    I hope you like it then! One thing that takes getting used to is judging the width of it, it feels really wide in there. Plus when all the sensors start going off while you're squeezing through a gap doesn't help matters. Which dealers did you try? Who are you buying from?

    I'll be getting smaller wheels after I've moved. The roads around me are littered with potholes and once the rain comes you don't even know they're there, until you've hit one. Also, cheaper tyres are a plus :D
