[JaredHasNoBrain]

The cars looking stunning, what Discs do you have on the front, we got the same wheels but my discs look puney compared to mine lol,
Where you get the centre caps from?

 

[Tunst]

Needs Cup Splitter. :rasp:

 

[Šįk]

Ha, yea I did want one but can't justify the money for one. Especially with the 182 being so low and the OEM splitters being so brittle it's just asking to get snapped!

Cheers, not quite sure what the disks are as they were already on the 182 when I bought it :S also I bought the ultras with those caps already on too lol. Sorry im not much help!

Piers.

 

[Conlon]

How much are the skodas? Mines a bit scuffed

 

[Šįk]

I paid just over £13 for mine.

 

[Heez]

You can get those caps from eBay. Had to replace a couple myself. M582 in both 15" and 16" guise.

 

[tomp2000]

Lovely motor, the wheels and ride height make it perfect

 

[Šįk]

Thanks Tom

Update

New splitter fitted! Absolute bargain for £13!

Much better mate

Do you think you'll have any issues with those washer blanks at MOT time?

 

[Russ Rallye]

Looking good mate, front splitter totally transforms the car, they look lost without one, cant argue with a skoda one for the money seen as they're so easily knocked off, as you already know
BTW 106 is getting mot'd this week so i'm up for a run out next weekend if the weather is decent.

[Smiffyboy1990]

Skoda Splitter look's great! lot better than i thought it would Did you have to cut it to size ?

 

[Šįk]

No i can't see it tommo

Yea I'm game russ! Looking forward to seing the old 106 again too

Smiffy, yea but only once it's on. the ends need trimmed to suit, but the splitter is soft so it's really easy to cut.

Piers

 

[Smiffyboy1990]

Ahh good Thank's

Make's it easier then, going to order one on payday

 

[Beasley Clio182]

[The Chubby Pirate]

Nice one Piers! Mine need changing soon and these look good!

 

[Lawro]

Nice one Piers! Mine need changing soon and these look good!

I'm 99% sure they are the Godspeed discs mate.

[Šįk]

If not very similar! I do have a spare set in the garage (brand new) which are also drilled aswell as grooved which I bought for £25 off a friend but again no idea on the brand :S

Personally I'd try and find the drilled and grooved ones as they look even smarter! I can get a pic if it's any help !?

Here's a link to grooved/drilled disks : http://www.europerformance.co.uk/pa...html?car=renaultclio;category=frontbrakediscs

This week I got my hands on some 15mm spacers. Not sure there big enough tbh.. I might have to swap them for some 20mm's just to be fussy! I did fit them to the rear to see how they would look also, but they stuck to far beyond the arch which would just cause rubbing issue's id imagin.

C&C welcome

Piers,

 

[Stefan.]

Looks awesome just like that imo

 

[Kieran..]

Looks even more perfect with the 15mm spacers

 

[busterkins]

Very nice. what about the new Renault Sport badge on the back?

 

[busterkins]

Silver cup racer Toe eye would look nice too

 

[Šįk]

Thanks

Il roll with these for a while and see how I feel.. Tow eye n badge are both a good shout too.

Update.

..uh oh, I couldn't resist or wait lol.

25mm Spacers by PSJHodgson, on Flickr

Will get them fitted tomorrow! Really chuffed with these, quality is brilliant & Very good/quick service! I highly recommend these from Dan! Very professional - http://www.cliosport.net/forum/show...S-(WITH-BOLTS)-IN-STOCK-NOW&highlight=Spacers

[Russ Rallye]

Think it might be overkill with 25mm in mate but will wait for the pics. Might be interested in your 15mm's fir the front of mine depending what you're doing with them.
Russ

 

[Šįk]

Well got them fitted and managed to get a couple pics before the sunlight disappeared.. Please excuse the dirt!

I put the 15mm spacers on the rear and they seem to be causing abit of rubbing, which I'm going to look into sorting as I want to try n keep them for the rear (if this fails il give you a shout Russ). The fronts seem to be fine so far - no rubbing until full lock but Im ok with that.

So in total with the wheel offset the spacing each corner is +32mm at the front, +22mm at the rear.

I think it looks spot on happy days!

Piers.

 

[banderson]

Looks perfect mate! Silver 1*2's don't really do much for me...but this is on another level

 

[chillbill]

To me the +32/+22 spacing looks a bit too much. IMO this +15 was perfect. But then again, to each their own.

Otherwise a cracking and tasteful 182

 

[ekaJ]

Lovely 182 but not feeling the spacers. Make it look like the wheels don't fit IMO. It looks awkward.

 

[Kieran..]

Same I preferred it with out these spacers tbh

 

[davo172]

THIS ^^^ too much on spacers now IMO perfect otherwise

 

[Šįk]

Ahh gutted you guys ain't a fan, maybe the pictures don't do it justice.. Itl be getting a wash as usual this weekend, so will take some
more just to make sure

personally I like em.

 

[Kieran..]

I like the rears but I think the front sticks out a little too much tbh mate

 

[Heez]

I like the rears but I think the front sticks out a little too much tbh mate

Agree with this. Make it look slightly FWD drag car with too much poke.

 

[Šįk]

Here's another couple..
