winter tyres fr Ade

[Steve Kerswell]

From the weather forecast, looks like you have been getting your moneys worth from them balloons Ade. How are they wearing?? Got an offer in on some 235 70 x 15

Drives nice, bit heavier but who'd a guessed that would happen :) Absolutely no visible wear signs at all.

235's might run the risk of fouling on lock, mine just touch on reverse full left, probably fix it in ten minutes with a sander but couldn't be arsed. Also depends on what make of tyre you fit and how deep the tread is. If you have centre offset wheels it will help as the steering arc will be minimised. Spacers will alter the arc described by the contact patch when the wheel is turned.

I need to get the left rear rebalanced as I'm still getting vibration at about 65/70 also need top refit the centre rings things again, took them out and stashed them 'safe' when I took the wheels off, couldn't find them on refit so managed without. Reckon centrifugal force may just have wobbled one off centre by a mil or two.
