yes it has just been full power trialed and low speed monitered .... i gave it a good thrashing and its a ok! no lights no mis fire unbelievable its cost me a lot of money an dmonths of worry but.. it was worth it thanks mostly to exeter mitsubishi who basically hadnt seen one til i took mine in and did an excellent job and well priced diagnostic also i also had tow cover replaced as mine had flown away 25£ and it was painted the right colour and had ayc fluid and wing protector replaced they had it 6 days and was 250£ inc parts and labour is was expecting around £500 so am chuffed .

Need to establish if I need new ones or not so best to try all four. The plan is if you could meet up we can take both to a local tyre place I know and put yours on mine just to test drive it - if you don't mind :Ponder: If no wheel wobble at 80 then new wheels it is

Cheers
