- Bilstein's reputation is superb.
- I haven't seen a single complaint about them from anyone that owns them.
- They're set up perfectly out of the box, no need to piss around with them.
- They offer comparable (or better) performance to ast, h&r etc at close to half the price.
- They offer a...
Ah fair enough.... In that case my choice would be, buy 15's for around £500, then use the extra to buy coilovers. Then you get the best of both.
£1000 will buy you most 16" wheels with tyres. Cup turini's look great and you know they look great on Blue cos the 172 cup is blue. You can pick up...
What's your budget?
have you had a look through the project threads at all?
All of the common Clio choices will be in there:
-Turini's
-Team dynamics pro race 1.2's
-Speedline 2118's etc etc.
Have a look through the website that I gave you a link too.... there's loads of different wheels...
If you want some similar to the V6, buy O.Z superturismo's.
BUT, for christ sake, don't buy 17's. They'll look crap, handle crap AND make your car slower. Plus, they cost more, tyres cost more. But most importantly, you'll look like a cnut.
I don't actually think that they suit clio's too...
The dogbone mount makes a huge difference on it's own anyway. My knocking has completely stopped since I fitted mine. The single best (within reason) modification.
Doesn't the 182 with cup packs have the stupid hub bolt hole spacing? If there is even the slightest chance of you buying coilovers, then don't get the cup.
I've spent a lot of time looking at this insurance 'blackbox' thing.
It seems to me that they lure you in with a cheap quote, but they basically have the freedom to charge you extra on top for just about anything they feel necessary. You could quite comfortably end up paying more.
Have you put...
I know it's hard mate, but don't rush into buynig your first car.... If you do, you'll regret it a few weeks later....
Take your time, look at as many as you can, maybe even save upa bit more, then buy one that you're totally happy with.
Tests are irrelevant. Different tyres perform better/worse on different cars.
But I had nero's on the brabus and they were very good. Expensive though.
When I bought my cup it had PE2's front and rainsports rear. IMO the rainsports were much better.
You sir, are an arsehole. ;)
I'd have the same thinking as him I think.... If I had 1, I'd go 200. Simply because I couldn't face parking a v6 in Tesco car park and having some to55pot slam his door into it.
If I had another car to use for that stuff, then a v6 no question. For the fact that...
