Page 242 IIRC - and underneath it says that Vauxhall do not recommend the fitting of snow tyres.

that sounds a lot most cars around 90-120 nm

[doleboy]

Yep. 'Ro is 120 Nm. Maybe its cause the VXR8 is so lardy

[ARAF]

Maybe it's because the '8 has 14mm studs, whereas the 'Ro uses 12's.

It's a man's car.

[doleboy]

OK big nuts. I'm prepared to accept your comments. It's bloody freezing here.
