if theres no offence then why you being sarcastic, what you dont understand is that i pay for everything on my car including the car, insur, tax and mot , im poor i aint afraid to admitt it, thats why i was asking if these cheap discs are ok to put on my car mate, i scrimp and save on everything i buy, now stop pissing me off
