What sizes did you end up with, as they do look great? I've now completed a 2nd set of 7&8x15 Fuchs and need to decide what to run on the road while I keep the V70s for track

Time has come to forget the rest of this year

Into the workshop for some work

My updates are in full swing

Spot them all and I'll send you a load of stickers
