Look great Rusty.

Having had a text every step of the way of these wheel purchases I was surprised not to get one when you actually had them and fitted! ;)

You can cast your critical eye over them in the flesh in a couple of days Jason .

A bit of an oversight on my part . I forgot I'll now be running without centre caps but I won't have time to detail the centres before I leave for Scotland .

BTW , lug nuts are set at 94 ft/ lbs yes ? Guessing that's irrespective of wheel type .

Booked the Chunnel for Sept SPA in the 911 no less.
Best start getting it ready...

Always wanted to do this, inspired by Gary trolling off all over the place without a care in the world!

Excellent. Last time I drove my car was to Spa, it hadn't moved since coming back from Le Mans, next time it moves will be to the highlands on Friday! Makes a change from commuting in it :)

Still need to fix the throttle linkage tonight (on my birthday!) assuming the generous DDK emergency postal deliveries arrive or it's not going anywhere!
