Clio 197 Spacers / Stud & Nut

[MarcB]

Looking to upgrade with some good spacers and a Stud & Nut kit for my Mk3 Clio 197

Problem im having is I have no idea what im buying as there is so much out there with so many different spacers and things.

I don't want to be buying longer wheel bolts either so im hoping that the stud & nut kit will rule the longer bolts out.

I did have 20mm spacers on my trophy with longer bolts and I was paranoid about them so took them off.


Anyone provide a very good set up that's proven to work well for the Mk3 Clio RS

What width spacers you planning on using?

 

[MarcB]

Was looking at either 10 / 15mm if possible

Righty.

In which case you’ll need the 55mm ones off the TRS site someone mentioned on the cliosport page.
I use 20mm spacers, so use 70mm threads in the front, and 62mm in the back.
(fronts are longer as they go through the disc)

The minimum with enough lip on the spigot for centrebore activation is 18mm (for fronts, they have long spigots), Pure Motorsport sell them.

For studs have a read of the post I made, using TRS

Stud / Nut Conversion

Use high temp stud lock when fitting the studs We used TRS nuts, with the lengths quoted you will get a couple of threads visible when the nut is tight yup, loctite 272. Thanks lads, yep I've got some Locktite 272 already, so that's good to go. So the lengths are definitely 82mm front and...

The front discs act like a spacer, so you want longer front studs (only if you want them to poke out the wheel same front and rear).
