Tyre Weld

I just popped to Asda to get a can of this and the only one they had was suitable for wheels up 16’, will this work for my 19’s or do they in fact do a different can for bigger wheels ?

Christ what a sense of humour failure.

I'd imagine the can would be perfectly adequate as there is probably less actual volume of air in a 19" tyre cavity at 30 profile than in a 16" wheel at (say) a 50 profile.

Thanks for the sensible response, don’t want to sound like a miserable f*ck, but an unsanctioned mugging off is a bit low.

Loner??? I sometimes hanker after those days, especially in the middle of, yet another, of an incessant chain of blazing rows with the GF. However, it makes for an interesting, albeit somewhat noisy, life

Nope, you need the size suitable for a 4x4

To be fair, you do actually want the larger sized can that tyreweld do which IS 3" bigger!
