if you want a set now may be a good time to ask, Derek is having a run 1000 made in Germany to his spec, (bolt on no faffing) hopefully possible to ship direct to the uk. :) I'm definitely having 5, price seems ok to.

Where can I find more info about wheels? When you say 'no faffing' do you mean standard studs & no spacers?

They look very similar to the ones that we can get through a national Halfwits type emporium

Not a nice looking wheel IMHO

Careful of those new MT BFG tyres. Dave has a set on his syncro and he reports very poor on road performance. Ask him

I've covered 35kish miles on my mud terrains, few weekends been to Cornwall and back and North Wales and back, getting 34mpg with a kayak on a the roofrack.

Tread wear is very impressive considering the miles as well!

Hark at you with your memory, jealous your wife prefers a bit of southern??

Yeah one blow. Puncture from a large thorn, impressive the tire lasted so long at such low pressures without muggins realising.
