Evening all,
I've got an 04 172 and got a few little niggles I could use some help/advice on please?

2) I've...
Had my 172 for 3 years in october and a little undecided what to do next, I've fell out of love with the 172 a little and I always wanted a blue 182 but couldnt quite afford it 3 years ago. Do I trade mine in for a newer lower milage 182 in blue or push myself a bit a get a 197 was thinking I'd...

I'm due some new tyres on the front. I thought standard 172 wheels needed 205/45/16 tyres however I've checked my current tyres and they're 195/45/16. My question is are 205s much better? should I be using 205s or will 195s do? and if I do get 205s will it matter that the fronts are 205 and the...
