Tyre repair kits are an excellent investment when travelling remote in the event you are unlucky enough to damage more

tyres than you have spare.

A compressor is a must have to reinﬂate your tyres after deﬂating for rough and corrugated roads.

A

tyre gauge is a must have to deﬂate your tyres to the correct pressure when travelling oﬀ road. Uneven inﬂation of

tyres on the same axle can cause dangerous handling in the car or trailer.
