Hi, I was driving past evolve automotive the other day & thought I'd get my troublesome wheels checked for excess runout-they have a rolling road which makes that kind of stuff pretty convenient, definitely recommended :thumbsup:

Run out was negligible Stu, it certainly felt good driving home after their attention :driving:

How much did they charge, Rob?

And what did they say?

(p.s. I hope it was good, because it looks as if the baftads have pinched some of the trim from under your repeaters.)
