Just noticed...

A couple of wheels arn't sitting flush against the hub on the zs? Theyr are sitting on the bolts!!! Glad i noticed this now!!

The wheels are standard 17's. Why could this be?

Cheers

ZS Phil has a spectacular aura aboutZS Phil has a spectacular aura about
if they are tight then its probs because you have used the nuts which were for the other wheels, the standard wheels obviously dont need a spacer. You didnt let pete put them on did you lol??

You might need to take them off and give the hubs and the wheel centres a clean with some emery cloth, then refit them with a coat of copperslip to stop the crud from reforming.
