Good find joe - I tend to use supertyres although by the looks of it there is another place closer...

They accept the 5% off voucher too... Quests in Braintree have a Hunter system but they seem to be more expensive... Had a chat with Supertyres and they seem great... Since having the car raised the vibration has all but disappeared on my car and the guy there said it's probably front wheel balancing or only a very slight adjustment, so it shouldn't cost me much to sort at all...

Probably partly alignment and partly because the S-spokes are so heavy they tramline a lot, my R50 did and that was on S-spokes

Hmm interesting. I decided to get my wheels aligned following lowering and also new tyres, I went to National Tyre in Braintree. Since having it done I feel a vibration through the steering wheel so I am wondering whether there is is any other kind of adjustment which needs making e.g. tracking etc?
