for all those fortunate enough to have chromey type wheels it certainly does make sense to have another set of wheelz for the winter ;)

the salt in the grit they put down over the winter can seriously corrode your nice polished wheels,

so if i were you id buy another set for the winter to keep those swwweeeet swwweeeeett alloys of yours looking great gav :D

p.s if ever consider selling those wheels. let me kno!!!! :D id snap your hand off for em :)

pss, what would you say the 0-60 in your car was gav?

0-60s are a load of bollocks though really.....it's all about the driver eh ;D
