Ahh the weight! This may surprise but they weigh the same! Lol. The oem 17" Inc tyres were 20kg. The new 18" (under 8kg each) Inc tyres are also 20 kg. So not gained owt but I have gone up a size in wheel. Initial handling was just A1 road and motorway. Lol. More testing later!
i never hung around for the weighing in as the wife was wanting some shopping. Doh!

Thanks folks!
Fpan - Yeah they make the springs and KW supply the shocks! Labelled up by both and sold by Eibach. Don't know the spring rates but one reason I bought them is they are only height adjustable and so no infinite messing about! Lol.

I just need to find a way to "excuse" myself from normal life now so i can get out and go for a spirited drive when the tyres are scrubbed in. Hmmm, a long drive home from work me thinks may be in order! I got a lovely route that takes me on some nice twisty bits and long straights.

I was after the Matt Black, but when i saw the Titanium finish on the revolution website it made me reconsider. Then I thought everyone is going black so maybe i would be different! LOL.Well, thats what i told meself anyway.
I tell you what though, Revolution is a nice place to be and get looked after by. Large wheel stocks on display and the whole team is knowledgeable and looked after us so if i was nearer i would be using them regularly.
