The trip to dorset went swimmingly she cruised at whatever speed i chose no wobbling or wandering much more enjoyable... So as expected some photos of her With One Of Her Friends With her french mate With Another Rather Large Chum No Trees Were Harmed In The Taking Of These Photos (because i was at a window) All Her Friends Went Away -
Raining in Scotland Looking forward to seeing pics of her new stance (eventually)..

They were called Primwell PZ900 XL and for two 205/40 R17 84w tyres it cost me £109.98 All in Including Fitting I chose them because they compared with a top brand name selling at £114.00 Each They Scored 72db on road noise which was identical to the branded ones They scored a B rating for braking in the wet which was identical to the branded ones But an F in economy (like anybody will notice that or like i give a) And reinforced sidewalls They were worth the risk as my original tyres were very bad and i had to get them quick time on a budget but as it turns out it payed off because i am actually impressed with them and shall be changing the backs for the same ones soon.. -
Late to the party as usual LOL.. Re the H badge i thought the Honda Legend came with gold badges, and a gold grill surround (obviously thats no good for you) although prob not many in breakers now days

Excellent this is first time i have used one of those services i normally trundle off to my best tyre center and buy whatever they have in stock where-as those sites.. LOADS of choices Im here to entertain you all, and im here all week -
Cheers bud that is indeed a good price, but that deal will prob not last and i just can not come up with the funds quick enough. still who knows i may find a way of finding cash.

Drove around tonight in the wet for the first time since fitting new front tyres they were cheap but i compared the specs on the site i used to expensive well known brand names and picked the best on a budget One thing they scored was a B in braking in the wet (scores go from A to F) which is pretty damn impressive and i can announce after many braking and cornering tests in the P###ing rain that they performed handsomely So well infact that nearly all the understear im used to was totally eradicated (no soaring away at the wheel through every bend).. They held so well in fact that on more than one occasion the back end overtook me with its old tyres which was really good fun made the night all the better... -
LOL poxy insurance.. But its the little mods that make a big difference

Picked her up from my mechanic a couple of hours ago my track rod end ball joints had gone on both sides and she killed her front tyres and handled like a clown car They were so worn that it split one of the boots on the new cv joints i had done at christmas so i went to my friend at the autofactors and bought a whole new cv joint+boot kit as it had knackered the joint already and a replacement boot kit for the other side as that one i could see stress signs and two tie rod ends Cost me £45.00 the lot.. List price £70.00 +vat £84.00 My mechanic charged my £100.00 to fit and he had it tracked for me which was £25.00 So £170.00 to sort and what a difference now my wheels are not nearly falling off Oh and the tyres i got from an online service who come to you to fit called Grippy.co.uk they were very good and great prices compared to others round this way.... -
Just checked back on your thread (been a little while since i last checked) and THOSE RIMS..... Mate they are off the scale i really like the look they proper suit the car... I love the way on this site that you can see a M in the flesh and think yeah sorted then a very short time later check up on the build thread and it looks totally different 8-) and in most cases as in this one for the better... Evidence of previous look below message in sig....
