    At IVA, tester wanted oversize wiper blade to cover more of the screen, wasn't concerned if it lifted at the edges.
    MOT man wants wiper in contact all the time, so back to shorter blade! As always, in the eye of the beholder....
    Hopefully sorted tomorrow.

    Thank you David, but they are fronts not rears, tempting though. 29/61-15 Michelin TB15 was what I needed.
    Car has gone through now, swapped some spare wheels with TB5s and different wiper blade so the MOT man was happy.
    All set for another year...

    Too wide for the front Struan, but not wide enough for your rear 12" rims. Perfect for 9" and 10" though.

    Yep rears, I used them on 10's, great for sprints, for everything bar torrential rain. This one is my unused spare .
    May even consider selling the two used ones too. Still tread left and can also be re cut. Doubt if I'll do any more sprints to be honest, not got the time or money anymore!

    For some reason MOT man always puts down Lancia on the certificate!
    Presumably it is still valid...

    As long as it's not going to set off an alarm on an ANPR camera.
    Documentation seems to be a minefield if you don't get it right - see here http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/t...+by+Dvla%2E%3F

    It's correctly IVAed and registered, so hopefuly that is the important thing and camera would just check for MOT pass, tax and insurance.
    Don't think the camera would know what a Hawk or a Lancia looked like!
