Well they are on.

Vredestein Tyres arrive on Wednesday, although the budgets aren't too bad, (not tried them in the wet yet though!) I'm still going to change them.

Well centres and decals are on their way.

I just keep seeing these on eBay and think these would suit my car better!

Just going to have to be super careful around kerbs due to the 8.5 inch rim and 225 tyres. Should have gone for 235 really.

225 is the correct size.

Chris stay away form those Cruize alloys. They corrode badly after a single winter and can shatter if kerbed. Bloke on one of the Merc forums put some on his SLK.... hit the kerb with one and it literally cracked in two. Replaced it but after one winter all the lacquer was bubbling off.

Cheers for the feedback Chris.

Think I'll stick with the Speedlines. They do look 'right' on the Newage. Just been offered £6k for it too!
