Which alot of people noticed when the awards were being presented.. :oops: I never ever thought I would come away with a result like this, so I'm still very much \:D/ The cour...

Re: Spigot Rings ??? Anyone had any success with them ??? ALL SORTED NOW !

Ok all done and dusted ! Couple of things : Spigot rings in place and the fella doing the job (same one as before) said the equipment had been recalibrated since the first time - rechecking the balancing and it was out 20g on one front wheel and 10g on the other 3 ! So might pay for anyone having t...

Re: Wheel Wobble/Vibration

Thankyou for all your replies to this thread, The general consensus points to buckled alloys.. They were already on the car when I purchased it, so I can't say what may have happened to them before I owned it, also I did some homework, and it turns out that a new set would cost me in the region of £...

Re: Wheel Wobble/Vibration

Could it be that one of your wheels are buckled? Are they OEM or after market wheels etc? I had a very similar problem, had them balance perfectly a good few times but could never get rid of the wobble at about 70 but after I had new wheels fitted yesterday the car is fine now... thankyou for reply...

of wobble/vibration coming through to the steeering, about 70-80 it's the worst..

Re: Red Dead Redemption

For me I am running around trying to complete the tasks for my Assasin's Outfit. Pretty good game but I don't quite like the multiplayer. Seems like you need to team up to do any good. I'm always alone :( All I do is randomly pick out NPC mission areas. If no other people are around to grieve me I ...

I can't express enough delight at this result, It's been on the cards for sometime now, and patience has finally paid off. The Torque feels amazing, Ryan needed to get out of the car at least twice to secure the straps on the rollers, it was fighting to get off.. Ryan gave me a heads up warning befo...
