hi

i want to my local tyre shop last week to get stretched 185/35/17 nankang on my Boavista alloys, was very pleased when i got them on, looked unreal.

now heres my problem. after i paid them went to drive home, but then all the warning lights came on the dash. the steering lock came on and had to stop the car. turned off engine and turned on again and was fine untill i got above 30mph again. so i turned back to get old tyres on again :( :(

has this happened to anyone else?

if so how did you get around it?

Thanx

Did you try resetting the tyre pressure warning light mate? Switch in your glovebox?
