After reading the thread about tyres exploding, I'd stick to the minimum of 96 for the rears.

Thanks, I'll try Wheelquick. I had 92s all round and have suffered bad tyre damage - see separate thread.

Hi

Bell Hill Garage do a 225/45/18 98XL for £65 + vat.

Has anyone out there got a white over silver Bongo/Freda with wheels other than silver, as there are so many colour choices not sure what to go for?
Also has anyone a Ford centre cap for rx8 alloys in lue of the Mazda ones.

Thanks for all the help

If you put this in the 'stuff wanted' forum, you may get more responses. Happy hunting. :)
