Thanks for the responses everyone.

Fitted some side steps a couple of week's ago, partly to help me load bikes onto the roof as it's a bit taller than my previous car.

Here's a couple of pics just after I got them on....

And one at Sherwood Pines after a clean....

I really like your Xy, that wheel/tyre combo makes the car for me. If I ever get to owning a T31, this is the look I would go for.

Great looking Xy, Fella :thumbs:

looks good...

the wheels really do suit it, keeping an eye out, as for winter use the steels are a much better idea that alloys!

Bold! Very bold.
I like. In fact, I'd say I am inspired! I fancy some chunkier tyres than those supplied, and the ATs are certainly 'visible'. They don't do them in my size though, so it would involve some new rims I'm sure. Where does the spend end?

I know you said the tyres feel better on the road, but have you noticed a real difference in fuel consumption?

Anyway, a doffed cap.

Best wishes

Mike

Like what you've done to your X Trail. Can you tell me where you sourced your wheels from? Can source tyres, but struggling to get suitable rims. Did you have any trouble with the fitting or was it straight forward? Thanks
