Uber stretch = spaced out a little further? :D

nope, but they look wider its an illusion

i was running 215 45 at the rear and 195 40 at the front both gash tyres for stretch

i now run 195/40 all round and the sidewalls are begging for mercy lol:lol:

if the price is right .....yes lol

its a weird illusion cos the tread is inside the arch now, whereas before it was nearly in-line with the rim

miles better imo.

higher than normal yes to keep them seated just in case, but ive never had a problem before lol though a few 'haters' will disagree.

the rears are spaced 10mm i had 20's on and tbh its ridiclulously wide to the point of stupid so the 10s will suffice for now though i may try 15s later on ;)
 
Is that the 700 or the 900?
I've been thinking about one of theses, Had a play with one in Halfords but they seme a little slow when going between functions and menus which dosent bode well for navigation and music at the same time. Though this could be the Halfords effect :ban:

Ill be interested to see the fitted pictures and how the installation goes:clap:
