Hi,

is this your restored 1.3? Looks very nice Very Happy

Which size are the tyres?

By the way, is it imported? The license plate is from 2002 or 2003 I believe.

Cheers,

Marcin

It was registered in Holland in December 2002. The tyre size is 195/50 R15.

But I may consider lowering it a bit - makes the wheels look slightly more comfortable. What's your opinion? Very Happy

Actually the car looks very Cool

with those wheels. Don't you feel the rubber touching the wheel arches sometimes? Especially on the bumps with some load in the back. I used to have 195/50/15 on my alfa for some time, but the problem mentioned above made me change them back to original R13. Maybe I could have changed the springs for stiffer ones instead...

Take care

Marcin

Looks a perfect height to me, certainly lower than our s2s. Lovely car and superb photography. I was going to make a smart-alec crack about the glories of an English Summer, but then I remembered that James was in Holland and that dig wouldn't work. Anyway we've had the worst floods in 50 years in parts of NZ so maybe I'd better not go down that road. Embarassed

All that aside, I love the mist in the trees( being a keen shooting man) and I think the pics are worth printing off and framing.
Regards Eddie
