I have just fitted the A3 Pepperpot wheels which I bought on here with a new set of 195/55 x 15 Continental tyres, and fitted them to the A2. I rather like the look, but judge for yourself below. Note newly applied A2OC badges too!
You might have read in my other thread about odd tyre wear, and I certainly did not feel too confident with the 175 Dunlops that were on it before. The front of the car felt a mite under-tyred to me, no doubt not helped by the wear on them. In vigourous cornering they felt as if they were almost "tucking under" if you know what I mean. The slightly wider Contis make the car feel altogether much better, and the ride is still good too.
The car feels more like it's mine now that I have changed a few details.
