on route to have a nice meal out with the wife and kids. then got caught by a drivers best friend, Mr council cant be ars** to fill me in pot hole. i am to put it rather politely rather angry

been looking round to find a replacement but they dont make them anymore. just typical. so with needing 2 new tyres anyway at silly money for 19's am gonna downgrade to 18's but with a budget of exactly 628 quid im pretty stuck. been on alloywheels.com and i think im going for these. well not much choice really.

there round have rubber on them and hold wind. what do u think
