Hey Guys,

As promised a couple of the before and after shots of my poor wheels after sundays mishap.













When I went into check the wheels I got a shock at just how fat the rear tyres look. As a reference thats a wheel nut up against the tyre.

Anyways, the boys at valet-tech in Stirling have done a fantastic job of the two wheels, left it at 9 this morning got it back at 5pm, wheels perfect. Car fully preped - washed, fully veleted, polished and waxed and wheels done all for 180.00 inclusive of vat.

Apologies if pics dont do it justice but I am really pleased with the work done, just need to drive better nowbiglaugh

cheers

Same tyres i've got on the Celica, unless they're wet they look very very bald.

Still got 5mm left on mine but you'd swear it was less than 2 looking at it dead on.
