make sure they send you a pair of rears so they are the same age and settle at the same rate/time, you will prob have to send them off to them so your cars gonna be on stands for a few days/put the standards in for a week or so??!!

to do this year....

then...
different wheels come with different center bores though, doubt they have a 6mm sprigot tbh. never know though, get a tape/ruler out and whip the wheel off and measure it...
twin cafs and bigger diameter air box (v6 one).
heat wrap the manifiold and ptfe gaskets and match the inlets.
doesnt help living in mexico city in the middle of summer though.......
yes its possible to fit 205 or 195 on the cup rims, you may get some arch liner/bumper bracket scrubbage if your running mega low front end......
205s are wider so help with cars runnung more bhp than standard and get better grip "suposed to" anyway and they fill the arch gap up a few more mm...
more like 9 secs to 60 tbh, book says 9.3 to 62.
tops out about 130 in 6th
35ish mpg depending on how you drive it, and it runs better on 99 ron fuel...
nice suspension kit/spacers is all they need and doesnt need to slow down for corners when youve got the speed up.
definatly hubcentric, system b start from 15mm per wheel and system a requires you to purchase extended bolts if you go wider then 6mm per wheel
anything under 6mm wont be hubcentric as there is still enough lip to support the wheel and you dont need extended bolts.
try to get aluminium ones...
mytyres or camskill or black circles......
40 prifiles look s**t and the ride will be crashy, 45 profiles are alot cheaper too and have more selection.
^^yes he does, give him a bell!!
toby, imo yes its worth doing to standard set up as best they can and see how you find it, only £50ish, i dont think having the rear 40mm wider than the front is helping which you will have to take off anyway to set them up, with tracking now set to factiory...
You can get them on ebay too, should be m12x1.5mm threads and add the spacer width to the length of the threaded bit of the standard bolt, done.
but as said system b are better but only start at 15mm per corner (30mm per axel) you planning on getting 26mm per axel (13mm per corner)??
try to...
anything with big power/traction for the cc is gonna be fragile,
turbo clios/big power track clios eat boxes/uprated cluches/suffer oil starvation on the track/twisty stuff if you launch them/rag the nuts off them x amount of times every week, then they will break, know its a different kettle...
what sort of speeds you guys go at??
i cant stand convoys if people hero off at 1 million miles an hour then stamp on the brakes until people catch up and weave in and out of the convoy.
if i go down with you lot im quite happy to lead the convoy from last services as tom tom will show us...
i would have burnt it out and claimed elec fault etc.
you will struggle to get a gt diesel for under 215 a month.
mines a petrol on 5 years 0% with a 2k deposit and its 200 a month, got free met paint and free tomtom too....
it has its little niggles like most cars but imo if you can afford...
