Pretty much as the title states, finally got round to buying tyres and getting the things on there:
Bargain price on the tyres as well, £320 for 4 Dunlop SP9000s, including fitting, valves and balancing.
And yes,
I know it needs lowering! That'll be done next week with the help of Phill's old 50mm Eibach springs

Very Nice! I sooooooo want a set of these but have pretty much talked myself into getting some Wolfrace Asia-tech Kendo's in 16".
Should look well nice once lowered mate. Hopefully that won't be too long!

Looks great! What size tyre are they? - they look a lot less than 45's! You're right - lowering would just finish it off. I would love to drop mine but with impending offspring I don't want a bumpy ride.

Thanks for the comments guys, much appreciated.
nickpolo: Got them off eBay just before Christmas.
frazzle: They're 195/40/16s. Low profile, but keeps the rolling radius almost identical to standard.

Keep the splitter standard!
But just to add to the comments above, great wheels
and when lowered on the Eibachs, it'll look spot on. Cylhiu (sp) has the same setup and it looks superb
