Hi.
As a newbie we have bought a brand new bailey Olympus. We have been on 2 adventures in 2 weeks and love it. We heard a story about a tyre blowout and it frightened us a little. Anyway my question is should I get these band things for my single axle van or any other suggestions.
Thanks

Well, you`ll have good quality tyres on coutesy of the manufacturer. Designed for the job! You could get a puncture, but it hardly happens particularly on new tyres. Familiarise yourself with changing a wheel; I don`t know if new caravans come with a jack; if not, remember a flat tyre is 3 or 4 inches nearer the ground!

Don`t worry. At the end of the day, you can insure against this with greenflag or the RAC etc. So you won`t need to lift a finger! Probably your best bet; I`m gonna do this . . .don`t like getting under the thing . .
