With my bc top mounts,am'i better off setting them for max castor and then adjust camber with just the damper holes/camber bolts?. Whats the gain in having max castor?

Are they def B14 for a Clio 172/182?

Never seen that spacer bit before,but i would say. 1.Nylon nut 2.Big spacer 3.One half of mount then other on the bottom underneath Also i thought B14 had special nut for the rear not a nylon nut,but could be different now days as an updated version.

So whos actually going to scramble on the 27th?. Could maybe sort a little meet up drive/ park up all together??

Finally, I got round to cracking on with the spare beam that i have had a while. Taken down to bare metal and coated with Bilt Hamber Hydrate 80 and then a coat of Bilt Hamber Electrox zinc primer, then a good few coats of satin enamel paint. I have also fitted shim spacers and whiteline bushes...

Whats making you thinking of going to these tyres and not ps3 again?

If they still did the old compound yes,but saying that prob still be fine for just road use.

I know this has been covered many times,but not with recent times. Is there any alternatives to the Michelin Pilotsport 3 tyres in 195/50/15 now days?. As these have been about many years,must be something just as good or better?.Just for road use.

That actually could be an option 😆
