Cars got her Summer Sandles back on.

Well winter is finally away ( I hope ) and today I decided to get the car in summer mode and started to clean the car for the first time in 4 months. !

Then it was time to get the 15" Winter shoes off, and on with the 18" Summer Shoes with four band new socks ! I had polished them up in the garage ready for this day to come, and even treated the car to wider 20mm spacers on the rear from my existing 15mm ones which I will then put on the front after I get a friend to bore the lip out slightly so they will fit over the front hubs and hence push the wheels to the edge.
The rears sit sweeter then ever now to the edge with a 3mm gap to the body! The rears are 255x35x18" tyres on a 9.5J wheel and 20mm spacer.
