There are a few sets on fleabay at the minute (I routinely look for them near to me too!). Have seen a set of 17s with good as new tyres on from the 2nd gen facelift model....think they are listed at £525 [emoji27] Also a set of 16s from an XT for £250 These are both Fozzie wheels Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Don't know mate, sorry. The standard fit offset is 48 I believe, but not really sure if 55 takes it in or out, so to speak lol [emoji14] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

On that matter (dash-cams) I got this reply from the local police (that I get on well with thanks to neighbourhood watch) on whether they'd be able to prosecute based on in car footage I took (when I get my dash cam). Asked cos I'm getting sick of being cut up on a daily basis now by dumb-f**k boy racers "David, apologies it has taken me a little while to get back to you. I have forwarded your query to our Road Policing Unit for clarification, I'm aware that the use of on board cameras is something which is on the rise for not only cars but cycles too. Our advice is that such footage could and would be used in the same way for evidential purposes firstly providing that the equipment was mounted correctly within the vehicle and not hand held whilst driving.One thing I would possibly recommend taking into consideration and is something officers at times are required to do, should footage not be able to be removed easily i.e. to USB etc devices may then need to be seized in their entirety. Every piece of footage would be examined individually and based on the unique circumstances of each case it would be decided by the investigating officer or CPS if the footage was deemed suitable to use as evidence if any offences were captured on such footage, and any incidents reported via 101 in the same way as any other non emergency incident. I hope this helps, Regards Vikki." I'll get the b@stards done if it kills me haha

Yes, I think it's still there mate. I don't recall it giving me other sizes, but this site does though ;) http://www.wheel-fitment.com/car/Subaru/Forester%20(2003%20-%202008)/ Here's yours too fella: http://www.wheel-fitment.com/car/Subaru/Forester%20(1997%20-%202002)/

I don't think I'm searching for re-inforced....not intentionally anyway. Up to now I've just put 205/70/15H in but will be searching T-rated now too

Just give him the royal wave lol

I think you have to put them in 'long-hand'....a bit **** really : - ) lol

Top man.....be good to put a face to a name stants :D

Indeed mate......those Hankook's defo on the radar now ^_^

Can't answer your question, but the thought of 7000rpm made me smile.... ....sorry...my bad ;)

Ok - quick update on this one. Just spoken to my insurance company (RAC) regarding the speed rating issue. The advice I was given was that I would need to inform them, but as long as the tyre size wasn't changing, it would just get 'noted' on my policy, but other than that, they would have no problem with it :) Cue many more hours spent researching T-rated tyres now......my wife will despair

Today I have mostly enjoyed watching the rain beading and running off my waxed bonnet

Omg I'm banking on half of that lol Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Swap around arranged for next Wednesday - best get saving for a full set of 4 later this year now

I'm 100% in Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I'm still on the lookout for an official Subaru Forester dog guard, if anybody is looking to get rid of one. Needs to be in good condition. The odd one comes up on fleabay from time to time, but I won't be ripped off postage-wise, which seems to be the case on there with these. They can be sent by courier for close on £10 I've found. Happy to wait for the right one :) Thanks David

Me too mate. Many years ago when we rented a house just after we got married, the lad we were renting off tried to withhold our bond due to the carpets being dirty. The cheeky ****** had a nerve, as we left the house in better condition than we found it. So I took him to court, won, and got a CCJ taken out against him. He refused to pay, so I found out where he worked. I then applied to have the money deducted from his salary at source, at which point he paid up instantly - and more than he'd originally had to as he now had to cover our additional costs. Too many wankers in this world thinking they can just do what the F they like......not in my world they don't!!! 'rant ends' :P

Yeah....I'd let the !Removed! try and take it to court....less than zero chance of success and he'd end up out of pocket Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
