Radders Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 Quoted from thescrapman I heard some knocking on Monday that is beyond spannering, luckily not my car......I will be wearing my "I told you so" badge for the run, and perhaps next time he will check the spare engine before fitting it. You must be joking! When does he ever take advice or listen to people? 🙂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CP72 Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 The car was treated a set of four new tyres on Saturday. Now it is stickered up and ready(ish) to go... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dion Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 Just got back from the tyre fitter. The rear tyres were very old - I remember buying them back in 1997! I managed to buy a set of old TR4 steel wheels locally yesterday. Two wheels that were on the car were quite bad - they wobbled. So from the 8 wheels the best 4 were chosen, and the 2 best from them went on the front. 165/80-15 Continental tyres.Drawback is that the rear wheels now are much less in appearance - my "old" original wheels were quite good and still had original paint. Maybe I will spray paint the rear wheels this weekend. Or maybe not, will see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malcty Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 Dinn. Had new tyres fitted to my vitesse. Then had to have new front springs as the new tyres caught the wing on tightish lock, Your car is probably better set up. Malc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
