Agree Rob but I,m thinking of going down the route of two sets of wheels the T1-Rs for the winter and R888's for the summer.
The T1-R's get quite a good review on the lotus forum and they are good value, some people are running R888'S all year round but I think things start to get a bit interesting in the greasy winter.

Matt, rears are about knackered, fronts are ok for now.
