Falken ZE912 vs FK452 Tyres
Nice one mate will do! Ive always spoken to matey with the tattoos up his arms and he's always gone out his way to help! Think they probably just dont have them in my size - measly 17's :(

Falken ZE912 vs FK452 Tyres
I tried ALS tyres Warfield mate - they took my tyres off for free and seem pretty reasonable so i was wanting to give them business, but they cant get hold of 452's. Where abouts is AST? Binfield?

Zed regular check list

Falken ZE912 vs FK452 Tyres
My local trye garage only sells ZE912's, at £75 each. This seemed pretty reasonable to me, but is there a big difference between the ZE912 and the FK452's?

You all have to read this!!!
Sh*t me! The bids suggest that its possibly real.. unless of course friends have bidded it up?? Fair play if it sells - a £mill would help get over the ex for sure!

Stupid question... but are these coilovers actually height adjustable or just tension adjustable.

1. Vodkashots 2. Steve Burns 3. Rcoubrough (Ryan) - Should hopefully get the zed back on the road in time if i get my ass in to gear! Yeah i took a few peeps from a day centre that i used to work out round there a few years back- some quality cars there. Loving the batmobile!!

Saab update, if you haven't all lost the will to live yet, like I have
Its not that the police dont 'bother' - they will. I know for sure that they will go out their way to resolve matters outside the criminal aspect. However if the idiot does not cooperate there is nothing the police can do as it is not a criminal matter. If it was CPS who made the decision...why are police worthless?? Do you not think the polcie are extremely frustrated by the amount of times they will do all they can to get someone to court and the CPS wont run with it? Anyway, back to the original topic... As long as you are willing to put in the effort, you should be able to achieve the results :thumbup1: especially if Mikey can put in his word to prove the condition of the Saab.

Stretching tyres
Righto... Having had a chance to read over all the comments it looks like most of you are pro stretched tyres. I'll sEe if I can squeeze some 225's onto my rears! :lol:

Brake pads
What brake pads would you recommend for value for money / performance... I don't plan to take my zed to track days, nor drive around pushing it to the max. Would Mintex front pads be ok for general day to day driving?
-
Stretching tyres
haha thought i might get that response! Deep dishes are part of the Euro scene though and they are widely accepted by the zedding community. I believe deep dishes and stretched tyres go hand in hand.... But i guess reducing the amount of tread on the road can only mean a sideways zed when driving in the rain??
-
Rusty Coilovers...
Anything that you would recommend Dougal??

Rusty Coilovers...
