Here's mine on my winter wheels and tyres. I think it looks pretty good even though they are just 17" wheels

Sorry. :kiss:

Your car is a beauty with Monzas. Can't wait for the summer for you to put them on!
I was only giving you my opinion which is probably worth a pinch of salt anyway. :cry:
At least your Monzas will last longer than mine. :cry: :cry: :cry:

What make are the pumps and the wheels?

Cheeky sods!  :wink:

I got a set of 225x45 R17 94V Kuhmo KW27's. We were at 1.5°C this morning with wet roads, icy patches and freezing fog and I'm well impressed. Remains to be seen how they will do in snow, but they will be much better than the summer Bridgestones that were fitted. Had a 100 mile round trip to Stockton on Sunday to buy the wife a new car and they were fine from a comfort and noise point of view. Really wanted Vredestiens but couldn't get them until Jan/Feb from all the places I tried. Also the price of the Vredys had shot up significantly. Well happy  :laugh:

Thank the Lord we live in London and don't suffer from freezing bollocks and Golf Match looks on our GTi/GTD cars. :evil: :grin:
