Looking nice there Tangles!

8 spokes looked a nice design, but these definitely fill the guards better so its WIN in my eyes ;)

LOL! You don't know that. But it looks great Clarence! Always good to see the Advans on another color other than black. :D Looking for new tires? You've rolled your guards already haven't you? 235 should be fine.

Now that there are x3 Libs there with 151C's, you're saturating Melbourne with Connoisseurs! :D

yeah I reckon I dig it on silver more than on black :wink:

Yes definitely looking for new tyres, one of them has a balloon on the sidewall and is not safe to drive on :P and so I figured I'd replace either a pair or all four. The other two tyres are still perfectly usable though, so I'm thinking I might not change them yet... hard to say.

Nah not these, they were a bonus lol. There's nothing wrong with the car so I figured I'd just do the major service on it and keep it.
