Thanks, Golfbuddy.

That left rear Yokohama in the bottom pic is a little smoother now.

Better leave that TC button alone... ;)

Yokohamas on an Omega. Now there's a thought  [smiley=evil.gif].

Nice set of AVS Sports.... Wear could be a problem for me though :(

 Nice looking motor, like the wheels 8-).

   Shame about the damage but looks like you got away with just the boot lid ::).

Kevin, they're S306s. Cheaper, harder compound, and easier to get sliding. :y

They've lasted a lot longer than the Avons I had before which were as soft as a bath sponge and lasted five minutes.

Pete, the back of the Hilux just grazed the black top of the bumper, so I decided to live with it...

I think the are 'AVS Sports' as Kevin mentioned, but i too thought the looked like Steinmetz, i reconise them from Palmers track car.

Nice alloys, although i think they suit the facelift better personally.

Still looks good though  :y

Yes, they're Steinmetz alloys.

I didn't like them at first, but they've kind of grown on me now.

tunnie, they are Yokohama S306s, about £85+vat each if you know where to look....235/45/17 I think.

My left rear is getting a little low.........Must leave that TC button alone... ::)
