New wheels
Finally after a long, long time i have got new wheels, so i thought i would put some pics up.
They are advan's (were for sale in the classifieds for a while) 7.5jj front 8jj rear with toyo pxt1r 205/45/16 and michelin pilot sport cup 225/50/16 rear. tyres fitted and balenced for free (big thanks to mike down at vauxhalll) D1 wheel nuts, new spigot rings and just center caps to get now all for under £500!!!!! Have never driven the tubby hard in the corners before as the old tyres could not take it, but what a difference these have made

Re: New wheels
Darn they do look good but space needs must so I am glad someone is getting some good use.
Also glad you like the rear tyres they are awesome in terms of grip and allow you to put the power down well
