Going back to post above i wasnt happy with the compbrake top mounts as the small spacers were missing. Looked at all options and oem are pretty expensive and no camber adjustment. To fix current ones spacers and bearings around £100 from compbrake. As i love destroying my bank balance...
I used these on mine. You’ll need 16” wheels for 300mm disks though I believe. Standard 182 wheels fit with 15mm spacers

Fitted a set of my compomotive mo6 with new michelin ps5 mid week.
Loving the look over stock wheels.
Planned on taxing it on the 1st and taking it for a ride out. As i cant leave nothing alone i investigated the strut top knock on Sat. There is a small spacer which is missing and the...
...the sofa. Frame rate seems okay, will wait and see how DLSS works when they bother to add it properly.
There was a ship along with a few Spacers, and a friendly trader roaming about with an alien dog thing at that place on the hills. Not entirely sure who the ship belonged too or what...
Post number 52 Continued (Part 3/4).
Next was to make the 3 parts which weren’t included in the kit (crank pulley spacer, water pump inlet and oil pick up pipe).
Crank pulley spacer was a pretty straight forward part, matched the existing inner diameter and length and found a new seal which...
Post number 52 (Part 1/4).
F4R F3 Dry Sump System.
There were many different parts to sort for fitting the dry sump. First of all the kit purchased from Titan Motorsport did not include all the parts required for fitment as it was just what they had left in stock. So from the outset we knew we...
...ok there.
Discs and pads have done sub 1500 miles and no obvious signs of scored discs etc.
However, when removing the rear slip on spacers, I did notice the OSR caliper was binding preventing the wheel from spinning freely when in the air so suspect it needs a rear caliper..?
Any...
Just wracking my brain as to whether there’s a metal spacer or washer at the bottom. I don't think it did tbh.
Here’s my installation
Mine had a washer above the nut. No issues with play.
The Eibach blurb says they give upto -1.75degs the image you linked at the top is more than that, looks like closer to -3degs.
You can also buy camber spacers for the rear beam. Check PMS website.

...wasn’t the end of it. Noise coming from the rear when cornering and play on both wheels. It occurred to me there were probably some kind of spacers still attached to the old discs but by this time I’d already disposed of them with the spacers most likely stuck on.
Kam Racing came to the...
Thanks, I agree! Esp with spacers, it looks a lot more hunkered down with the black wheels somehow. Spacers help obv but the colour does on top. Mystical.
If it had a big wing, yeah potentially the back right as that thing is scrubbing! I have big spacers for the daily wheels and forget the slicks are wider, no exhaust smoke though
I meant to ask you at Curborough James, what trailer is it mate? I need one for my Austin A35 and Clio so that looks ideal but need it to go through a 7 foot opening to get it to back garage when built
Cheers mate i will absolutely take a pair of them if thats ok. Everything on this looks like its been in the sea!
As far as im aware lower arms for 225/26 are nla and have been for a while. Not a problem with pov spec arms available and easily modded.
Recommend the vibratechnics rear arm...
If you need some anti rotation spacers that usually come pressed in the lower arms then give me a shout mate and I’ll sort you some out.
Also didn’t know lower arms aren’t made anymore. Mine don’t look bad but need a refresh so might get them off over winter and get them cleaned and powder coated
yeah 100%, and it could do with being a bit lower but tbh the cheap project has started growing arms and legs so that's all for now, ill revisit at a later date!
The top nut is only really there to stop the damper/spring from falling out when the car wheel is jacked up and off the ground.
I have ASTs fitted to mine and am running the standard top mounts. Mine's worse than that.
So, one more (frustrating) update.
Since i installed the top mounts they sit rather high, as you can see in the pictures:
Both sides are the same. I bought a bilstein top mount kit with the new Renault Nut/Spacer. I have researched a few topics and this seems to be normal, but i can´t get...
