    Another bloody wheel decision thread!

    So I've ordered some oz Ultraleggeras, but having spoken to the company I bought them from today, there's going to be another weeks delay in getting them. So my decision is.... Do I wait another week to pay £679 for these Or do I buy these for £519 AND a whiteline ARB, and have...

    V12's or rainsports???

    I need to decide which tyres to use on my new wheels. They'll be used as daily tyres and then on track at brands in march. I know Hankook's are said to be good on track but how do rainsports fare? The wheels are being delivered to me with tyres, rainsports are +£60 and v12's are +£100...

    Anyone want rid of their coilovers?

    I'm taking delivery of my new wheels on Friday and would really like some coilovers as they're 15's. So, would anybody like to swap (with money your way) their coilovers for my cup shocks and eibach sportline springs? Rear shocks were new2 months ago, <1000 miles. Fronts are older, but...

    Best top end coilies....

    I know this is going to end up with a huge argument, but I need peoples opinions... I'm 99% buying dannyR's 'charged engine. With the extra 160hp I guess it would be a good idea to buy some coilovers..... Lol. So, I use the car as a daily at the moment but only for a couple of months. I'll...

    Gearbox rebuild... Uprated components?

    I'm looming at getting my gearbox rebuilt.... It's not too terrible at the moment, it's more preventative maintenance. Especially as I've just invested in a shortshifter. Firstly, where can I get this done cheapest? I'm sure there's a few members on here that do it? Secondly, does anyone...

    What springs do I have???

    So, when I bought my cup, I was told that it had eibach prolines.... But having looked at them today, they're red. Clearly not prolines. I know sportlines are red, but is there anything else that they could be?

    Phase 2's with aftermarket wheels please!

    I know this is the millionth pic request I've made but I'm going to take the plunge and pay for some new wheels on the credit card. Just because it saves the hassle of swapping / overlapping sales so that I'm not left without wheels. So, now is the small task of deciding which ones. So, can I...

    Cup to phase 1?

    So something has been playing on my mind for a while..... Should I have bought a phase 1 instead of a cup? Has anyone made this transition? My aim for the Clio is to give it a purposeful track look and feel. Stripped, buckets, low and 15's. I've been looking around and I could buy a...

    Vmaxx or sportlines?

    As above, I currently have prolines on my cup but due to me swapping up the turini's for some 15'' ultralegs, it needs to be lower. So my question is, am I better off getting some sportlines or buying v-maxx? I aim to buy some top end coilovers as soon as money will permit, but it will look...

    Why do 15's make the handling better?

    So I understand the idea of having minimum unsprung weight, and a smaller wheel being lighter. But weight aside, why would a 15'' wheel with a 50 profile tyre be better than a 16'' alloy with a 45 profile tyre? When the overall diameter of the tyre/wheel combination is almost identical?

    What wheels and possible weight saving?

    Im looking at the possibility of selling my cup turinis as ive been looking at changing to 15's, so I figured I may as well do it now as I am in need of new tyres pretty soon. So I have a few n00b questions for you all. I figure my turini's are worth ~£400 + £250 for tyres. So what are the...
