Hi Justin, Put up the hardtop last weekend to get ready for winter, but struggling to match it evenly and fix it without irritating movement. It does look rather well, tough, retaining the cabrio look. Also struggling whith wheel and tyre sizes, as my OZ 7J 15 35 looks are certainly ok, but stering and tracking seems to be less than when fitting the "original" Quantum 6J 14 35 TWS alloys with 185-60-14 tyres. Now found some 61/2 J 50-15 alloys, which tend to keep in track and looks as well, fitted with 5 mil spacers. These have the same centreline measurements as the 14"TSW when you calculate the ET and rim depts. They need a refurbishment though. Will keep the TSW for winter...
See you!
