Good point re bolts, I have some chrome heads on order. Did think about Michelins as they will definitely be next but these are only 1,800 miles old and another £1,200 didn’t appeal…Rarecolour wrote: ↑Sat Sep 02, 2023 3:25 pm Looks really good Jon .
Shame the wheel nuts/bolts weren't done at the same time though, makes a massive difference when they're done.
Personally, i'd have changed the tyres as well while they were off to Michelins too.

Actually, you're right re the nuts/bolts. Pity his "absolute passion for detail" missed a trick. Easily rectified tho as OP has now said.Rarecolour wrote: ↑Sat Sep 02, 2023 3:25 pm Looks really good Jon .

Well in fairness Mack it was never part of the deal to change the bolts so can’t really fault him on that. It’s more my bad, but as you say easily sorted and on orderPorscheMack wrote: ↑Sat Sep 02, 2023 3:31 pmActually, you're right re the bolts. Pity his "absolute passion for detail" missed a trick.

Thanks, Jon. Have read about titanium bolts, but think that might be taking weight saving a tad too far?!
