    Tyre Deformation - has anyone suffered with it?

    I decided to have all four wheels balanced as the car has developed a judder at speed and it's hard to tell if it's front or rear in modern cars. Two of my tyres seem to have become misshaped, so not running true around their circumference. It got me thinking that perhaps they had...

    Tyre Pressure Warning Light

    My tyre pressure warning light is constantly on even after I put air in the tyres. The pressure changes throughout the journey - for example sometimes it will display pressure of 215 rising to 235 five minutes later. I have 19" alloys - any idea what the ideal pressure should be?
