That's why there's a "traction control off" switch.

So no pressure then!

Excellent news! Well done.

Gotcha... comparison.

'OMG' indeed...

Good news.

Those LOOK awesome, but the threads from the BMW forums really aren't promising. I would say there's no smoke without fire and just avoid them... Also: The implication being that Rotas are no good...?
-
No worries. Never again! Yeah, you can't really go wrong I've found. NOT something I'm going to repeat!!
-
Yeah I had a look myself and couldn't see it... Maybe I will just pay in advance.
-
Interesting... I'm at least prepared to believe I was VERY low this time around anyway, but yeah I suppose you never can know exactly how much fuel is actually going in when you fill up.

Triple post...

Double post.

Dammit I'm working this weekend. I'm finishing at 1230 on Saturday, though so would it still be worth my while turning up? If everyone else reckons they'll stillbe there I'm up for it as Dunsfold Park is only round the corner from me. Can you pay on the gate, incidentally, or is it advance booking only?
-
It can't hurt to give it a try if you're prepare to paint them should it fail. Personally I would (and have!) just get them painted because it freshens up the front of the car no end, with or without the chrome rings. Why not try colour matching the inserts to your car? That could look very Ferrari 360-esque... Good luck, anyway!

Wash your mouth out, that man!! Corbeau Sprint XL. Full spec in my (recently updated) garage.

That's the first (and LAST!) time I let her get below 25%...
