No, but the wheels will sell for silly money. When PH gets a set now he puts them on eBay at £1,000 buy it now and they always sell...
 
i.e. 7" and 8" D90s, late offset, using 205/55 16 front tyres and 225/50 16 rears

Thanks Simon,

thats the sizes I want, good suggestion, just I had hoped to get the fuch's into the equation.

Our driving style is similar, and you have hit the nail on the head many times with those remarks, - I cannot rely on the 245 section TOYO's to stay hooked up in the wet, so why not have 225 with all their benefits and accept the wet traction is right foot controlled.

Hmmmm was unaware of the S2 size options. They are OE and not a bad looking wheel, but would people think it wasn't '89 and had a Cat fitted........[8|]

thx again

I am currently using Uniroyal Rainsport 2, W-rated, on mine. Can't remember where I got them but it was either Camskill or Blackcircles or Pneus Online. They have been very good indeed so far, and were very well priced. I put them on new when I got the car back out of the body shop at Christmas - there's no percentage in having a newly refurbds set of wheels and tarnishing them with old tyres. Given the weather since Christmas I have been splashing around on them in the rain pretty much ever since. They are decently grippy in the dry, very good indeed in the wet, quiet and comfy. The car is a lot quieter and more supple than it was on the previous setup, which was Eagle F1 on the front and Toyo T1-R on the rear.
