Well maybe I did it the wrong way...but insurance never asked the question.....and perhaps if something did happen, I would have changed the wheels over.....but I guess some people do and some don't....perhaps in hindsight better tomtell them you do. But I bet you a few quid that a lot of guys on here rolling on 22's keep quiet |

Had this last year via Groupama Insurance asking if approved wheels and if TUV stamped.

That is correct foxy, for the sake of a few quid its not worth the risk not telling your insurance company, but i will also tell them when i put my winter wheels back on which are 19" so maybe i will get a small refund Welcome to the site yvonne |

Thx for the replies so far.........ADY, which insurance company did you use ??........I am with More Than and they are saying that they may not want to insure the car at all if the wheels are "not to manufacturers specification"........not even giving the option of paying extra !!

I need to ring them then, because when I took my policy out with Admiral they said my 22's would not be covered for theft RRS gone

All sorted now. Original insurer refused to cover it completely as 22" wheels are "not to manufacturers standard". Tried Admiral (£530) and a couple of brokers and got cover with wheels fully declared for about £40 more than prev insurer (£490 but I did have a claim last year)
