Hi Nick,

Feature is in Complete Kit Car magazine, had a text from a customer who has seen it, but I haven't yet. It should be in the shops on Friday 27th.

I think Billy might be on holiday.

How's your car progressing? Lets see those BIG rear wheels!!

Hi Chris, wheels, WHEELS! Dont mention wheels! I now have obsessive compulsive wheel search disorder, caused by trolling EBAY, piston heads and every other site, every night for weeks. The perfect wheel is out there....
My mx is looking sad, now its sitting on spacesaver wheels. The body is lightly fitted, and I wont bond it on until I have the right wheels, have done the headlining and tweaked the vents. The two 5 spoke revolutions I have for the rear have 26" tyres on. I will see how they look, but I think probably 24" dis tyres may be a better compromise between the current 22" dia, and the original 250's 26".

Mmm, I did look at these, but I thought 9j on the front would be to much, especially with minimal offset? Would look good on the rears. Would need 255/45 tyres to get my 24" diameter tyre goal.

think these are took big though, at 11". Sourcing lower profile tyres on this width is proving too expensive for me £350+ each!

They look perfect to me, but if you aren't happy with them I will swap you a set of light covers for them if you like.
