Kev, it might be the camera angle or the fairly wide angle lense but it the arch covering enough tyre for SVA?

Didn't mean to panic you mate

Looks really neat from what I can see - the colour contrast is really striking.

Great colour scheme and wheel tyre combination. Just the look I would pick myself.

Same scheme but Pinto power. Not as tidy job though, I'm jealous.

I proud of my "locost" rs alloys though.

SVA FAIL - All OK except seatbelt upper mounts. I did have the spare tyre & cover on at the time

Will make a proper job next time.

SVA retest expires end Feb

Looks great Kev, love the wheels/tyres.

Im sure you know, but from the SVA manual, reflectors are 250mm min and 400mm max from the ground.
