Sacrilege!!
Whatever tyre fitter attached that lead to the alloy's rim?
Don't they know to fit sticky weights on the inside of the wheel so the rim doesn't blister?

Same as my current C1 alloys, unbelievable really. Both unbelievable they've done it and unbelievable the owner accepted it.
Tyre fitters use a floor jack on the sill seams. Do not ever give any credit for thought or knowledge to a tyre fitter.
My local place got to know me. They give me the jack, finger tighten the wheelnuts and wait for me to lend them my torque wrench. Every tyre garage I have ever been to will jack on sills (ever wonder why sill rot always seems to be exactly where tyre fitters jack your car?) and gun wheel nuts on for everybody else's cars. Eh... Bye threads. So long studs. Adieu wheels at 120 through a bend...
Wheelweights on the outside are the least of your worries.

Where are all the other cats. Did a 250 mile drive yesterday and still not another cat to be seen. I knew these were rare beasties. But this is crazy.
Frequently posted, check these stats out; clicky-clicky.
What that doesn't show is location. I honestly cannot recall the last time I saw one on the open road up here in the NE.
Agreed, although there is one in the next village to me, the guy does about 1000 miles a year in it, even though it is his only vehicle !
My mate spotted a V reg ebony with spoiler last night (about 2130), at Ty Mawr Holiday Park near Rhyl / Abergele.
That's mewas going to a friend's in Prestatyn
Excellent! He's seeing family down there, but he text me knowing how rare these beasts are
W167KET. You posted a dash cam picture of it previously thread no. 3017 ��
I thought there weren't many round here and it was likely one I'd seen and posted about before...It's just that the forum wouldn't take 'KET' as a search term (too short) and other than trawling through the thread looking for my user name I couldn't figure how else to check (I can now, check my photo postings, though not all spots are imaged).
Similarly that spot (16/02/18) was a Friday, it may be that's the day I vary my route or the only day he goes into King's Lynn.
Frosty in cables retail park (Liverpool) just now. Is this someone's on here?
