Oh and I had Michelin Pilot 3s on the Clio and they were brilliant, but designed specifically for the Clio. Perhaps look at the Yokohama Parada Spec 2 - would look awesome.
I'm running Hancook V12s on the front and ditch finders on the back as they were freebies!

Stephen what are your wheel specs width and et? These are et 25 so will poke quite a bit so thinking of going for a 195 to get a bit of stretch and more arch clearance... Don't fancy tubbing them arches N  |

16x7 with ET35. Any more offset and they'll rub the rear arches. Stick to 205s, it'll probably handle better.
I used to run 195/45s on my last but one car, and the ride was harder and it understeered like a mofo compared to the 205/45s.
Many go for 205/50/16 but they can look a bit chunky.

At the moment it looks like I'm going for 195/45/16s not sure about the offset though. currently I'm running 7x17 et48 with a 20mm spacer so effectively et28 and I do get a bit of rub even though I have trimmed the arches and adjusted the camber. slightly worried about these being et25 but I'm sure I can get them to fit with the narrower tyre and a bit of camber Not worried about under steer this is purely for looks and stance  N. |

So you've got a fine handling car and made it worse. Seems legit.

New BBS specific valves arrived  But what about these new dust caps?  I think they should add at least 5bhp |

Your going to have to lift that up. That's way too low to drive it around and enjoy our car But it does look good.

Enjoying the driveshaft wobble? I raised mine up from there as it was just impractical.
