Regarding "will these be worth money"
It's safe to assumer that if it's on here, and there's a thread about "project [name]" then it wont be worth its weight in dung in 5 years.
But if it's got under 10k of mileage and is 150% OEM parts, then yes, get that thing under a blanket and in an...
Fine.
May only be 13cm, but as drop-in replacement it means you're not tearing your dashboard out.

if you're going to stick an amp n, go for it. But the stock size is 13cm so you'll have to take some trimmers to the mounting holes.
But, for standard (aftermarket) head unit output, you're not going to get anything better than where you are now because the more chunky speaker will need more...
All T1-Rs did for me was collapse their own sidewalls at the first sign of a corner.
Rainsports...or a "proper" tyre, like a Conti, Michelin or Goodyear.
Buy cheap, buy another car when the road goes slippy and your talent doesn't extend as far as you may like to think.
Stock 1*2 speakers are actually pretty decent, once you've got a proper headunit running them.
Upsizing to 17cm isn't going to make a massive difference to what you're after either
Honestly. speaker money would be better poured into a good quality underseat or boot-mount sub. Depending on your...
I'm pretty sure that, other than a completely different gearbox altogether, nothing makes the Clio box feel much better than stirring a pot of lead and rocks.
Lots of road noise
Rock hard sidewalls (as above, I guess)
Woeful in damp
Attrocious in the cold
Average in general dry
Good on really hot days. But it needs to be properly midsummer hot.
Proxies seem to have blu-tac sidewalls, as far as I've found.
They'll grip...to a point. At which point they just fold over and give up entirely.
This is for 205/45/16. Replaced with Eagle F1s, which was a worthwhile extra spend.
Nope, I feel he's just got things to say other than:

Smug t**t grin.
Sure, he doesn't go on about on-the-limit tat, or any of that stuff which CS would prefer to hear about, but he is amusing, and interesting, and when he goes full-Pennsylvania...
An right, cool.
Just thinking of all the super-hyper-mega-no-weight-busa/v8/cosworth 7-alikes, and I just remember the wings having more louvres than an Astra GSi bonnet at a max power show
Its not the diameter, it's how wide you can get the tyres. An extra 10mm at each corner completely transformed my daily Mk2.5.
That said, any of the OEM ENkei 15s will be lighter than the daisies you have now too, which I'm sure would be handy.
guessing it's got an LSD already?
EDIT: Ah, no...
The OEM lip is genuinely worthwhile as it had actual aero testing done on it.
But even the OEM rear lips are pure tupperware only.
Little gurney-style lips (as opposed to duck-tails) are alreet.
As for your understeer, you'll cure that with 20 minutes of alignment settings and OEM-size 15"...
Bare car? pfffft, loads left on that! :wink:
After stripping it down to the bones, how much tupperware will get bolted to the bumper and bootlid?
Just a quick point. None of the wings, ever, make the slightest difference other than to incur extra drag
