I would be removing my winter wheels and tyres from my 997 in the next few weeks. You would have been welcome to borrow, but they are located in ABZ, and crucially i have no idea whether they would fit. My car is a 2010 Gen2 C2. Its the 18 inch wheels thats got the winters on them.

Thoroughly kind offer!

Shame it was ignored :roll:

Wasn't ignored... Was appreciated.

Think it was obvious to most that it wasn't really feasible though.

Happy now?!?!

Just had a nice chat with Gemma in EK.

Probably easiest all round if I just pop the wheels in there. They do all Glasgow OPC's work apparently too and you get a years warranty.

Just need the car back now!!!

Thanks to all who offered help!!

I got mine done in Prestwick and you drop the car off and then pick it up. 200 notes all in, and they are walking distance from the train station.

It's not a perfect job but it's good enough, it's just a car at the end of the day.
