Fitted a new battery then went for a spin, its the first time in nearly 6 years I have driven my 2.8 with near stock tyres on, they have always been steels with 265/75/16 muds, I have the spare set on now and they are early A series star alloys with 255/75/15 AT's and boy is the car revvier and more nippy
But on the motorway in this wind was interesting, I nearly left a bit of poopoo on my seat, the wind seems to catch the car a bit more (wheels not filling the arches as much?) and the lighter steering due to smaller tyres was also interesting
I had forgot what it was like, I will get used to it soon enough and save fuel and wear on my muds
