I wouldnt bother with them mate honestly grip is terrible in the wet and turn into slicks in the snowy conditions.

The camber has buggered the insides of mine so need to get that sorted before new rubber is fitted.
Do i need any special bit to have the camber adjusted or can any garage do it with whats on the car the way it is?

That is what I have been recommended for the mammoth rims on my Punto.

A mate used to use them but swapped over to Toyo's and now swears by them.
I haven't had them on any of my cars, but drove his a few times. Gripped well in the dry, weren't great in the wet, and he stacked it on a bend with them on (not that they should be judged by that!) seem to wear quickly too - quicker than Toyo's he's found.

Toyo 4s are terrible imo.
Those kumho ones dont get good ratings in wet weather as there only a summer tyre.
