Yep, they are the ones. I had heard they were prone to damage on the Laguna.
What do you think of these?

Seen quite a few Safrane's with the Laguna II's Silverstone 17" alloys. What are your thoughts? Anyone any experience of them on the car, are they a direct fit replacement for the chinon 15" Safrane alloys? Do they improve handling? Lose any ride quality? |

Like this.... http://www.ebay.fr/itm/renault-safrane- ... 43bba9b2be These wheels fit directly on i think,but make sure they are straight,they buckle very quickly. |

They do look like the Megane ones but they have 9 spokes. These only have 7. Not sure where they are from. SAFRANEV6RXE wrote: Yeah they are nice,they look like Megane 2 alloys?

I had silverstones on mine (we have a laguna 2 as well).  Theres 2 types of alloy, big hole and small hole, the small hole wheels need the bolt holes drilled out to fit the larger safrane wheel bolts to pass through. On my car they also rubbed on the front arch at full lock not where you think either. The tyre actually rubbed on the torx screw that hols the arch liner to the bottom of the wing near the outside. As for the wheel quality. They are soft, very soft.i have straightened hundreds of them. But the next pothole they get bent again. The main benefit of bigger wheels is you can then fit large brakes. |
