Thanks for that; so it's RAC proving cover then SplanK. Pity they couldn't develop a gunk that wasn't fatal as it were

SplanK's comments are correct, but I bought a spare and accessories as I did not like the idea of wasting so much time going backwards and forwards to QuickFit tyres. I assume if I wanted RAC would fit my spare to save me having to get the tackle out on a winters day when it is dark.I would never use the gunk as it would mean a new tyre and at over £200 each, the spare looks good value. As a matter of tyre size I see that Bridgestone do a 225x45x19 inch wheel which is not so low in profile and may improve ride slightly, I wonder if these could be fitted to the Tekna as they are nearly £40 cheaper than the 40 profile tyres on average

Before I left for the US I placed an enquiry with Alloygator UK. Yesterday I received an email from Alloygator with the following details on new colors and as I had not seen any comments in the Forum I thought I would stick a comment in for your information. The website is perhaps for US advertising !, anyway please find attached website I hope it works - Dave http://us9.campaign-archive1.com/?u=395 ... 4b26d97c32

I'm looking at fitting one of the Alloy protection options in this
thread, however I was wondering if anyone is aware of any issues with
invalidating Nissan Warrantly if I do so?

Not to my knowledge; mine has fitted and been into Dealers several times. Doesn't interfere with car's electronics, and the QQ's TPMS monitors, let's you easilykeep an eye on your tyre pressures.

No problems here. I popped back to the Glyn Hopkin dealership a few weeks back and the sales guy showed the alloygators to one of the service dept staff; they both agreed that they should look into stocking them.

I keep wondering if these alloygator rim protectors are worth it. If you change your tyre, you may have to take the alloygator rim protector off and I cannot see many tyre fitters doing this.My car is gun metal.

I had these fitted to previous car, brilliant. I have not got round to fitting to my 19" Tekna wheels, wish i had as i scuffed the rear on Sunday. Annoyed is understatement.
