Could anyone confirm this is the right wheel bearing>>

I am almost sure the larger bearing is needed, just need confirmation before i go and buy it..

Car is a 95 Clio RSI by the way..

sory no idea. apparently they were for an RSi ? but ive heard of lower spec models with the 54 mm spacing so maybe its just one of those stupid non-logical ways a renault is built lol

must be pretty shite then, the 1.4's use the bigger bearing same as the 16V's etc

Only small bearing ones I have found are 1.4 c type 19's.

Its what the bloke in the garage said, i then went to the factors and gave them the size "37x72x37 " went back to the garage and he pressed it in.

You think my hubs could be off a different model then Lunner? what size is the smaller size?

63mm the smaller one.

Like I said 95% of them use the bigger bearing, only cars I have seen them are 1.2 clios and 1.4 c type 19's.
