 They are on at last! 17" webspokescheesey.png

Thank you to everyone that posted about the tyres, I settled on the Toyos through TyreTraders.com, and reckon by having them delivered and fitted locally, I have saved about £200cheesey.png

First impression after driving on runflats is just how comfy it now feels - there is a tiny bit more give making the ride that bit smoother!

Next job - the blue paint....watch this space...

 Super Phil! Shame you didn't go for the spinners in the end
Does the red nose sticker help with the smoother ride?

 Web spokes are the best wheels and that Red Nose is worth at least another 20bhp

 They look very nice Phil, glad you like them

Cant's say the nose is a great addition to the look, you might need red calipers to tie it in!!!!
