C1 through C8 on display
Thanks everyone for their responses. Found a wonderful tire shop in Surrey…Premier Mobile Tires and Detailing. His google reviews are off the charts (4.9 out of 5.0). Thomas has all the high end equipment for dealing with forged rims and is a true professional and very reasonably priced. If you...
No not racing my car. One of the quotes was from my dealer. Seems like the road force balance is very pricey….am thinking it may be better to wait the road force to when I get a new set of tires. The tires I am swapping onto new rims have 1/2 their tread life left so a regular balance might be...

I know Rolls Royce has had gymballed center caps for a few years but that is the only marque I know that has used them. Paragon Performance has just put them on their website (can pre order for US$170 for the four mechanisms) for the C8 but you have to modify your OEM center caps yourself. Great...
