Just a thought. Might be an idea to keep the rivets in a pocket etc for warmth until you're actually going to install each one. With the latest forecast, I can see the low temps making the plastic a bit brittle. It's supposed to be around -5C here tonight..... :cold:

Is that a pack of rivets in your pocket or are you just glad to see me?

Ok, back from holidays and all fitted.
I started by fitting the winter wheel set which left the arches looking empty
With mudflaps on and spacers I had ordered it now looks a lot beefier

They do leave the arches looking a little 'vacant' don't they. Roll on Spring and putting the proper wheels back on.....

Simond, have you put spacers on the fronts as well as the rears? What size spacers did you fit?

I have 25mm spacers at the front
The rear are 60mm spacers made to fit a X6 axle and receive a X5 wheel.

Very good, I'm using the same style of wheels without spacers but have the spigots fitted to the rears.
