Re: Cn36 tyres

Super interesting thread this guys. I've had Vredestein 195/65-15's on the car for the last 8 years or so, and its getting time for a change to something more "classic". I also have a refurb'd pair of genuine 7R fuchs which I have never got around to using yet. What's the current thinking ...

So many of us have learnt an awful lot from him - he'll be ver...

Re: New Owner of Extreme money black hole. 911E 1972 resto
