    Think the guys at bridgwater tyres have a bead blaster. Fitted 235 on my 9s not anywhere near your stretch but they seem ok in there

    Marsh Tyres in Marsh Barton trading estate, Exeter, will do it. They're cheap too.

    Depends what you're after tbh mate. seem to be more of a bodyshop than a performance shop from what i've heard. I know someone who's having their Capri rebuilt there at the moment and the work looks good saying that.

    I got them to fit my arb's back in the day before I realised how easy this kind of thing was

    I know it's far mate. But BP Tyres in kingsteignton (where I work now) can do it for you. In TQ12 postal code

    A few places in Exeter will bud.... Or use a bit of hairspray and a lighter lol then take them to get balanced?! Obviously will need the tyre put onto rim first...I got a set of 215 45's on 10's with just ratchet strap an airline so if you got them fitted could give that a go!?
