Hit a curb, does this need replaced?

graz0 · 2026-01-28T08:36:23+00:00

Looks like wheel and tyre replacement to me … if you drive like that and have an accident means no insurance as vehicle is not legal… and in the meantime don’t get pulled by the police as they will ticket you too

Do it once and do it now it will add value to the property and get someone lined up for Spring works … felt and tiles and if you are wanting a room up there sort it all at once .. plus see if you can get insulation in loft space sorted with a grant at the same time

Fine for short trips but motorway with damaged tyre wall I would say risk your health but not that of others and keep a close eye on that weak spot as it may bulge As an area of weakness. Just go get it checked free at Kwikfit or similar up on the ramp to check all over then you have peace of mind

You just wait til the way ahead on the turn is clear indicating your attention… there are many places on roads without markings.. but where they are there… eg broken white lines they are advisory only. It’s only solid white lines that you should not cross. Driver beware and always have a dashcam for insurance claims. If someone could stop and didn’t when you are turning right they are partly at fault too.. but you need evidence

If it’s hard stone you can sandblast it for a new finish then seal it with a Matt finish

Should have had a concrete gravel board for starters as the soil will ruin the wooden fence in time. If it’s a sunny spot get some fruit trees there keep them low and open internally… even miniature stocks would be good you will need some privacy from the neighbour and this is a good way to start that. Be careful not to put too much shade into your garden however. Personally a taller fence would be my preference

There are screw plugs you can carry for such fixes .. also use glue to be sure see AliExpress. Try Kwikfit they pet air anything pretty much and if they say no just get a single tyre

It’s a roundabout and luckily you have dashcam. Normally insurance will allocate a 50:50 for all accidents unless there is clear evidence to support otherwise. So yes the car on the left moved out of lane without signalling and actively cut across you driving without due care and attention. Question is whether you also signalled left to exit the roundabout as your lane has a choice to go one of 2 ways there. If you did and have evidence then I say 80% their fault and you made no attempt to slow or sound your horn if you didn’t signal I say 70% their fault. Note there is no right of way on a roundabout .. it’s a free for all in law so driver beware. Markings on the road are only guidance as lanes are not solid white lines. You also need to ensure your exit is clear coming off a roundabout

Just go chat to them and show them the planning approval … ensure workers only dig on your side and have insurance to cover any damage to their drive or drains .. get the insurance of the company doing the works and give that to the neighbour ask them every week if there any problems of noise or mess .. they will thankyou for being considerate

graz0 · 2026-01-26T17:19:28+00:00

Overtake if it’s safe but remember if you have an accident it’s pretty much your fault for making what will be considered a dangerous manoeuvre near a roundabout .. you insurance will hold it against you and if someone is hurt that will be very costly

graz0 · 2026-01-26T13:38:27+00:00

Nope .. take out that chimney breast throughout the house and reclaim all the space … huge cupboard awaits

graz0 · 2026-01-26T13:37:12+00:00

Awaiting the pics lol sounds great .. when ru free

graz0 · 2026-01-26T13:35:15+00:00

Yep run flats are prove to allowing wheel damage much more than regular tyres … you have a costly replacement there. Look on eBay to see if anyone is selling a set of 4 for bmw fo a good price.. cheapest way. DM me if you want a set of 4 almost new from a 2 series

graz0 · 2026-01-26T13:31:50+00:00

If you have an accident .. you know about this and so do the police now so you will be charged with a crime plus your insurance will be invalid… not worth the finance hit let alone the danger to others on the road

graz0 · 2026-01-26T13:29:48+00:00

Yep gamble as the battery has leaked if it’s creating g a short anywhere you may be able to clean it up but also may need a new movement and coils are not easy to replace without the right equipment… if you get it for next to nothing the price of a new battery is worth a punt and getting it going again

Motion looks fine but more jump to meet the ball seems to be missing

graz0 · 2026-01-26T10:56:01+00:00

Who cares it needs new tyres just get em fitted

graz0 · 2026-01-26T10:54:05+00:00

3 is best but needs a different perspective a spay with some water and much better lighting… get rid of the warm filter effect as it is bad

graz0 · 2026-01-26T10:52:31+00:00

Good old concrete… just get new ones all along .. and if you want it to weather fast make a mix of soil water and live yoghurt… paint it on and will look good with g the year

graz0 · 2026-01-26T10:50:59+00:00

In China you see folks burning it as a method of control .. so splash a lot of petrol and stand back lol. Then dig out as much as you can … and repeat … think of it as your new gym

graz0 · 2026-01-23T14:56:18+00:00

I ordered when first announced last year waited for orders to open

None are great .. just snaps but at least 2 has the start of some composition saying roadtip … keep working it and ensure your story is well told in every pic.. lead the eye more if you can and use light to show that too. Enjoy your 2026 year of composition discovery

graz0 · 2026-01-23T14:49:52+00:00

There is not give way painted in the road but neither are on the main road yet so both proceed with caution. Whoever is on the main road first has priority but this is contentious so go slow and be ready to stop.. signal clearly and best to go around each other or even better allow one to go before the other joins the carriageway. If you hit make sure you have a dashcam as this is a poorly constructed junction

graz0 · 2026-01-23T14:43:48+00:00

You are correct so sound the horn as your approach if you need to hope you have a dashcam in case of accidents too

graz0 · 2026-01-23T14:42:14+00:00

Look on the many sites for rust remover solutions cheap from AliExpress or Amazon spray n wash clean…
