Right, I've decided I'm going for the Vredesteins. It was the tyre I wanted before the tread put me off but I know the tread is the least of my concerns when buying a tyre, I was just being fussy!
So I've had to upsize to 235 and 265 tyres and I'll have them ordered this week and fitted next weekend. I'll let you know how I get on.
Next up, wheels refurbed and spacers
