Amey, fill nitrogen from the get-go. You'll enjoy the tyres even more.

I don't mean to sound like a spoilsport but a small word of caution -

PLEASE AVOID PURCHASING WHEELS WHICH HAVE 2 PCDS MACHINED IN THEM (100 / 114.3 OR 139.7 / 160 ETC). IT AFFECTS THE STRUCTURAL RIGIDITY. ALSO, PLEASE BE EXTREMELY CAREFUL WITH THE NUT PROFILE (118 DEGREE TAPER OR SPHERICAL SEAT). AND THE VALVE CONSTRUCTION. THERE ARE STANDARDS AVAILABLE. IN PRODUCTION, WE ARE RUTHLESS FOR COMPLIANCE. PLEASE DO NOT PAY GOOD MONEY TO SPOIL YOUR CAR. ALL OF YOU PLEASE BE VERY VERY CAREFUL EVERY TIME. IF YOU WANT ANY FURTHER INFORMATION, PLEASE CONTACT ME, I WILL DEFINITELY HELP.

Best regards,

Behram Dhabhar

Amey,
Nice choice of Rims. They gel with the car very well. The Lenso Samurai Series are forged rims. The advantages of forged rims are that they are be stronger and lighter.

Behram's post has got me worried too. The alloys on all my cars are multi-pcd.
