i suppose it depends on how specific you are on the looks of your car and attention to detail or fancy a bit of extra moolar in your pocket for the trouble.
might be less hassle just to get them to pay you off, instead of messing about with a refurb or new wheels, especially this close to...
at the minute i would go for the money personally as i could do with some more, however i would either get them refurbed but get a garantee that the colour will be a perfect match or hold out for some new wheels, depends what you think you can get away with.
if the fitter agrees you told him...
if i was you, id try to but back the car if it's nice and cheap, sell on anything thats worth anything then scrap the car, then buy a shed just to get you over christmas, then when you can afford a 182/172, you have your insurance money + whatever profit you make selling the parts over buying...
i got hit in the rear in my 04 dynamique, got hit about 10-15mph and my car was close to a write off according to insurance and the repair garage, the spare wheel had popped up under impact and my car was about 3 inches shorter due to the impact, it needed a new spare tyre because that had been...
^^i agree completely with what you say, although wet grip is a bonus i never push my car when its wet, but when its dry i tend to give it some, especially around corners as i have no straight line speed!
did a bit of research and thought that the proxes are good tyres for the money, was going...
yeah, i just bought 4 proxes, T1R's like you, got them for £121 delivered from my tyres, think i got a really good price considering the standard michelin energys on my standard wheels are £120 for two at costco, and £200 for 2 anywhere else!
how long have you had the proxes?
all three sets are roughly the same price, give or take £20, on my tyres the proxes got the lowest overall rating of 1.6, the lower the better, and the F1's got 2.2
so what if its a 1.2?
i dont understand people critisising (sp) others for liking a car which isnt as fast as others.
some people cant afford ti buy or run a faster car, whats wrong with being happy with what you spent your money on?!
just because its a 1.2 doesnt mean its a completely rubbish...
if you do it just after you pass well worth it, if you have a years driving experience its not worth it at all as you probably wont save much because you have road experience.
if i did it as soon as i passed i would have got £600 back off my insureres, norwich union, but because money was...
a mate just told me about a company who did his work mates wheels, apparently for £100 they will sand blast, powder coat and put some tyres on...sounds good to me!
gonna find out tomorrow!
yeah, was thinking that but thought they might be extortionate prices because its their business!
my dad and mate are both going to try and pull some strings so should be ok!
ive got two small internals in my 3/4 windows, was gonna go for the same as you with a big one in the rear but didnt have enough money in the paypal account!
