Finally got Ronals back with a Winter finish that won't need polishing every 5 minutes. In 2 minds as to whether to fit them or not though.

Just been outside and decided I am gonna fit them rather than risk ruining my split-rims in the snow, ice & salt. I just need some winter rubber now. Anyone got any suggestions?

I really like the wheels, why you want you're car on the road anyway in the winter. It is way to nice to be ruined by this weather.

Bout the tires, I'm pretty pleased with Vredestein tyres...

Hopefully, I'll have them on by the weekend. I see Toyo' Proxes are on offer online for about £23 each so might opt for a set. I'll post some pics once done. It's way to stressful driving on ice with 888's :)

Still a pretty damn good price. I sort of need some for the slug but not till next year so won't be buying them now.

Dunlop Wintersport 3d IMHO is the very best winter tire. Before Dunlops I had Goodyear UltraGrip and Bridgestone Blizzark and it was rubbishcompare to Dunlop Wintersport.

Thank you.

Just bought an extremely cool Ronal spoiler from Germany. I've never seen one before. Hope to have some pics later.

Obviously I need to paint it prior to fitting but I've never seen one before. Well not on a UK car anyway.
