You had APEX springs on that 172!! hardly fair! And the roads are so shagged now a days that tramlining is the least of your worries.
If you're worried about 17's, try CSL's then!!! Fairy!
You'll be forever cleaning them. If you wax them regularly then you'll never need to use APC or such like.
Mine are past the point of no return now, it's Wheel Brightener or nowt! ha!
TBH coilovers on a roadcar is a mugs game (I'm also a mug) the best 172/182 i drove was Alan's old 182 on Eibach Springs, for fast road driving, uneven surfaces, town driving etc Coils are just too harsh! Regardless of set up!
Calm down it's only the wheels FFS! As soon as you touch as car it's no longer original/concourse! Thats not nor was ever the angle with this car.
What have you still got to do mate! Would be a pity to sell, i reckon it's worth more to you than it ever would be to sell!
Such a hard thing to get right...I've not managed it yet. (More to do with my inability than the equipment i use)
My attempt but cheating with PS to improve!
Nope, 17's were on avg cheaper than the 16's due to them being a random size...I.e 195.45.16 is rarer than 205.40.17...
For sure 15's are cheaper and i appreciate the majority of you engerlandish are tight fisted! ;) For me, the RS looks at it's best on 17's...Especially the 172/182. Likewise...
no no...Not an opinion...Fact! Turbines looks superb on a mk1...Seen them on a few mk2's...look ok! But not right! On a mk3...Can't think of much worse.
Don't know why people knock 17's! They're better than 16's imo! I ran them back to back around knockhill. There was no difference in times and i just preferred the turn in on the 17's bit lazier, but far more balanced!
haha! TOO SLOW! Why you asking JD? He's got an Audi with granite paint and forearms the size of tree stumnps and he still can't get the swirls oooutttt! ;)
99% of all clio related questions have been asked before. If you search you'll 'more often than not' find the answer. But then the forum would only be limited to General Chat wouldn't it.
No harm in asking!
Where in Abz you based?
AG UDS a gimic imo, no need for it!
If i were you i'd pop up to Polished Bliss in Kintore.
5l of Shampoo Plus is a far more cost effective route too.
