Help 197 Wheel Needed

[billytkid]

Hi all,

I took my beloved 197 to the garage last week to see if I can get some speed wobble sorted, however after looking at it they said my front offside wheel has got a flat spot where I've hit a pot hole (grrrr), so I need a new one.

Any ideas where I can pick up an ok second hand wheel?

Cheers

I'd just try Renault first and see how much they are.

They may only be around £100 brand new, better than trying to find one second hand

Yea that was my first call, £167+Vat I believe....hence trying to find a decent second hand one!

Thats surprising, the 18inch cup alloys for the Megane are only about £118 each.

Yea, expensive! I wouldnt mind so much if the alloys werent crap to begin with..I've never seen alloys that come out so much in the middle - as if they were designed for crap drivers to scratch on high kerbs!
