well saturday as not a good day. i took my wheels to have the tyres put on but they need special valves there high pressuse bolt in valves rather than the standard rubber one that just pull through. so they wont be getting done till monday at the earliest. so should finally have pics soon as long as nothing else goes wrong. -

ive got wheels mate i was just wondering price because my insurance says if my new ones get nicked when there on they will only be replaced with standard fit wheels so, on my sr that would be speedlines i was trying to explain to them that it would cost them more to replace with standard fit!!! (£1000 for speed lines with tyres or 550 tops for something like to ones that im putting on!!!) but they still insist on putting up my excess!! -

You've been ripped off mate! £208!!! How ridiculous is that?!? Then my insurance company want to put my excess up £100 for me putting some alloys on, which they'll only replace with speedlines if anything happens, even though the alloys I've got are cheaper!!! -
Guess how much for a set of speedlines, from toyota, without tyres would cost. More to the point, guess how much a single one would cost. Now, no cheating and ringing toyota! Play fair!

GTs had been released in the UK so there is a comparison for them but glanza's were never available in the UK so thats probably where the problem crops up. I struggled insuring my fiesta too because I'm under 25 and that was modded. All the starlet has on is alloys and an air filter and I still got refused insurance with some of the bigger companies!!!
