Spare wheel

[wanda]

Has anyone got rid of the tyre kit and put in a full size spare wheel?

hi yes i put 16 " wheel in well but you have to cut the recess ouy of the carpet or it sticks up

[wanda]

nice where did you buy the spare? I heard a space saver wheel from Honda can actually be used and fits in the boot easier.

got it from renault breakers £30

[wanda]

this is a silly question but have you made sure it fits? I heard it takes 5 bolts, nutts or whatever its called

[DAZZA]

yer fits great only 4 studs easily snapped though as i found out oops

[wanda]

cool. Thanks. I will hunt for mine

I have acquired another Kubera alloy wheel (dynamique 16") for ours. More for putting on the car when the punctured wheel is in for repair. I do have another kerb damaged Kubera alloy that needs cosmetic attention, so looking for refurbish recommendations ideally Essex.

In answer to my own query, I have found a company just a short drive away and have had a pair of wheels refurbed.Very impressed with the quality & service and not too badly priced either.

I was having a look through some Renault parts documentation and see that there is a flat boot carpet without the recess available..It was listed as 8200545444 Carpet boot cab3 (the normal recessed type carpet was shown as 8200545442). Currently making enquiries with a dealer on availability and pricing.

Let me also know how much it would be.

I have had a price back from Renault and true to form it is rather high.
"the boot mat is £120.55 inc VAT & is in stock at Renault UK"
In order to research this some more I'd like to look up some earlier part nos.Can someone forward me the info from a Ph1 CC's oval sticker (label) on B pillar. Not the vin number but the other codes..Dave

15" renault steel wheel ( my car has 16" wheels) from a breakers , tyre section is taller than normal 16" wheel so rolling radius is the same; apparently needs to be same because it (Renault dealer quote)" upsets the diff if it's different"(?). Wheel fits ok and only lifts the boot carpet by about 40mm so I'm not forking out £120 plus for a carpet! I've put the jack/tools in a toolroll in the boot.
