Today I've had a set of Vredesteins fitted.

I prepped the car last night so that I could whip the wheels off today and take them down to the garage in the Polo.

This is where jacking beams and wooden blocks are invaluable.



A closer view:







And here's the result:

I spent a couple of hours painting the balance weights black. The current weights are often steel and will rust if not protected. Sometimes they are Zinc based.

I much prefer the look of the shelves in your garage. Mine are stuffed with tins of paint... wine

Unfortunately they are all empty, but a handy way to remember what we like.

In case it's not obvious, we like wine.

Red on one side, white on the other

Very organised

Don't tell me it's also organised into countries and regions as well

Wouldn't be surprised if the shelves were covered with a thin layer of neoprene..
