OK guys and gals, I've done searches and stuff but either I'm crap at searching (probable) or the info is hidden. What are the wheel and tyre options for a NA? I've only just got Yellow#99 but already I feel the need to test the waters, my Caterham was transformed afer fitting the Yoko A032R's but it doesn't look like this is an option on the vx. I've seen some posts re fitting 48R's but this requires different wheels? I need four new tyres and have a week at the Nurburgring lined up in the next few weeks with trackdays after and possibly before. So what are my options? BTW any advice on wheel cleaners? I know Yellow#99's previous owner enjoyed driving more than cleaning but I've never seen wheels with so much caked on brake dust. The only way I could shift it was with a whole bottle of wonder wheels, a kitchen scouring pad and 3 hours elbow grease! This obviously damaged the paint but tcut paint looks better than caked on brake dust! I tested the missus's oven cleaner on a little section and it was fab at removing the crap, er, and the paint!
