new tyres on my tin top
graememk - 28/6/08 at 09:18 AM

just had some 225 50 17's fitted to the front of the vectra, @ £180 a side

took the car back to be rebalanced this morning as the vibration was very bad, that now sorted now i have a scratch around the outside of both wheels from there machine.

as i'm a sad git i always take photos of my wheels and any damage on them before i take it to have tyres and they were 100% perfect

anyone else had this problem ?? and what happend.

make a claim against them!
i took my rough looking wheels to a local garage to have the tyres swapped and they made every effort to not damage them they even gave them a wipe down when they had finished
why you not using 215/50/17?
link i hope
