Saw this on holiday in Verbier, Switzerland over Christmas. Don't think the aftermarket wheels will catch on.................

I was pretty drunk when I took them, they've turned out alright. It's funny to see some gorgeous expensive cars running around with cheap steel wheels and snow tyres. Bet it handles like a dog.

they'll be the spares for the snow tyres - the trophy can't take snow chains so by law you have to switch to studded tyres.

No idea what it said, sorry, had been out most of the day.

Tried to get a picture of the number on the driver's seat but it didn't come out.

The badge under the back is a dealer sticker. Couldnt be bothered to read it but it has a Renault badge in the middle.

Good spot though.

It is my friend. He's taking the Mick out of me for my obsession with cars. Saw it a few days earlier, nearly killed myself chasing it on foot, made me realiseI'm sooo unfit.

There's not enough clearance between the tyre and the bodywork and suspension etc - they'd rip the wheel arches apart also. Alot of sports cars have this problem - M3's can't take snow chains either and some of the 997's can't - GT2, GT3 and I think the Turbo are all studded tyres for Austria and Switzerland..
