Cool

Yes, I really do... Have the feeling that If I don't hold it hard, it will slip from my hands, and I don't really like the feeling (go figure )

Has anybody else felt this, or is it just me ?

Question

Could it be the lack of feeling from the stearing that guives this impression ?

I don't know Max.

I have fitted ET50 18" wheels and the feeling is perfect.

I dont think theres a lack of feeling - its just a lot lighter than the Mk1 car. I find i still hold on to tight - to subconciously "make" the wheel heavier - if you get my drift.

I wish there was a bleed valve that would make it a bit more "attached" but alas, i have just had to get used to it.

Never had the wheel slip out of my hands yet!!!

Ok guys... thanks

I'll just have to get used to it then... 1.6k on the counter in 3 weeks isn't much . Will have to make an effort on driving more...

cheers
