After lots of thought and worry if these would fit my car, they only chuffin do!!! well happy, haven't gotta put them on flea bay now either, get some 225 or bigger for the back and ill be well away.

cheers marco also.

p.s.no calling me 'mini spadge' either , and the ignore the front, work in progress as the rad is about knackered.
