New wheel on .... best change yet!

[williams]

Managed to get a new wheel from a friend who had sold his 182 cup. Its totally transformed the drive and feel of the car. Very happy with it.

SORRY FOR THE PHONE PICS

Also done a oil/filter change to keep things fresh

change the centre on that wheel mate, two rival wheel companies like that just makes it look fake. apart from that it looks top!

One of the best things I did was change the steering wheel.

Looks great apart from the obvious clash of brands lol

 

[Bren Rogers]

I have that same wheel, one of the best things you can do to a 172/182

Yes that was my grumble when i purchased it. All in good time my friend, just wanted to get the wheel on.

Looks good.

 

[_Tom]

Looks great but I couldn't do without c/c

 

[Italian_Job]

Looks great but I couldn't do without airbag

 

[ChrisCurr]

Looks great bud, airbags are only for those you crash have you managed to get the airbag light off tho?

 

[williams]

CC i never used at all so not too bothered about losing it. Can always put a brick on the pedal if i have a long journey.

I need to get a resistor to plug in and turn the bag light off, looking about for one at the moment.

Also get rid of the OMP horn button being the obvious

 

[Nickw88]

Looks good that mate

I changed the look of my horn button by sanding it, painting it black and then applying a Renault sport decal. May not be everyone's cup of tea but I like mine

Seen the new MOT regs? Rumour has it, missing OEM safety devices (like airbags) is a likely fail.

Time will tell how actively this is policed.

I heard this too. Popped to my local testers to get them to look at something else for me and they didn't even pass comment. As long as the airbag light's not on they're not bothered.

Mines due on 14th feb so I'll see soon enough! Fingers crossed

You need 2x 3.9 ohm resistors, can get them from maplins mate

 

[imprezaworks]

Changed mine ages ago, great difference,

 

[Nickw88]

On a separate note, is there an easy fix for TC and ABS lights or is that a more involved job/repair?

Sorry for the hijack!

 

[Austin-182]

Tc and abs because of changing wheel?

 

[Nickw88]

Unfortunately so. Probably buggered the SAS although hope not!

 

[montana]

Looking good!

 

[BREMBO]

One of the best mods I did to my old Clio, smaller wheel is a massive improvement over the shitty bus sized standard one.

 

[syko6288]

Whats the specs on the wheel and how does it feel with a smaller wheel ?
