    new wheels on :)

    thanks all! jimmyd81 - yes white suits them, but found a pic of a red 197 with the anthacite ones and they also do look great hence the idea :) kazumz - the wheel is 7x17 so a 225 would not be a good idea, even the 215 feels a bit softer on this rim than it did on the 7.5 due to less stretch

    new wheels on :)

    Just had these babies put on yesterday, its a BRAID FULLRACE A in 17x7 ET50, according to willtheyfit.com it sticks out only 11,4 mm farther than the et68 wheel in 7.5 width which was my main concern as I couldnt live with the wheels sticking out too much...

    200T: New Clio unveiling at Monoco Grand Prix?

    its a risky game RS is playing, it is pushing expectations on the new megane RS due in 2017, I cant wait for the news as well, it would be interesting if this went on sale, but what output would a megane have to receive to be the faster one?

    18inch wheels on lowered 200?

    ok just read you're using 225 40 18, that makes the wheel 11mm taller than a standard 215 45 17 wheel, might do some rubbing if you get it lowered, to compare, a 215 40 18 which I think was a standard tire size for the RB7 is only 3mm taller than the 17s so I guess if you'd stick to the standard...

    18inch wheels on lowered 200?

    If you want to use it track I'd suggest getting a set of 17 inch wheels with a semi slick tire first, the 200 CUP is pretty stiff out of the box, may turn out you will like it as it is just with a lot extra grip a good tire provides.

    The Best Road Tyres

    Thought about the CUP2s and the supersports, but the no trackdays plan plus the cheap in me made me buy the PS4, should arrive tomorrow to be fitted, or just after the weekend, cant wait as it turns out when I bought the car it was sat on some old V speed rated nokians from 2006, a year older...

    Aftermarket wheel options

    I am sure it has the same effect, but how much faster will it wear the suspension components is difficult to measure, in general you stick the wheel out and the forces are a bit bigger then, so makes no difference if its a spacer or if its a lower offset wheel, maybe the weight may have...

    Clio 197 Xenon Headlights

    glad you got it sorted, these cant take too much from my experience, had my previous 197 for over 100k miles from almost new and the mirrors of the projectors were burned out so light output was very poor, it was driven with the main beam lights on all the time though due to the local law, would...
