Just thought I would share these shots of the car with the new Cades Vienna Alloys and the Avon ZZ3 tyres. I weighed them and the S Spoke and the difference is 2.25 Kg per corner so 9Kg lighter overall.





Just need to get silver locking wheel caps. Haven't had time to drive it and am waiting for my Slime kit to be delivered.

This is before

Just took it for a spin and there is a marked difference. It still bumps but without the sledge hammer feel. It feels quicker to respond and also the road noise at cruising speed is virtually gone making it a more all round car.

Got to paint the brake calipers now as you can see them more.
