There ain't enough scampi in the world for that to happen There probably hoping for a light dusting of snow to blame it on Too many people in this country want to do a pi@@ poor job and expect to be paid over the odds for it and then be entitled to a pension that will ruin us all!!! I think I am going to stowaway with doogyrev and maybe work as his Chauffeur in Canada, he could pay me in scampi

I thought that as I typed it but then thought no, can't be bothered to change it, should have know young Hugh would've picked up on it!! Why oh why is she icing bin bags ?

Ooooooooo, gauges from Latvia, how very continental

Mrs glrnet went shopping today, 11 miles away, and couldn't get custard, cream, icing for the cake or bin bags. And before anyone asks yes she did go to a supermarket

Thought I'd do that with the tyres which I ordered today You mean you haven't wrapped up the new wheels as a present from you to her for you Missed a trick there

Blimey, you know how to show a girl a good time!!! Mrs glrnet would have put the loo seat or anything else for the "house" over my head HARSH! maybe ----- but last year I bought her a new loo seat guess who was fitting it and then doing decorating and all other manner of stuff of xmas day, boxing day etc

Welcome Ebized in Epsom, Will350z Guildford, I'm in Dorking, welcome to the SE Posse

Ideally without spacers Stew. Ben at Rare Rims says that they brought these wheels in with these offsets particularly with the Zed in mimind so I'm leaning that way at the moment. Vred's are my tyre of choice after reading Colin's recent review and I'll probably go 275/45 and 245/35. Hopefully this will allow the addition of small spacers if required Is Martin at MW back trading now? It might be worth PM'ing Ben as he expressed an interest in attending some Forum meets next year and I said I'd pass this on

Thanks Ian, Blue Brembos most likely

Wheelie Jim, you have to stop this!!! .............got to scrape some pennies together for rubber now And find somewhere with them in stock

Thanks Chris Get on a tyre size calc site. Stick in the OEM tyre size and then the new tyre size and compare. You want to aim as much for as little difference as possible. http://www.etyres.co.uk/tyre-size-calculator.htm Front: 660mm - 225/45/18 (OEM) 654mm - 245/35/19 (New wheel) 6mm difference or 0.91% Front: 678mm - 245/45/18 (OEM) 675mm - 275/35/19 (New wheel - stretched a bit?) 682mm - 285/35/19 (New wheel - not stretched?) 3mm difference or 0.44% OR 4mm or 0.59% respectively for 275 and 285 Sorry I was refering to the "most members" bit. Agreed that your tyre sizes are fine, thats what I said in my first reply, that you dont have a problem as your tyres sizes are fine. The point I was making was to the OP and that you cant blindly put 40 profiles on, you need to understand the relationship first, which no one has explained. People usually come unstuck by not understanding this and just swapping tyres willy nilly

**My Chrimbo present to me** After much searching I finally decided on these wheels. I have to say thank you for the patience and help from CS and Ben at Rarerims for my endless stream of tiresome (no pun intended) questions. Anyone as uneducated as me in the wonderful world of wheels would do well to talk to either of these companies. Today I collected these beauties from Rarerims and will post more pics when I get them on the car. They are Linea Corsa's 19 x 8.5 offset ET15 Fronts 19 x 10.0 offset ET20 Rear

Flooded with orders translates into what new mods are you going to spend it on!!? We missed you guys yesterday, Joy even remembered to bring Ann Marie's pink head band with her

Welcome

At least Daz knew what I was on about!!

I am very seriously impressed. Good on you buddy.

Now there's a thought.........

Ok I understand about the relationship of radii between front and rear ref TCS, but what is the formula or how can I find out the tyre sizes that will keep the speedo as near as poss to "true" as well for the following wheel sizes? Front 19 x 8.5 Rear 19 x 10

Toby, what have you done!!!!? This is just going to get soooooo silly

What do you think then Stew?

I don't mind if a naughty girl is honest or dishonest

Hopefully we'll see you at some meets next year Pete

I did say you wouldn't get away with it, granted, Stew did take a wee while but none the less I'd say it's a fair cop!!
