Nice to get something right! :-) Actually and although I only managed a total of 6 laps it still gave me a feel especially around Gerards, I have just fitted 8inch x 18 inch rims to the front and 9 x 18 to the rear (curtesy of a Jaguar XK8 so very reasonable ebay purchase) and I came by some unused Toyo 888's for the front but they turned out to be only 235 x 40's not the 245's I was told but at 50 quid a pop I thought what the heck. I thought they were a tad narrow for the rims but I must say the front end of the car suprisingly felt very positive and precise and did'nt wash away at all so at fifty quid a pop they will do for now, I bought 275 x 35's for the rear incidently and still could'nt hook up out the hairpin!
