Hi guys

Picked up the new tyres and had them fitted then went to buxton raceway on the way back as there is a couple of secluded grassy areas where we could shoot a few pic's and check the wheel nuts for tightness as it was roughly a 20 mile drive from paddocks to buxton raceway, anyway here are the pic's

The reason for all the weights on the out side is because the two front wheels where slightly buckled but you don't notice it whilst driving so will have to paint them so you don't see them as much

but yeah we are really impressed with them as they certainly cope with bumps better the car feels a bit free'er but does hold back a bit on hills but I was expecting that but on the flat they are ok, the front edge of both rear wheel arch extentions rub every now and then when going over big bumps but as the tyres stick out a little we will get some different wheel arch extentions to sort this

what size rims and tyres, they fill up the arch well.

They are 265/75x16 tyres on 7.5 modular's think that's what they are as we bought the wheels s/h, yeah they do fill the wheel arch up a bit but glad we didn't go for the 285's as I think they would rub the extentions off, ours do just touch the front edges of the rear extentions when going over say speed bumps so going to see how they are off road and if need be we will have to shell out for wider extentions
