sure blue, i hear you, the tyres on that wheel there were 45's, the difference between a 50 and a 45 on surface damaged roads could be the difference between a new rim and a new tyre or just a new tyre.

just putting some food for thought.

also the roads could be considerably better now, or if he's up in somewhere like valencia where roads are newer it may not even be worthy of consideration.


NB. with porsche split rims i take potholes carefully, i dont fancy having to cough up for new rims and P-Zero Rosso's every few months.

The PITA here in the UK at the moment is stonechip damage.. the front of the porsche needs attending to from chip rash, but wont bother until the roads get better and have done three windshields (different cars one was the boxster - 5 inch crack due to stone on m-way) this year alone.
