they need a good clean, put I cant wait to get them freshened up, with new tyres, and on my tubby!

by the way, if anyone has experience cleaning and protecting wheels, please check out my newbie questions in the detailing section!

Nice to see Advans so clean & tidy for a change!

I take it the 215's are for the front, what size rears are they?

new tyres going on all around: 215 40 ZR17 up front and 235 40 ZR17 in the rear.

might go for a 245 out back but will test fit first as it might look a bit stuck out due to the low offset.

took a while, but yeah. now trying to figure out the bloody wheel nuts...nightmare!

from reading around it looks like I need a slim tuner nut, in M12x1.5 fitment. Surprisingly expensive to get a "name brand"!
