Thanks baz


I know Si...I need to look at it for my next job.
I'm considering Rota Tarmac 2 but I need to do some more homework on them first.

It's going to be Anthracite or Silver if available and 18"



I have a little tread left on these yet so I still have some time in hand to get it right

It had a quick clean yesterday Danni

tmo.... I'm not sure of the tint % they were just described to me as light and medium.... I was advised not to go dark as it is far to much.

Looks great.

Where did you get it done? I want to do the same for mine but not too sure where to go either here in west or closer to cardiff etc.

As for ROTAs, I've got 17" torques and they've been great over the past 18 months or so. The lad running rarerims was perfectly fine to deal with. I'll be changing early next year and 18 gold Tarmac 2 are on my shortlist

I fitted it myself and it was a very tence few hours then a mate just gave me a hand to lift it in place and bolt down as it gets to a point where you need 3 hands

The driver and passenger fronts yes, I understand they have revised it just recently yet again. If they have to come off it's not a problem just a 10 minute job. They are the lightest tint you can get... I had them on my other one for 2 and a half years and had no problems at all.

I changed my wheels from silver earlier this year and was planning on changing them back after the winter but now think maybe they are a bit too bright.

I've now got something similar to Prodrive's bright flitter... and think I'll stick with it

A V5 wing was on my shopping list until someone posted up that Seibon carbon fibre RB5 wing last week...
