Default Finally Found My Wheels

So I have been looking for a set of Prodrive PFF7s and as Tubby Tommy correctly pointed out they are near impossible to find so after giving up I decided to go for some ROTAs until last night I found these on ebay.

Yep, a brand new set, the right colour and still in the boxes. The guy I bought them of also had the most stunning 22B I have ever seen. So after a quick haggle and a trip to Surrey n back I ended up at my local tyre dealers.

After opening a few of these . .


A bit of this


Some of that


A quick check


A good wash


I ended up with this . . . .






To say it was a bit of luck to find a brand new set, in the right colour, with the correct bolt pattern was an understatement but sometimes things just work
