If the throttle modes in the Clio are anything like the Megane, I'd avoid extreme. Throttle should not be an off on switch LOL

Impressive, I might pick some up for the Megane to hide the shite paint for a bit til it gets properly detailed by a Pro later this year LOL

RSRs are nothing on A048s though LOL. I personally wouldnt bother regardless of how cheap they are you are massively compromising it's road capability running a full blown R tyre, particularly in this country.

Game changing

@gally Any updates on Essence plus durability?

Unless your planning on turning it into a full race car i wouldn't go that far haha, Just eat less. Or take a dump.

Flat foot shifting is just that, keep the foot planted and change gear, ignition cut usually. Downshift rev matching is just like heel and toe except you don't have to blip the throttle, loads of stuff comes with it these days from the factory GT4 included however if you can actually drive...

Ah that seems a bit better then, I thought they were similar weight to the Megane. Still a decent amount out it though, it doesn't look like you have went too racecar with the weight removal either?

Gave it a wash as it was filthy and covered in tar and a quick going over with some Hydro2 cause I'm lazy, comes up alright for 95k.

Really? f**k that'a far lighter than I thought they were!

That'a impressive then, what are they in full fat road trim?

Good effort on that weight with a cage!

Oh, what's happened to that one.... Looks good Marc, vapour blasted stuff looks spot on, wish I had thought about getting my hubs etc dine when SWR had it last month doing swivels etc

They didn't look the worse on it to be fair but I think the MK3 suits wheels with thinner spokes

PS3s are very mediocre

I had my DZ03's on them and ran them for a couple of TD's then sold them. Not really wide enough and these came up. Also, Sold the Cup wheels and have some TD 1.2s en route that shall be shod with some AR-1's or the new MRF tyres for trackdays.

Got some better photos last night with the new wheels DSC_2492 by Jamie Atkinson, on Flickr DSC_2497 by Jamie Atkinson, on Flickr DSC_2509 by Jamie Atkinson, on Flickr DSC_2540 by Jamie Atkinson, on Flickr DSC_2545 by Jamie Atkinson, on Flickr DSC_2547 2 by Jamie Atkinson, on Flickr...

I've seen a few reports of these MRF tyres supposedly being the R tyre to get. If they really are better than a DZ03 then I'll definitely be getting a set. I'd be interested to see actual data and times comparing them though, not just people saying they are faster

My go to do all tyre, have only ran 235s up until now so be good to see how much of a difference the larger ones make

255s. OZs are finally getting fitted tomorrow, expect photo whoring LOL

That looks mega! I'll need to get a swatch at it at KH at some point

That looks great, got a real soft spot for the mk4 with some choice mods

Mine is stripped out as well haha, they are a bit slippy when new to be fair though, once scrubbed up and a heat cycle in them they are great though

Haha, I'd of bought several sets if they could be had that cheap, still cheap though. Especially when compared to Cup 2s which were my other choice, there's no way the Cups are twice as good to justify the cost

Mega tyres, I ran the older AD08 at Spa in torrential rain and the grip was unbelievable once you got a bit of heat in them, standing water isn't so much of an issue when they still have plenty tread depth left. Stuck some R compound ones on Megane before we went to the Ring done 25 low 8...

I gave in and done them anyway, mainly for the first reason you mentioned, for easier not having to deal with tyres, particularly when they will have 255s on
