Nah.. "murphy" usually comes round my place........ :roll:

I have bent 2 merc rims so far, both off road, first when a rock went up the sidewall and bent the rim, then second time was I clouted a log (log isnt the right word really, it bust the endcap before the wheel...) hidden in undergrowth... I wasnt creeping along either..... :oops: :oops:

We are there again on the 28th June.. :ok

Finally done it, the 15s are on with the 195R15 Powerguards, took it for a run and everything seems nice and workable.
Here's a couple of photos & thanks for all the advice etc. They fill up the arches that bit better in my opinion, shiny black wheel finish courtesy of Dulux outdoor gloss found in the shed.

Everything took longer than it should due to my clutch problems, but all sorted as of this morning. (Cheers again Aidan for the help with getting the extra parts :D )
What a long strange trip it's been
