I keep a second set of wheels for the wife's car with snow specific tyres on them for just such occasions so nipped out nice and early Tuesday morning to swop them over. She made it too and from work no problem, and back in this morning... Just had a phone call from her, "Darling I've just popped out on a visit and someone has pinched the wheel trims off my car". "That's interesting" I replied, "I took the alloys off yesterday and put the steel snow wheels on, they don't have wheel trims...." "Oh" she replies, "I did wonder why that car nearly ran into the back of me on the hill this morning....!"
