Test drive it ...... they made sure it was locked when I arrived.
Absolutely stunning motor, I do not know why I did not take any images of it.

You can get 20" spyders with tpms and tyres fitted (no centre caps though) for £3300 after a bit of discount. Even if you wear out the tyres if you don't kerb the wheels you'd be looking at £1500-1800 when you come to sell them.
Yes I do mine myself. You just use a trolley jack and one of the hockey puck adapters with a raised slot in it. The car will automatically sync the second set of tpms sensors correctly, no coding etc required. Usually does it within a few miles.
You just need to “tell” the car in the multifunction display what tyres you fitted. I.e. size and if winter or summer.jonnydrama wrote:Yes I do mine myself.

And Michelin will also ensure that the weather is permanently dry and consistently above the designated temperature.Nuclear Nick wrote: ↑Sat May 18, 2019 9:41 am Toto Wolff - “So what do you think of my new tyre strategy Lewis?”
Lewis - “I think it sucks. You’ve given me one set of extra hards and told me they’ve got to last all season! All the other guys have got three sets of softs, three sets of mediums, three sets of hards…”
Toto -“No, no, no Lewis, it’s just a marketing ploy by Michelin to get us to buy more tyres that we don’t need. But just a minute, they’re telling me they’ve brought us a set of All Weather tyres which will last all year, rain or shine. Now that should give you a big advantage over the other guys.”
Lewis - "But Toto....."
Toto - "You'll be fine Lewis, just drive to the conditions!"
I agree it's the same old same old. Those of us who think winter tyres are worthwhile will continue to use them and those who don't won't. If you hold strong views then opinions expressed on a forum are unlikely to change them.VanB wrote: ↑Sat May 18, 2019 3:57 pm This is all the same old same old! A 2 wheel drive front wheel drive car on narrow summers will perform better than a RWD on fat summers!
The permutations are endless but I think everyone agrees that winter tyres are better in the winter and summer tyres are better in the summer.
Most of the UK rarely gets extremes of cold or snow (I can only remember a handful of frosts this winter and was playing golf in a short sleeved shirt in Feb) so the benefit of having a winter tyre and wheel set is marginal at best. Especially if you don’t have to drive in adverse conditions.
