Little update - I was having an odd occasional grindy noise from the rear, after much trouble shooting by APT and speaking to Alyn at AS Performance came to the conclusion that it was the nearly new bearing I had fitted along with a worn drive flange, Alyn provided replacements for both and happy to say problem seems sorted.

One shiny new drive flange

There was barely a difference between the old and the new drive flang however there was play in it.

Also to add finally got round to refurbing my winter wheels BUT the colour isn't right so they will be going back to be painted the right shade. You can see from the centre caps of my other spare set the difference.

And :) - now got orange side lights - going to have the fronts shortly.

Ignore it's dirty Stu :)

Thanks fella :)

I can't wait to refit the original stickers - I bought some non-original side stickers but they just weren't right.

So much yes Ben. Love the fact you're rolling on original wheels, when you get them in the right shade and you have the genuine decals. It's going to be superb. :hurray:
