..think that the combination of tyres and wheel design on the Cup chassis is the most unforgiving of any day to day car? :evil:
Noticed a mark on the drivers side rear tyre on the Mrs car, was literally a 1" mark but stood out against the black rim. Now bearing in mind the car is never parked near a kerb, whether it be at home or the Mrs work.
Neither of us can recall doing it so I can only assume it's got damaged not from hitting a kerb but from actually driving the car day to day, whether it be a small pot hole or rough bit of tarmac.
As much as the car looks good and handles brilliantly, I can't help thinking that the tyre choice they opted for is actually pretty stupid considering it's designed to be a day to day car? The other day I pulled up at a mates house and parked alongside a dipped kerb, as in near as damnit flat concrete, yet when I got out and looked there was probably less than 1cm of tyre between the alloy and the kerb. :shock:
I can't help thinking that finding a used Twingo 133 with Cup rims that aren't damaged is going to be rare.
