Just a question about whether the tyre affords any protection to the standard 15" alloys on a Lounge. The Cinq Sporting is deadful in that the alloy rim is virtually flush with the tyre wall so first contact felt on a kerb edge is always including metal. My Audi A3 has a good inch of tyre protruding outwards thus protecting the rim and I havent (touch wood, paraniod) marked the wheels once in 50k of driving.
You know the moment when making a rushed parking manouevre :yuck:
Pictures I have looked at of the Lounge wheels make it difficult to tell either way, I saw a 500 with 5 Spoke 16" alloys on today and they looked truly scary in the kerb scrape stakes.
