Got the rears changed yesterday by Kwik Fit who were very careful and basically did a good job - but I have to go back tomorrow to get the wheels balanced because they had lost the cone balancer "thingamajig" to hold the wheel in place!! They also did not know the torque settings for the nuts but took educated guess by checking settings on front nuts.

Receipt had to be made out for Alfa Romeo because TVR was not on their database!!

Expect they'll want to use the clamp-on weights around the outside of the rim. Get them to use adhesive weights on the rim behind the spokes.

Thanks Hut49 - they did infact use the adhesive type as you recommended.
