Yeah that was my thinking, the difference in size isn't enough to offer any significant difference. It also prevents you being able to swap the tyres around to even out wear. Hmm... at only a few quid difference in price I might just get a full set of 4 205's next time round anyway.

Has anyone run wider front tyres than rear on track? I was talking about it at work with a mate and he suggested it might reduce under steer and free up the rear end a bit. For me it would be 205/50/15 on the front and 195/50/15 on the back. Would it make enough of a difference to be worth it...

Thats what I was getting at. If you don't use the Metro UI, why would you upgrade from W7? The Metro UI is great for some devices, and I hope its a success on them (especially as I'm planning on getting one), but I cant see how W8 could be a replacement for all W7 installations as on a large...

I've had it on my laptop for a while in various guises, current on the Release Preview. On a tablet, like the Microsoft Slate, I can see it being brilliant. All the simple functionality of an Android/iOS style device, but with the power and functionality of a 'proper' PC underneith should you...

Cheers. Its not for me its for a mate. What does a rattling dephaser sound like? Depends how 'not Renault' the belts are I suppose. Lemonnobby1 did mine and its been fine :). Didn't do this one too did you? Anyone got any history on the Monaco Phase 2?

Massively impressed with the DS2500's on mine, although they do generate a significant amount of heat. How much will you be using the car on the road? I have Federal RS-Rs on and they are fine on everything but standing water on the road, and great on track. A rear ARB will do a lot to reduce...

Ok. So does that Ph1 have anything wrong with it? I'm assuming you did the belts?

Have I missed something?

Where you looking?

Are the current or previous owners of Silver Phase 1 X49 HNR or Monaco Blue Phase 2 FP02 ZGW on here?

Do we know if the flappy paddle is standard, or an option?

I quite like that. Yes its AutoExpress so is delivered with a truck of salt, but they seem to have the general shape of the front end the same as the camo test car.

Good choice. I've done 2 track days on my RS-Rs and they have hardly lost any tread. The outside edge is obviously wearing more than the inside, but I will get them swapped left to right after the next day. It was simply the cost that swung me. I got them for £65 a corner, which is silly...

Thank you Scott. Desktop updated and I will get a sig made with it soon too.

I want to make a forum sig out of it, like I did with the original, if thats ok?

Anyone got a high res version of the purple background version of this I have seen on the banner?

Re: CLIO IV RS for 2013, Last news I think the camo stickers are covering a lot of the rear windows, making them look much smaller.

Having a write off on record does not equal a 'dark secret'. Especially a C or D. Typical newspaper BS. But then "88% of cars have a HPI report that isn't blank" isn't such a catchy headline...

Re: CLIO IV RS for 2013, Last news The FoS is not the kind of place where a manufacturer would show off its shopping car. If Renault are showing something, it will likely be the Alpine.

I went from standard 172 shocks and springs to Cup shocks and Eibach Sportlines, and the ride is now tediously uncomfortable on normal roads. It jiggles and crashes over bumps, and those concrete motorways where its laid in slabs with a join every few meters are horrible. But on track its a...

IIRC the OZ standard bore is 75mm. I gave the OZ distributor the reference on the wheel and the centre bore I needed (60.1mm) and they ordered the part for me.

OZ wheels don't use 'normal' spigot rings, they require proprietry OZ only rings that, unless you can find a set on eBay, you have to buy from OZ direct. The set I bought were from Italy and cost over £60 as they come as part of a 'fitting kit' which includes 4 rings and 20 wheel bolts, so cost...

Multi fit F1's? Good luck...

Does Hedge End count? If so I'm in :)

The difference between RS-Rs and R888's in terms of performance on track is much smaller than the difference in terms of price. MyTyres currently have 195/50/15s at £66 delivered. For value for money I think they are unbeatable.

Well, one of my rear shocks is failing after just 14 months and 7,000 miles! So I'm looking to buy a set of cup rears. Can anyone confirm the part number of CUP rear shocks and also the colour of the sticker on them? Also, somewhere that I can buy them from where they don't think all rears are...

Evening guys. Just thought I would pop in to thank the ClioSport Driving School for their advice ;) Did Rockingham yesterday and focused on not driving like a noob, and my understeer has all gone :D. I've fitted a smaller (330mm) steering wheel which has made the steering heavier. This has...

Yes.

Thread revival because.... It's happened again! They have only lasted 7,000 miles! Surely that's not right?! The same corner again! And I've got a trackday on Saturday! :(

Flashed me in the Silver 172 with yellow mirrors.
