Banded wheels?

Postby Hairychested » Sun Sep 15, 2013 10:47 am

I can't do much with the performance of my Meggy as she's a 1.6 16v automatic and needs to be relatively economical to run but having bought steel wheels I am beginning to consider getting them banded. Any reasons why I shouldn't?

Off topic but I used to live there. So glad we moved.
