Thanks Ben, I will have a look.

Its OK for you Ben as you have friends and family in the right places!

Have you tried Skidz in Falkirk? That is where I got wheels from for my last car. The two Craigs at Skidz were very helpful, I might give them a call. At the moment, my favourites are OZ Super T, Superleggera, Speedline Turini, or something similar to the F1 Cup or Speedline GTi.

Where is the best and cheapest place for new wheels? Also what tyres do you recommend, for safety and wearability? Thanks

BenFromOz, what eight cars beat the Cliosport?

Must be someone else, as my last car was a gorgeous Pug 306 S16!

Tell her to find someone with a Civic, an old Rover or an MPV if she is scared of going fast!

The Monk, sorry to disappoint you, but it wasnt me you saw in Manchester! Tim was right when he said I live in bonny Scotland, as I live near Edinburgh. I used to live not far from Manchester, in Cheshire.

Why dont you seal up the mis-aligned holes with sealant and drill two new ones with the correct spacing and screw it on, then you know your spoiler will be secure. You could also apply some sort of sticky pads in between the spoiler and the car to cushion it.

Try your local bodyshop or coachbuilder.

Ben, I think you are wasting your time doing business studies. You should get a job as a technical adviser for some wheel companies so that you can tell car manufacturers and dealers about the type, style and size of wheels to put on their cars, you seem to know such a lot about them!

How did you find out about these wheels Tony? Would you put them on your 172 when you get it?

Ben, what exactly are you studying?

Now you are blinding us with science Ben!!

Excuse my question, but why do smaller diameter wheels give you better acceleration than bigger ones? Is it due to them weighing less than the big ones?

So why dont you weld the end of an exhaust pipe on to the bottom of your car, and poke it through the spare hole and it will look like you have twin exhausts!!

Where is Nobbynobby tonight?

Did you get a new number plate Wongy?

Fred, what do you do with the hairdryer, give it a whack or warm it up?

mrt67 Where was/is your water leak? I am interested because I too am having problems with water ingress as Renault call it. I have had my car for just a few weeks and have only done 370 miles so far, 100 of those were up and down from the dealer, which is where it is again at the moment as...

Hi and welcome BenfromOz! Bet you cant wait for your new black 172, it will look gorgeous, I have one also. I am also thinking of changing my wheels and like the look of the OZ Super Ts or wheels like the pictures someone posted a short while ago on the general forum under "Clio V6 can be...

From the Renault dealer for about £6

The wheels look similar to Fox 3s and Mille Miglia Chronos?

A friend of mine has just had his Pug 106 Gti lowered, with new springs etc by Peugeot Ecosse, who are well known for their modified Pugs, for only £150 all in.

Black Clio: What do you mean by water leak silicon marks repainted? What leak did you have? I still have the leak in my boot and would be interested in what your problem was and how it was resolved. Thanks.

How is your dead 172 Chris?

My hubby had this problem with a 406 coupe and had to have a new temperature sensor.

I think you might like them when you are driving in the dark Tony! MUCH brighter than the PUG with a lovely purply glow they light up these dark nights very well.

Would be alright if your name is S. Logan!
