   Alright so in traffic today (dry overcast day) i noticed my car was smoking slighty from exhaust even whilst warm, it doesnt clear and keeps doing it even after long drives car doesnt overheat.. there doesnt seem to be any coolant loss and there is no mayo (had rocker cover off and everything).. help?
   
   Also, will alloys that were previously fitted on a ford fit my saxo? heard that ford are 108x4 as well.. cheers

   I wouldn't worry about them smoke mine does that aswell.
   
   The alloys tho you'd need 20mm spacers. Just get direct fit saxo wheels less hassle.

   Your exhaust is hot, the air is cold, It will most likely smoke due to the temperature.

   Forgot to add, the alloys im talking about are TSW ones that were just put on a ford so not actual ford ones.. still need the spacers to fit?
