I can't image you'd need to do anything more than resetting the tyre monitor Steve.

Might be prudent to get a geometry check done at the same time to make sure your new tyres wear evenly.

Good point, and will get that done.

Roll on tomorrow, hope it's not going to rain. Can't let the new wheels get dirty. Any suggestions for "Sealing them". They are lacquered, but any protection i can put on them the better.

Thanks Guys
Steve

Make sure you have a good chiropractor to ease the back pain from the deteriorated rode quality...
