You all talking about me when I’m not here … ? :giggle:

I think that gauge belongs to Ford, he said it was from the health check vid :wink:
This is correct :like:

It’s a Sealey tool if anyone is interested (you can see the name easily on the full video) so it should be reasonably cheap and readily available - Machine Mart is a big Sealey reseller.

Personally I don’t have one, I don’t really see the point - you’ve got a good idea what condition your tyres are in, long before running them to the legal limits where parts of mm’s suddenly become important. I understand why the garage needs to be ‘accurate’ :like:

If you want to, just by a digital vernier - much more universal and it will still do that job if needed (and I have one of those) :like: A cheap one from Aldi or Lidl is a great tool to have in your collection and probably good enough for 99% of home usage :like:

I actually do have one lol Not so much for checking the tyres I’m using but I’ve always changed cars quite often and had spare wheels/tyres to sell, also used to be heavily into track days and had various sets of wheels and tyres I rotated, always good to know exactly what life’s left :)
Miss my little cup!

Couple of weeks ago I had my driver's side rear caliper handbrake mechanism ever so politely seize up and almost catch fire. Fitted a new caliper and new discs and pads both sides and I also fitted some Koni active dampers I've had sitting aroujd for a few weeks. Needs a good wash now as it's been covered in s*** since my camping trip, but lack of motivation has prevented such a wash from happening. Maybe I'll get round to that at some point this week

Well, I don’t have a properly running car and have been looking at c63s and V8 Vantages but that doesn’t get in the way of a mod or two now does it?
Sick. Yes, I’m very sick, help me…….

Both bits are by MMD, fortunately for me I got them used from someone moving on :)

People flamed me so hard with my carbon ones that I never installed them.

I just have difficulties with stick on stuff generally, thought these looked ok and tbh they do but the car’s just cleaner looking without them imo

If I was spending that sort of money I’d want my installer to be supplying and doing the job from start to finish, no excuses in the event of problems.
