I was going to buy some centres, but I've got some silver ones knocking about so I might just spray them. Anyone know the paint code?
Edit - found the code, Ixell 205-110
Me: Can you check this part number please.
Parts Monkey: No, what part do you need and what's your registration number?
Me: I have the part number here on a Renault invoice, I just want you to check it so I know it's the right part.
Parts Monkey: I can't just check the number.
Me: I'm going to...
Sort of, my bad. All 182's with cup pack suspension and the Trophy's share the same hubs. The non-cup pack suspension 182's do have different hubs, and I'm not sure if that affects the track or not.
I asked the experts ages ago on the RenaultSport forum (expert panel - think the guy's name is Allen Collen?), they gave me the answer, but I can't remember what it was! Ask the question again on there.
Edit - don't bother, I've just asked again. Will post up when I have the answer.
They're doing well! I think they're great to be honest! Give me a couple of days, I'll try to work out how many miles I've put on them as I didn't make a note of the mileage when they were fitted. I'll compare the tread depth to the rears that were fitted at the same time.

Nice project. Are you sure you want to ditch the power steering? It does have its benefits (and I also know that running without isn't a problem) when it comes to catching slides (seen your vids!).
I remember speaking to Mark Fish about the failing power steering issue ages ago, he was sure he...
I've just been talking to a friend who had his Fiesta RS Turbo mapped at Torque of the Devil - he said they were excellent and he would go back and use them again and again.
I went out in that car after it had been worked on and it was incredibly smooth, so much more tractable than it was...
I bet you're no fun at a party. Yep, I edited the levels. One of those colours you need to see in the metal/plastic to get a good idea of what it's really like, and the sun needs to be out. I'll see if I can dig up an unedited version later.
The part of the harness that causes legality problems is the buckle. Aero style buckles are not strictly legal, but mine passed without any issues.
Most manufacturers produce a harness that has a legal buckle, and the Demon Tweeks catalogue states which are which. As for the picture above -...
