Hi All

Just thought I'd warn any other owners out there on the Wirral that a local WRX owner woke up one day this week to find the wheels missing of their car.[img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img]

So keep an extra close watch on your motors and keep an eye out for anyone selling some 17" WRX alloys please.

Chris

The standard locking wheel nuts are useless, the AA guy fitting a tyre to my MY02 the other day said he didnt even need the locking wheel nut as he could grip them easily with some long-nose pliers he had - great eh!
