spacesaver for 197

Care to elaborate? Sounds to me like it's not a good thing!


I personally havent read the T&C's but... when i had a flat tyre and called out Green Flag Recovery i had to pay them £25 because i didn't have a spare wheel. But i didn't find this out til i received a letter from them asking for £25!! Cheeky so and so's. I've now got a proper spare wheel in the boot :smile:
 
well kerbed the front wheel so its off for a referb......

so i have fitted the renault spacesaver -

Great thread,I've bought the Renault espace spare and found a new conti van tyre on ebay for £75.
Cheers for the Info.

I presume / hope the answer to this is 'yes', but is the above wheel tyre still fine for an RS200 with the cup chassis?

Also, I know the reasons why the jack isn't supplied with the cup chassis equipped Clio, but does anyone know the part code for the standard jack also?

I do high mileage and would rather cart a spare around in the boot than rely on a couple of tins of tyre repair foam which don't do much in the event of a shredded tyre.

yep no difference between 197 and 200 for this
 
Personally I would go for a 175/55R17 tyre, closer to the correct rolling circumference, fine on this width of wheel, and a touch narrower too!
