Going for tracking tomorrow and having just got new tyres on my 2118s I'm wanting to run these. However it's not the best time coming into winter! I was just wondering how many people do run winter wheels? I was just going to keep on top of cleaning my alloys and making sure they're sealed...

Dannydc2 and 6two1. I can't stand boosted.

Has this been removed through fear?

On the fitting instructions it says to pack both faces with grease, moly do? Or shall i put something better in there? The bearings are SKF, and self lubricating but if being packed with grease will prolong their life, then so be it. I'll be using a ptfe washer to stop most contamination, but...

I've got ktec ones now mate. Just ordered some SKF bearings, and i'll laser cut out some washers from PTFE at work.

According to KTEC the bearings are SKF GEH20C, with a custom PTFE shim and m20 circlip. It's fairly difficult to find SKF bearings cheaper than ktec supply. Found these -...

I think to a certain extent the black alloys would put a few people off. I focus on them straight away, and it just shouts young owner spray painting his alloys (if you didn't know the story behind the car). It's one of those, but you're not in a rush so i wouldn't worry.

Look so clean with the TPI bolts, hopefully they dont rust like some people see! I know you've coated them though, so fingers crossed :) The cars immaculate as always too!

Strange though, maybe it's sitting on the little protrusion more on one, than on the other. You running the rubber parts too?

Ktec ones? The ktec bearings I pressed out were 20x42x25x16

Best bearings for the KTR Top Mounts? There's the GEG20C mcgill ones (http://www.mcgillmotorsport.com/m20-spherical-plain-bearing-geg20c-teflon-lined-705/) or the SKF GEH20C ones (http://www.mcgillmotorsport.com/skf-m20-spherical-plain-bearing-geh20c-1900/).

I'm running standard 16's with 10mm rear spacers and 20mm fronts at the minute. Hubcentric with studs/nuts and the added bonus of the wheel trims still fitting. I'll grab some pictures but it looks a million times better and I can't really say i've noticed it handle any worse? It's nice to know...

I think Black Gold is so much nicer than Pearl Black. It just seems so much deeper, and polishes up so well. It's a b*****d to keep clean though, but they still look good dirty. IMHO I would look for a car that needs it's belts doing (either knock this off list price, or find a buyer who has...

I believe it's down to a cog stripping attached to the motor. Either unplug the adjuster or replacement headlight.

It's your headlight adjuster trying to adjust.

I have some fog lights here for a tenner if it comes to it mate

Eh

Was it your new driveshaft that split it's boot Mark?

Not if you have a satnav surround :(

Free postage with the cs code!

I paid £15 for non sticky grab handles, hazard panel and little trim piece below the radio :)

I've ordered some eibach camber bolts, and i'll get it booked in with bramracing next weekend. Will keep the standard wheels on for now then swap over before heading to bram so it's all setup properly. Can't wait!

You could keep the clio, and just get a cheap dirty derv as a run around.

Too cheap

Okay, sounds good. What make are the camber bolts/condition? And what's the sort of camber i'm wanting to have on the front end?

Do I need camber bolts? Just recently changed my tres and tie rods so my alignment is out by a fair bit. The cars lowered on cooksports and running 20mm front spacers/10mm rear. I don't want to take it for alignment for it to then need camber bolts so I have to pay again. Cheers

Hi guys, Just wondering if anyone has used the locking nuts whilst running a stud conversion? I've seen these, which seem to fit the bill and look decent...
