Hey Adrian, so they'll get noisier when they wear a bit? Coz the tyres have a bit of wear on them already as they were 2nd hand - still no noise. Well, Kal thinks they're a bit noisy but I don't.

Hi Doreen, I have updated my Garage but no pics in there yet. But here you go..........

Good grief VR brakes look tiny behind VRX wheels!!

i found them ok for noise, until I got replacements which were much quieter.

Thanks Doreen! Yours too!

Yeah, am definitely gonna get it lowered. Your getting yours lowered aren't you? I would also love a Ralliart bonnet but I'm guessing they're really expensive. Anyone know how much they are? Shane?

Thanks Dor! Yeah, I thought the RA bonnets would be a couple of thousand at least...... out of our price range I'm afraid.
