Hi good guys..I've been thinking whether I should get a set of winter alloys with winter tyres bolted to them as I have with my Honda..as I live like an hour away from work and the road are a bit crappy..I run 18's on my Honda and have 17" as my winters and are great..I was looking at 15" ford alloys for the winters..any of you guys have this for our JK8's?

Cheers

I'm picking up my search for these tyres for the existing alloys now..still looking

If its only for winter you might want to think about a set of cheap steel wheels. The salt isn't good for alloys anyway and it'll save a lot of dosh.

I have different alloys and tyres for the Honda but not for the Ford as I dont have enough room for yet another set of wheels in the garage plus I bought the same sized tyres for the B-Max..so will change hopefully next week..

On another note..how to get the locking wheel nut off these? as its a flat type nut cover..unlike my Honda which has McGard Locking nuts.

Jimmy, you should have been given a locking wheel nut key when you bought the car. the nut may look round but it has an erratic base to fit the key.

I've not seen anything but havent really looked apart from the petrol nozzle thingy..

anyway hopefully the tyre garage will be able to sort it as its all booked in for Saturday morning..
