Same here - get up, get diesel, pick the little fella up and get there. No more complicated than that and that's the way I like it !

We'll be there, but the RST won't. There's just too much to do.

I need another fortnight really.

I would want to leave them in a warm room for at least a couple of days, as the powder coat stays soft for quite a while

if it was me I would keep them in a nice warm room overnight, then the following day, on the back of the rim, or somewhere not visable, push your finger nail into it and see if it leaves a mark, even so, I would take them to the best tyre fitter you can find
