Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    Just wondering , i am doing a lot of backroad driving at the moment, and the low profile tyres just arent as comfortable as they would be on the better main roads. Should I consider downgrading to 16inch Alloys? any thoughts?

    Hey Mate

    Your 17's will get destroyed (chipped, bent warped) if you are constantly driving on back roads.

    might be an idea to get 16's and get a big fat tyre on it.

    but its all relative. new tyres and 16 inch alloys could cost more than replacing a set of 17s
