Can't be too sure yet, they're brand new, I can see problems arising when it comes to cleaning, however I have children for this  ;) ;)

Andy, I was right in thinking you said your brother has a 7 series with 20" alloys? If he has, is there any chance you could ask him what size tyres he's running, I know I've slightly bigger on the front but only I think 5mm up on the profile and it's rubbing the arch liner on full lock, not enough to cause a problem or anything, but if you could ask?

Unfortunately he recently changed it. I'll ask if he can remember what he had fitted, but I doubt he'll know.  :-\

Sorry Del, he didn't know  :( It takes him all his time to put air in tyres let alone know what size they are  ;D ;D
