Well stfu b!tchin and get fitted home boy!  :rolleyes:

Fitted them this morning but need to clean the car first. Will have pics later.

Had the new tyres put on them but have gone to Bristol today and noticed my steering wheel shaking. They were balanced at the same time, although now concerned maybe they are not straight?

It's only at higher speeds though, about 60+.

Not saying they aren't bent but 60+ mph is dead right for poor wheel balance. Start simple and take it back to the wheel place. Quite likely that a weight has fallen off.

Yep - that works for me. I am aiming to keep mine original but I could be tempted with those.

Perfect and bloody lovely on yours :grin:

Cheers buddy. Definately on the cards for a red roof, don't like te black at all. Also need my Wong mirrors done back to red too.

Think next job that's cheap and easy enough is to paint the calipers red as they are not so red at the moment. :grin: Given that the Anni came as standard with red calipers it's only fair.

I don't want to sound biased but you should get some RX2s for yours, still OEM enough as they were original on the Annis and as you can see they set red MK3s off nicely. Couldn't stop looking at reflections of the car on other peoples cars on the motorway. :grin: Best one was a long gloss black bus, I was like "ooooo look at my car!". :grin:
