    No need to feel guilty for driving her like she was meant to she runs fine, same as on petrol, still getting adaptation error on idle though, but I will speak to people who will do safety test whether they can calibrate it, as I won't have time for next couple of month.

    put 20 liters in the other day, paid just a tenner. I used to use premium unleaded so for me works out more than half the price Going for 160 mile rounds trip in couple of days, will see how much fuel it uses compared to petrol.

    Finally "high fuel cost" worries have been dealt with She runs as good if not better on LPG, need to fit wide-band still, but that'll come a little later.

    I will get someone to turn the wheel and see if I can find where it comes from exactly.

    Not that I know off. Ride is as smooth, no wobbles, can't feel anything on the wheel either. Could it be shock absorber, as mine are a bit on non existent side

    It isn't just the tire size that comes into play here, it is the ET and width of the wheel. E.g. for the same wheel width, ET45 is closer into the strut than ET35. For the same ET, say ET 40, an 8 inch wide wheel is closer to the strut spring than a 7 inch wheel.

    I think the combo of tire and wheel width and ET is causing an inside tire edge to rub on something, e.g. the wheel well liner.

    Had these tyres on 2 S4's and no problem. I'm thinking strut bearing as well, I can feel it on the steering wheel as well. I'll remove the top mount nut see what state is mount in.

    Coming home today noticed squeaky noise coming from passenger side when steering? Seems to be coming from outside, but can't see anything wrong, any pointers?
