UNDERSTEER is when you hit the wall with the front of the car.
OVERSTEER is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car.
HORSEPOWER is how fast you hit the wall.
TORQUE is how far you take the wall with you.

if you cant get to stoneleigh, go to B&Q
they do some covers in the fasteners aisle, i grabbed a couple at the weekend for my seat belt bolts about a fiver for 4 but they passed, take a tape
measure to check the sizes as i cant recall them being marked.

Sorry, just to confirm, are these covering M12 nuts/bolts (typicvally used in suspension), or something else all together? If it is the M12, I have
some white M12 nut covers given to me by another LCB member, for SVA. I am under instruction to pass them on when done, so if you want 'em, they
are yours!

If you warm the tifosi ones up with a heat gun the do stretch quite well
You may find an 18 will go on when warm and soft oo er missus

I found dunking them into hot water for a few seconds is plenty enough to soften them up
