    They do, hard to tell from that angle but they also look like those wheels that are right fucking shit to change tyres on due to the deep well

    Possibly they are. Luke didn't mention it though.

    The 10inch slick looks spot on, on the 9 inch rim. Pretty sure that it's gonna help tyres wear in a better shape too.

    Avon say anywhere from a 9 -11 inch rim, generally they're used on a 10 inch wide, what width was the old rim?

    Old one was 10. But we got heaps of shoulder wear.

    The 9 should add some sidewall stability too, which should add traction out of left hand turns

    Shoulder wear on the inside is normal, even on the LCR which runs neutral to positive camber on the rear

    Yoko used to say to run an 11 inch wide wheel for the 250 wide rear

    We're currently got one of the Yokis you gave us on the rear. Guess we're about to find out if they were right.

    We turn pinkys rear tyre over when it's about 3/4 worn because of inner shoulder wear. The whole job only takes about ten minutes though including remove & refit of wheel.

    We get pretty even shoulder wear. That might change with the new shock and subsequent geometry changes.

    I recall you got quite a bit of air box wear a while back too. Hopefully this will help that too.
