You git, you own a supra too. what motors do you own exactly? if one of the fleet is fwd the roundabouts over bluewater are very good for throwing it about, as demonstrated in the xsi. but for rwd's space is a bit tight for when the back end comes out...the concrete barrier/kurbs don't help as far as run off goes try 'Dartford polishers' for the rims, they charge £30 a wheel I think. And I think the old man has a contact for a wheel nut place. let me know. That's not my Supra! I was just showing the same wheels on two cars...both the Lotus and the Supra came with those wheels as standard. I need sleeved wheel nuts, as the lotus rims have a flat face and a wide hole: I'm not sure of the thread on my Toyota, which means finding some nuts is kind of difficult until I have the info! Dartford polishing sound worth investigating though, thanks for the tip.

Do you know where dartford polishing is? Ill write you down some directions, or I could drop in their tomorrow and ask for you, because I wouldn't mind getting the 7.5j revo's done on the mini...

If you do drop in and could get an idea of the price that'd be cool...I think they'd look cool if they were diamond cut. It should be quite a simple job with their plain design.

Rmad, I went to Dartford polishers today, the young bloke seemed to be doing more of the metal furniture polishing side than he did automotive. But he gave me a card for a bloke in longfield who's just started up that has diamond cutting facilities, the bloke didn't know what this was at d.polishers so I don't think he was too clue'd up. I was meant to take the card out after I went gym, but I left it in the centre console I'll get it for you tomorrow. Adam.

Incedentally, here's the wheels I'm hoping to put on my Toyota: 7x14 Lotus alloys...total cost £10. ;D Very TH-line like aren't they? Stop talkin' about it and get 'em on there Si. Or I'll just have to come up and do it for you - and you know if that happens, those springs will also be in for the chop... Yeah I know, waiting for the right tyres... Feeble excuse!

Yeah I know, waiting for the right tyres... Feeble excuse! Save your criticism young man! - for I have made progress...the wheels went off to the polishers yesterday, I've located and purchased a set of suitable wheel nuts and I've virtually finalised the tyre plans. Money permitting (although that's just about sorted) the wheels will be on next week.

Rmad, not feeling the 15's! Not on my pug anyway, I'm in the sh!t for money at the moment so I'm going to have to stall any plans.
