Ah yeah so you did! 50 profile will be fine on them mate. I was going to put them on my 172 wheels.
Drop me a PM if you want to do a deal. My 172 wheels are white though if that makes any difference to you.
Got some Yokohama A048's in the for sale section and will have some white 172 wheels as well in the next couple of weeks. You're only just down the A1 from me.
Project looks good! Hoping to get mine over to Snetterton a few times this year.
I'm very interested in hunting down my first car. A 1.2 16v Clio Dynamique in black.
I sold it to a friend who had a 172 kit fitted and black Rota Grids. Would love to know if it's still about and maybe for sale. Anyone got any info on it at all?
Cheers
I use APC (all purpose cleaner) mixed 10:1 with water (water/apc). Works a treat. Although Quick Detailer should do the trick with a bit of elbow grease.
Autoglym Bumper Care is great for dressing them.
You post a picture up on a public forum and open yourself up to peoples opinions. You can't then complain when people tell you what they think.
In my opinion putting a PH-Quick sticker on your car that is not a Ph1 172 is along the same lines a putting a williams sticker on anything other than...
Declare it all.
But go with a specialist insurance company. Someone like Tesco are just gonna try and rape you.
I use HIC as they know what they are talking about and will give me £1500 worth of mods without upping my premium. They also give you a 10% power increase.
I actually had a chat...
EBC pads are w**k and too be honest there it is not worth going for vented/grooved discs.
I found standard discs and Mintex Extreme pads to be the best combo. Stay away from EBC green stuff pds they're w**k.
If you are on a budget go for ferodo premiers.
You can get a pretty strudy pair of axle stands for £10. Always stick the wheels you have just taken off under the car as a back up.
I'm just glad you are reading that you did this rather than you just got back from the hospital with two broken legs.
If only they sold common sense in a pill.
