Pretty simple but just wanted to make sure as it's been playing on my mind.

Do hubs from a Clio 16v fit their lesser models such as the rt, rsi etc.

yes

only diff on the clios is the hub bolt spacing (52 or 54mm) and the 1.1's etc run the smaller bearing size hubs.

Whats the difference between Rsi hubs and 16v Hubs?
There both 54mm, would rsi hubs fit allright on a 16v? or would it change the handling characteristics

nothing, they are the same.

yes, RSi hubs will fit on a 16V, because they are 16V hubs
