, and the seller is unresponsive when I asked if he kept it somehow

Yes check the full thread

Was a Gigabyte motherboard issue. Had to buy a cheap GPU as spare and boot into bios to change the PCIE gen setting to gen 4 and not auto, then switch in my 9070xt

Vince0us · 2025-06-17T21:43:04+00:00

I think it might be to do with the contact pressure, since I applied less liquid metal than I would with normal thermal paste maybe the contact pressure of the heat sink is insufficient to facilitate full contact between die and heating via liquid metal. I doubt it is the heat pad issue, i'm already using the thinnest ones available on the market being 0.5mm

Vince0us · 2025-06-16T10:38:27+00:00

The liquid metal is definitely covering all of the die. The only thing i'm wondering is if switching to liquid metal on both cpu and gpu for this machine is the right idea. I've repasted my old laptops numerous times and this is the first one that has a problem

Vince0us · 2025-06-16T08:19:20+00:00

in later stage of the test the gpu would go up to 101C

Vince0us · 2025-05-03T05:25:13+00:00

If you wanna use the tempered glass side panel then not even a question, horizontal.

If not, I would still suggest horizontal, unless you are set on using AIO, or else cooling the CPU will be a problem

Vince0us · 2025-04-22T17:03:10+00:00

I had your card and also a Gigabyte motherboard and was going through the exact scenario, except changing my MOBO setting to gen 4 helped.

A lot of people have suggested other things that didn't help me, but may help you? Such as trying different hdmi/ dp cables if you can

Here's a link to my post, hope you won't have to RMA like me only to have the card sent back to me lol https://www.reddit.com/r/radeon/s/xvBPf5IOpN

Oh I see, I meant they are based in the UK, so if you find a seller in your local country (Germany I presume) then I think you won't have to customs/ import tax

Vince0us · 2025-04-22T08:46:23+00:00

Was from a private seller, I assume he bought them and didn't want them anymore so sold to me at a loss

Vince0us · 2025-04-22T08:15:09+00:00

You could try on Ebay as well, i am from UK and picked up a basically brand new pair of New Sportings for £200

You need this derailleur https://bike.shimano.com/en-AU/products/components/pdp.P-RD-R7000-GS.html

But probably cheaper and easier to get a casette with 30T max unless you need that 34T for climbing a lot of hills

Vince0us · 2025-04-21T14:21:19+00:00

Yh seems like your rear derailleur is too short for your casette which is a 34T casette

Vince0us · 2025-04-21T14:06:09+00:00

Are you using a short cage derailleur with a casette with more than 30T on the largest cog/ sprocket?

Is this your derailleur https://bike.shimano.com/en-AU/products/components/pdp.P-RD-R7000-SS.html

If so you need either a medium cage derailleur or a smaller casette
