    Wheel spacers & STD LCR Wheels

    Hiya peeps, Is there any advantage of using wheel spacers with the standard LCR wheels? Does it make the car look wider? I guess it will push the wheels out towards the archies but then would they rub? Anyone got any pics etc? Cheers gus n gals

    Wheel bearing problems - a strange coincidence...

    I had problems with my wheel bearings at the start of this year. To cut a long story short, the garage had trouble finding which one it was, but it got fixed eventually, and turned out to be the left rear. My dad has an 06 plate Ibiza too, a 1.4 Stylance. Both registered within a month of...

    LCR 210 steering wheel is a joke

    i just thought i post my feelings how crap i feel the standard steering wheel is on a 210 , its wears around the edges and is not in the slightest bit sporty in any shape or form and just over £300 for a 225 wheel is even more anoying, what were seat thinking end of rant
