they were bloody useful at brands dude... I did test laps on the R888s and I just couldnt get the power down, and the rear end had zero grip
you sorted the 205 problem??

theres been a few varients of this engine though, I know of about 5 cars colin had sold it to, it was 5.5k fitted at PP, so 4k is laughable secondhand.

Well... If I don't go over any big bumps, the 205s are OK. So I might keep them for trackdays, but I'm not sure. I thought it was just the rears that were causing the issue, but the fronts are rubbing too. Both fronts have knocked my sideskirts, and dislodged them - not good.
I'm dying to find some superleggera's, so I can fit some road tyres back on ASAP.
I could take the 205's off and Ebay them, but I think I'd be looking at a BIG loss.

That's fine dude, t'is not your problem anyway.
I was looking at your VTS rims, but I think they are heavy aren't they? A bit of a shitter that I'd need a teeny spacer because of the hi-specs too...
