Do you have any problems with it rubbering on the arches?? I've got a website that do the 3 and 5 degree plates and I'm very tempted to go for 3 myself. Did you notice a difference?? Sorry for all the questions...

Oh yeh my bad lol, remember you've only fitted them recently.....it's been a busy week for me at work lol, not bothered about tyre wear. However I'm really keen to get my old bus to handle well (some people think ive brought the wrong car for handling but i know they aint scared of a few tight bends once done and setup correctly) I'll be keen to know what they are like once she hanging around a track again
