Lol! Beat you, I don't think your car can get much more unique tbh!
Other 2 tyres fitted today so wheels should be on at the weekend weather permitting
Cheers naith.
The wheels were 40 quid each and 25 for the centre caps to be sprayed, I had the tyres off the rims already so I guess that might change the price a little
out of interest how much are they at WRC? Looking to get lucys wheels refurbed soon
Another quick update
Trial fitted 2 of the 172 wheels today, the other 2 have tyres going on tuesday. I went for rainsport 2's after reading review after review, these seemed to be reccomended quite highly so thought I would give them a try
anyway pics:
I now need to decide whether to...
Slight Update
Finally got my 172 wheels refurbed, I tried to do them myself but couldn't get them to a quality I was happy with so took them to F&M powdercoating in Preston and got them back today:
I went a bit overboard on the sealing and did 2 coats of SRP and 3 coats of poorboys...
Im going to have to pull out of this :(
dog sitting in the morning (yes dog sitting lol) will hopefully be able to join up on route though in the afternoon if everyones still about :)
Car looks awesome! got to love a bit of k4m
Do you need to run spacers with these rokkors or are they okay without? sorry about all the questions, I seem to pick your brain in every thread!
Thanks
Paul :)

Its a hard choice isnt it!
Found them a bit cheaper here: http://www.dcperformance.co.uk/uprated/fk-highsport-coilovers/renault/clio.html But its just whether they are worth the extra money over vmaxx
Sorry to bump this up again, but thought I might aswell use the thread I started before.
Upon more searching I've read a few people have had to use spacers on the front with the highsports is this a must ? or with proper set up etc arent they needed?
Thanks for the help
Paul
Didnt have any rubbing what so ever on the springs even with 4 people in the car, coilovers may be slightly different not too sure was still perfectly practical though, just the odd speedbump etc had to be carefully approached
Tires were the standard ones not too sure on the size tbh I did have...
Theres a few more pics in http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?469212-The-life-of-my-1.6....-pic-heavy&highlight= pal :)
It was sat on 60mm PI springs and 15's yeah the picture above had the wheels photoshopped a bit bigger to see what 172 wheels on it would look like :)
Hi all,
Looking at getting some coilovers at the end of the month and in my sort of budget the main choices seem to be vmaxx or highsports
I found high sports on the link below but it seems like there are 2 different kits with 2 different lowering capabilities? 40-70 and 15-45...
