The Speedlines are edging it for me at the moment, I like the fact the spokes go right to the edge of the rim and they're fairly flat. Unlike the TDs that roll down towards the rim and also do it more rolling towards the bolts at the centre.
Cheers! As the saying goes.... It's worth the extra mile for the right things. Like any petrol head it's hard to explain to other people that it's worth driving that far, waste of time, waste of a Sunday but to me it's a day out anyway. Well a morning as I'm back by lunchtime.
I should stop browsing Ebay really, I'm a sucker for wheels. 9pm last night these came up on my radar in the 5x114.3 search. By 10pm I'd agreed to buy them and pick them up.
So after 385 miles and 7 hours driving to Shrewsbury and back this morning these are wheel option 2 for the EDC...
Absolutely love it, one of these is my potential next purchase. I have the Meg 1.9dci and could do with the extra boot space so this fits the bill. Meg 225 front bumper with xenons, PCD adapters to fit the R26 wheels.... Done.
I like it on the Porsche rims
If only the bods would go to the Eiffel event just to see how well it does, a no brainer it generates money to the local areas in all ways. Just embrace what it has to offer, on the night stage we stood in the neighbours front garden watching the rally cars. The Bitburger beer stand was in...
The organisation gone into this event is second to none, it's down to the punters to choose where they want to view. Everyone is so friendly, food and drink is always on tap with the option to bring your own. We went to the local supermarket and bought in crates of Bitburger for the evenings...
So that's it! My 4 days away watching rally cars, its an amazing experience to be up close, to hear them. It's not often you get the chance to see these rare cars :cool:
Saturday morning, a quick browse at the special stage map and we head out to our last stage. This was quite a good one in a way we had the chance to see them give it some beans off the start line a few hundred yards away then head towards us at speed. I've put some videos on YouTube but don't...
Friday late morning we head to a special stage on gravel, we park up and take a quarter mile stroll to a woodland section. The event is well organised, they cater on some parts of the stage with Bitburger stalls. The section we stood to watch was in the woods but they still managed to set up a...
Three friends and I went to this rally festival back in 2013, a few months ago we decided to head out again last weekend from Thursday to Sunday. They take over a town called Daun in the Eiffel region in Germany which is about 20 miles away from the Nurburgring for 3 days. They use the town...
That thought did cross my mind as I felt the silver clashed with the front blade colour, I just don't know what colour it is. Yes an assortment of lairy colours such as red, blue, white have crossed my mind for trackdays but I'm thinking of keeping them on for a while so a more respectable...
They looked better in the auction photos, I took a punt and punched in a bid of £155... And won. When I picked them up however, rattle can effort and a poor attempt at that. But I've done a few sets of wheels over the years so I'm happy to do another set.
The silver is a change and yeah I...
Team Dynamics wheels come with a 73.1mm centrebore so I've ordered a set of spigot rings to fit 66.1mm. I've also seen a set of Nankang semi slicks 225-45-17 for 250 which should work a treat.
Been toying with changing the wheels on the Clio for a while, just for a change or use them as a second set for trackdays. It's been a right royal pain in the arse trying to find a second hand set in 18s as the OE wheels have a ridiculously high offset of 55 with a 7.5J width. Aftermarket 18"...
Awesome, like I said it's worth it if you're going to add to the Clio to make gains. There's no point in wasting money on products along the way when there a proven ones out there that work and will benefit the Clio:up:
The gearbox software update was done by Renault, I was made aware they had the newer version so I enquired with the Renault service dept. I had to pay as it wasn't a recall but there's another who had his done for free. It's definitely worth having it done, you'll notice the difference...
