    Trophy - Front wheel bearing

    All, Can anyone tell me if the front wheel bearing is the same as that of a 182 sport. Mine was being down today but GSF sent two, both of which were incorrect. I've told my mechanic to order straight from Renault in the morning. Just wondering the experience of others on here. Thanks, David.

    new tyres

    I'm thinking of buying a couple of Mich PE3's as the fronts need replacing. Rears have covered at least 15,000 miles but have good tread. Do you, A) Replace the fronts with the new tyres? Or B) Switch the partially worn tyres on the rear to the front, and put the new tyres on the rear. ?
