A hockey puck or circle of wood with a groove cut out of it should work. The trick is to only use the jacking point to lift the car so the groove in your puck/wood/etc should be shorter than the jacking tab which then stops the lame little tab from folding over on itself with the weight of the...
Hi and welcome,
Do you know if the car has wheel spacers fitted? I briefly put aftermarket wheel spacers on mine and experienced the exact same shuddering issue at that speed. So you need either no wheel spacers or specific hub-centric wheel spacers...
Well, if they were selling hundreds of thousands of RCZ's then finding info and parts would be a lot easier because of demand BUT then RCZ's would be as common as BMW's, Ford Focus' etc. so you would just be one of the sheep. And who wants to be a sheep?
I *think* the MGP Caliper Covers I used were for a Nissan 370Z. I chose that car because the wheels are the same size as the RCZ but there was nothing on the box anywhere that said what car they were for so not 100% sure that's what I got!
If I have the wheels off again any time I'll snap some...
I found fitting them to be remarkable easy and it took maybe an hour to do all 4. There's a video here that shows how to fit them - the only difference is I did mine whilst still on the car.

The idea is that they stick on with 3M sticky foam that is on the back of them. You also get 4 alcohol wipes and 4 primer wipes with them so you can make sure your wheels are clean before fitting.
I've did quite a lot of research about this before purchasing and there seems to be about an equal...
I've not had any experience with these but got a bit put off when I looked into them with all the faffing around with letting tyres down and fitting clips, etc.
I got some Rimblades instead [ http://www.rimblades.com ] in red. Haven't had a chance to fit them yet due to time and weather but...
Oh dear. At least you're OK though, right.
I've got a feeling you're going have a lot of fun in your new motor though and can put that accident far behind you. :thumbup:
I do still think Top Gear can be amusing, especially when it's one of the adventure specials, but that feature was just like a 2 minute sketch dragged out for 20 minutes or more. There's an extra 2 episodes this year though so I guess there's more filler content.
You can watch it on iPlayer but the History of Peugeot 'feature' was just 20 minutes of Clarkson an May driving into things whilst pretending to be mentally retarded so you're really not missing much. :|
