Cool Time to fit the Claws! ;)

Right, so my 15"s are finally getting close to limit!

Time to shop for boots for the Claws!

Thing is i'm Scottish, so i'm not paying £130 a tyre (£520) for Alloys that only cost me £250.

So folks, what fits, looks nice, lasts well, offers at least the same grip as my tiddly 15"s...... and most importantly.... costs less than £100 a corner!

It's ok though, nobody will think any less of foreign members having claws, this is aimed directly at Scottish members

I remember you bidding on some 18 months ago. Remember?

Re: Time to fit the Claws! ;)

Who me? Never! I got my 17"s over a year ago now! Just never fitted them yet!

So 205/40/17 are what claws take then?

Good prices via ebay, might just be a plan that! Can't fault Falkens, i've got them on my mini, lasted nearly 20,000 miles on the mini, and it gets hammered! Not the best grip granted, but alright!
