  1. Shit man, thats even worse!! You can get some lightweight (road) ones for under 2k. I'll see if I can find the company that sells them.

    They look like the same wheels as they fit to the MV Augusta Dragstar, I’m sure the look is deceiving. Lots of strength in them there wheels :)
     
  6. before road repairs were subcontracted to 'price per fill contractors' the hole was cleaned, filled, compacted and sealed perimeter with tar. Now its tarmac chucked in and whacked down. Water runs straight in and blows at the first frost. These bastards should be held accountable, and repair teams put back on the books. Problem is the councils are all but broke, while taking more taxes than ever. Well they have been run well havent they? jail is the only place for the fat exec's. bastard cunts

  8. Personally I'd avoid Carbon wheels, seen too many disintegrate over the years. If you insist on Carbon wheels look at Dymag. Would stick to either OZ or Marchesini tbh. However its just my opinion. For the value you could buy a set of Magnesiums instead. Anyway good luck with the outcome.

  9. Well........ after 90 days, numerous emails, and the British summer nearly over, the council have finally admitted liability and have refunded me the full amount for damages!!
