Default Rollin' on 20s

I wasn't planning on upgrading the wheels...but as I have got 385mm S8 discs and calipers to fit at some point, there was a need for an upgrade.

Having now put some on the 8, i must admit, they do fill the arches that much better. I haven't noticed an enormous difference in the hardness of the ride but you can tell ever so slightly.

Also interesting to see up close how the diamond cut is 'sealed' in with what can only be described as a laminated plastic.

These will be getting a diamond cut refurb at some point but not for a little while still....we'll need to get the new brake setup underneath there first
