So very worn 16" (225/55/16) on the back and worn 17" (235/45/17) on the front?  :o
Fixed :P

The rear will eventually follow the front ;D

Joking aside, I know its not ideal, but the old rears were illegal  :-X (and a suspension issue as well), and I needed to get to work. So I nicked tunnie's old ones, and cruised in to work at the speed limit. What a pleasant drive in it was, no doubting those Falkens on the back are quiet.

However, it was a bad day, and I was 2.5hrs late leaving work...  ...and I had to keep stopping on way home as the callout guy needed info on a pesky Linux server that had decided to self destruct.  So the poor TBE got a bloody good spanking for the last 10 miles. The suspension issue did not show its face, the car was as stable as I've ever known TBE (still not a patch on the Bullet), but the rear end grip was abysmal, as expected  ::)
