Love the colour, mainly because mine is the same! This reminds me I really should get pictures of mine.

Thats me you and alun then! Imagine if we all parked next to each other at a show :lol:

What's the wheel size/offset? Looks far too small and narrow from behind lol

182 wheels a calling....?

 

[waitey]

Agreed alun.. twigoblazeoc.net

And they're the 15s and think I read ET0 not sure only took them off once to put springs in... Even then didn't pay much attention and I do want some 16s not sure on 182s yet unless I see a black set at a decent price

 

[BlackTwingo-i]

Did you fit the springs yourself?

 

[waitey]

With the aid of a friend yeah, changing springs on a twingo is quite simple really if anything getting to the top mounts of the front suspension was the hardest and most time consuming as they're right under the scuttle panel so everything there up had to come off for easy access.

I can find the guide I flicked through if you want?

Job done. Neil you are good at this stuff.

182 alloys are a win. Decided I'm going to punt for a set. Prefer them to the RS cup alloys

I might do mine then one day soonish!
Any chance you wanna talk me through it in much more detail, and tell me any tough bits I need to be careful of and bla bla? I can get some spring compressors easy enough, just wanna know if Ide be able to do it!

Pics and some more detail added to the 'how to' thread

New discs and pads arrive from K-TEC this morning, it looks asif they improved the design by just 'dimpling' rather than drilling.

To be fitted tomrrow

You need some fat spacers on that now, made mine look much nicer.
