    Wheels

    When I used the plastic rings that came with my wheels 2 of them definitely shrank a bit (think the front ones...) as they would stick to the hubs and fall out of the wheels where as the other 2 would stick in the wheels like new. Not sure they'll actually melt but they'll definitely not retain the out of box shape/size!

    4 Wheels In The Car

    I've had 4 in, well, 5 as I've got a full spare in the spare wheel well. Seats down and 3 on the boot / back of seats and the 4th on top of those 3.

    Weight of an alloy...

    My 10.2kg wheels were plenty good enough when it was wet in the morning at Blyton in the TSS at the start of this year

    Help! Can't get V-Power...

    I'd agree with this, don't think there's much different in the fuels (supermarket / non-supermarket). Supermarkets can sell it cheaper because they can use the main store profits to afford thinner margins. They're also in competition with each other - supermarkets want you to buy as much as they offer from them so if they can get you to the shop via cheap fuel prices, you're more likely to go shopping in their store than a competitors.

    Insurance for a 20 year old :(

    How would they know? Unless it's because you'll have more years NCD than you've had your license for, in which case, I've yet to have an issue!

    Winter Tyres

    If I was on my own, I'd happily go out in the snow (got caught a couple of winters ago in some snow - enough to cover the kerbs - and didn't have major issues once I accepted that accelerating wasn't going to happen ) - it's the other people out there that would stop me going out. Even with winter tyres, just because you've got grip, chances are other people don't and someone could easily end up sliding straight into you...

    Introducing DIXCEL Brake Pads

    I was going to say ES (they're the ones I had last year) but Z's description suggests street + track...

    Insurance for a 20 year old :(

    Heard similar before, same with on drive vs on road parking. If they have a bunch of claims from people reversing into gate posts or the garage (how?!) then they'll bump the premium up for those parking on a drive / in a garage.
