TBH those falkens are shocking! Once youve put some good tyres on you wont believe the difference!


Nice full page spread in the Volks Driver Mag!

I will be driving miss daisy over the comming months.  I know I'll be in for a nasty surprise if I attempt to drive on the Falkens as I would on the 888s

Only a cheap stop gap while other stuff gets sorted  :innocent:

Finally had the tyres put on and re fitted the alloys to the car.

Here are some MORE pictures, I hope you like them  :happy2:









The car looks really great with these wheels (9 out of 10) but IMO it looks better with the grey wheels (9.5 out of 10).
But it is just a matter of taste so don't mind me  :laugh:.
Drive safe!

How do you find the Falkens?  Just ditched what was left of my 2nd set of R888s for some 452s until Im on top of servicing & niggles
Ive got falkens on mine, not a bad tire but offer no protection what so ever for the wheel, hence why mine need re doing!!!

Had a new custom PDT map from dave @pdtuning and I'm over the moon with it.  :evilgrin:

Ran a 305.7bhp on saturday.



Darren kindly coded my indicators as DRLs by setting the percentage at 35%. It's a bad picture but they look great in real life  :grin:
