I know... i feel very fortunate considering the climate, nevertheless i'm running at last summers capacity now, i really don't know how i'm going to cope in a month or two. Congratulations on the coils. Regarding your capacity, any chance of a job . Finish uni in a month and I'm not sure what im going to do.

The reasons most people stretch tyres is because they are then much less likely to foul the arches, when running wide wheels with a low offset. Also police allegedly only have issues with wheel poking out the arches when the tread is out the arch, so if the tyre is stretched and the tread is inside the arch its legal. I have little problem with say a 195 45 15 on an 8J rim, but anymore is a little extreme and I wouldn't use them on the road. Mostly because I enjoy driving my car hard on occasions and want the grip/ handling and the knowledge that my insurance isn't void.

This stuff is the absolute business. Have a read of the Opie oils site on the issue... it exceeds 5.1 standards Yes it is, but it absorbs water pretty quickly so needs changing often, I have read as little as 4-6 months, also needs changing if you boil it. Good for track-days though. 5.1 is a good compromise, and you shouldn't manage to boil it on the road in anything other than exceptional circumstances. What do you think of the ds2500's? just put these and some braided lines on my civic, they just bite harder and harder the hotter they get. Very impressed.
