ANOTHER clio on grids :-/

[clioboy16v]

Ok so I had iv been a member for years but never a paid up member , so I bit the bullet and signed up properly. Was looking for a fun/economical'ish daily as my main hobby is drifting and the Sport ticked all the boxes. Bought it looking like this ,

Decent, honest base car. Standard bar a Ktec stealth,powder coated wheels with suspicious centres and a 4x4 ride height. Plan from the start has been stance with no extra camber (hate big camber on clios)
Also I didn't want to follow aaaall the clios iv seem dropping a wheels size so stuck with 16" with a sensible stretch using 195/45's. Here are the results..

Before roll/pull/flare

After

Absolute pain in the arse lol, 5mm slip on's all round, plus rear arch grind/re-locate front and rear bumper brackets/modify s**t guards/massive 1" flare and roll on the rear. Also had to modify the front inner arches slightly to get Lows. My own fault for choosing to be different with a 16x8 et20(now et15 with spacers) but after 29houra graft there on with no scrubbing

Il try and get some better pictures but light was fading fast by the time I was done , opinions good and bad always welcome

Looks quite cool although cant imagine very functional?

 

[Duffman_172]

Really like how that sits, nice work!

 

[chriscummins7]

That looks brilliant mate! Really well done

 

[Kieran..]

very nice!!

 

[Danith]

seen these wheels on another clio and was not a fan at all, but on this they look quite cool. just the rears that i cant get my head around! does look funky though, fair play.

Still drives 4up with the spare in with no scrubbing, getting a laser alignment done today to double check everything's still good ,

 

[Sam@NP]

looks good, very individual.

 

[Cup_Phil]

Looks gorgeous!!

 

[dezmondo]

Looks top, love it!

 

[Wick]

Did you roll the arches yourself? Brave man if so.... Tools used?

 

[Scrooge]

Looks quite good that.

 

[Chapppers11]

Looks really good that! Haven't seen them rolled like that before.

 

[Brad Smith]

Looks good, I would get a new plate for the front, preferably a 3/4 one, only thing that spoils it. Apart from that I think it looks great.

 

[aucky]

Looks good on the front. A little too wide on the rear for my liking.

Some people may like this but I dont like this sort of look on a Clio :dapprove:

 

[Nick172Cup]

Probably one of the few clios that looks alright with these wheels on mainly because of the arch work making them fit better. Only things thats bugging me atm is the actually amount of people buying these wheels, there must be at least 7 clios recently fitting the exact same wheel. Would be nice to see someone fit some decent/different non rep wheels for a change.

 

[Ash']

^^^ This. However those gold grids do look nice on black ph2's

 

[James28]

Looks awesome. Good work.

 

[CJGREEN]

Looks amazing!

 

[cb10]

I was looking for a set if Schmidt modern lines tbh, whenever I loom on here there another car rocking grid v's or drifts. Don't want to be a sheep so I'm relying more on the fitment and stance than the actual style. Also I don't think iv seen anybody with the 16x8's (I k ow its only a inch either way but still different....ish lol)

*sorry for all the random words and bad grammar, looked back at it before and my iPhone has changed ALLSORTS!

For the record I'm not a 17 year old lad who is in love with the colour orange and Ken Block stickers

 

[Stu-]

Looks good Sean. We'll have to get some proper photos of it.

 

[Adamm.]

Looks really nice mate.

 

[jesus]

They really suit it, nice one mate.

 

[MonkeyKnifeFight]

Perfectenschlag!!

 

[Scott™]

Looks good but you need better pictures.

 

[Bobby.]

Brilliant stuff, can I ask how much do they cost and how does it affect the handling?

 

[VIICarCare]

I like that, would look even better polished up

Handlings ok now, spent alot of time making sure there's loads of clearance after me and stu tried to get some new pictures .... And it scrubbed it's tits off lol.could do with some new dohnuts on the front but it's good enough for now. As for price, that's a secret

Iv got a pal that works at Revolution and I got them for a good price,

Here's some fresh pics courtesy of Stu 'lad

Need to try and find a cup spoiler,stubby ariel and smooth a few bits... Then probably a colour change as it will only cost me in paint. Nothing OTT, something dark .... Opinions ?

 

[olliemilsom]

Looks awesome,

we should get our clios in some sort of photos

secret, no fair :rasp: ok let me ask you what do they do for?

these alloy's are really growing on me if i get another 1*2 (probably will lol) i'll seriously be considering these. also i reckon you should spray your bullet's gold to match the wheels...

 

[Stu-]

Looks good Sean! Still need a cup spoiler though.

 

[Bondy 172]

Well you certainly got stance..... I like

 

[MAT ED30]

like it

 

[Jamie16v]

That looks epic! I'd consider colouring the 2.0 16v badge on the trim in the same colour as the grids.

 

[Sleepy.]

I am.. So jelous i wouldn't mind havin' one of these in monaco blue either!!

 

[CJGREEN]

Any photos of the bumper mods you did?
