Hi Guys

Just to say I had the 4 wheel alignment done at Feltham tyres today. evidently it was way out especially at the rear and the difference its made is amazing.. Much better ride and the car seems to have lost the urge to change direction over every single bump in the road.. I had all four wheels balanced at the same time as I was getting some vibration which turned out to be one of the rears out of balance...

Considering I has four new F1's a week ago (not bought at Feltham tyres) you would think the garage would have balanced them properly but it appears this was not the case.

Thanks for your advice guys..

Incidently my wheel nuts are buggered, those stupid chrome caps are useless !! Popped into rover in Slough today and they want nearly £ 120 for a full set with locking nuts but as usual they didnt have any in stock !! Are there any 'third party' wheel nuts that do a better job ?

I assume you were buying 16 then! They should be about 7 quid each I think, bought some from the SMC stealership a little while back.....
