The cars had a bad vibration for at least the last couple of years, which i suspected/hoped it was one of the wheels buckled. Took them down to south west wheel repairs, and all 4 were buckled 1 by 2.5 cm!!!
They have done an amazing job in straightening and painting them and now the car drives so much better, thought you would only notice at high speed but at 60-70 it is now so smooth with absolutely no vibration at all. So really pleased, but just wondering how long they will last?

Surly some one can re-manufacture spiders wheels in the correct offset and in a higher quality? Has anyone ever looked into this?

Cheers

Martin

lol, i think it was our crap roads down here in devon causing the flat spots, luckily they have finally started repairing them!
You know we would love to make the 3 nations and visit our favorite crazy austrians smile
Maybe i suggest a nice quite weeks holiday earlier in the year first?
Do you think we could convince Colin/Jenni Udo or Woki to join us on a road trip???
PS if you need somewhere to stay while your having the 5 litre rebuild you know who to call spin
