From "What's it like living with a 4x4?" topic..: Pony wrote: also weight???? think very much about that evil! Almost forgot. Yes, I was very concired about weight, mostly because of our regulations. If weight was added too much, it would be loss of a seat, or two. And that was one of the major issue to worry, but I was very released when my Dyane was on scale... Original weight was 570kg, and today the scale told the weight was 590kg. Really surprising, only needed to remove..: -spare wheel -jack -mass dampers -door cards -bumpers -seat belts -about 7kg from flywheel -all drum brakes replaced by disc brakes -big battery replaced by small one -choose most light tires I could find So, some kg's here and there, and the result was only 20kg more than original. Satisfied, really... |

Some years ago we have plenty of snow at beginning of october, but last winter it started about middle of december... Nigths have been under zero for a while, so winter is quite near... On the other hand, I don't want to have snow yet, not before I have MOT'd my Sm and drived it to garage, because I haven't winter tires for that. Pretty confusing, want to have snow but don't want... |

Tires for next summer..?   Not sure do I want to have them on GS rims. Need to try on 2cv rim also. But it is plenty of time to next summer... |

Easy solution is to need steering arm, but it makes steering a lot harder. Spacer between bearing and flange could be better but then wheel offset will be wrong with 2cv rim. And modifying the rim itself isn't something what I want to do... So, it is possible to have GS rims, if wanted. But I'm not sure do I really want them that much... |
