Stunning looking car. Hope you have many fun miles.

If you are worried about the wheels offset, it might pay you to take it for an MOT.

I cannot comment on the MOT but suggest you pay close attention when parking as the front alloys in particular are prone to scuffs. Alloygaters are are option but not so straightforward to fit as they are not designed for the Speedster alloy & tyre combo. I've seen them fitted on another Speedster and they look fine so planning to do the same.

Any ideas, is this a voltage regulator/stabiliser issue or?

How far do the tyres extend, from memory you are allowed 40 mm and 25 mm of tread.

Here's a shot of mine - do they stick out more?

No, look the same to me. I noticed it from other pictures of the car with standard wheels. Just seems odd that they get away with it!!
