Thanks Tom.

Gunna get the gearbox oil changed and possibly a remap in the next few weeks.


Been severely tempted to blow obscene amounts of money on silly wheels and brakes also.

I have a gravel drive, no where to jack it up. It's going in anyway so may as well save myself the effort.

Quality ok? No idea who makes them. Second hand gen CH's aren't horrific, but would likely need painting and obviously need to wait for the right size fitment comes up.

It would have to be black otherwise it wouldn't be a proper Arctic! I'm tempted to just keep wheels standard and get some huge brakes instead
