Hi guys. So I've finally got a set of vxr wheels for my car.

They have no centre caps and apparently mine won't fit because they are one big unit, so does anyone know the best place for them? I checked eBay and they are like £60 or is this a good price?

They have no tyres so I was told initially to get 235/35/20 but also been told that it's 235/40/20 for the Gtc so the clocks are then only out by 1mph? Is this right and if so anyone recommend a decent tyre at a decent price please?

Also about the tyre pressure system. Will I need new valves again or can they come off my 19" alloys? And will a garage know what to do to change them if that's the case?

Finally got them at a great price but got a feeling all the other bits and bobs I need are gonna cost a lot more than what i thought.

Thanks
