    New tyres + wheels refurbished

    My original wheels (I believe they are called 'Raiders' here on the board) were seriously curbed, so I used them as winter tyres only. Few months ago I decided to have them refurbished and painted satin black. Here are some pics including the 3-days old new Dunlop Sport Maxx RT rubber :proud...

    Hi everyone, I'm Wim from Belgium and I own a Clio 200 since July '09. First off, some pics :D As you can see, I changed the rims, the original ones are used in winter time with off course, winter tyres. Since I didn't like black on black I painted the brake calipers yellow. Wheel nut covers...
