[lee87]

finally got pics sorted on here, anyone got one of these with pro race 1.2s on that i could see pictures from, and please dont ask bout stickers, im scared theyll show up if i pull them off lolView attachment 43414

 

[Dunn]

Whats with the stickers?

 

[lee87]

im not keen on my wheels anymore thats why i want to change them, i blame the ph1 appreciation thread, so many nice ph1s that im just not happy with mine anymore, ive seen the light, going to drop it slighlty and get the prorace 1.2s in black, anyone know of any meets in the cheshire area of just clios? would like to see whats out there!

 

[lee87]

hiya dunn, they were on it when i bought it nearly two years ago, so im scared if i pull them off then they will show up, cant help but fink it looks like its been thru ripspeeds drive thru lol

Get a set of standard oz f1's, get rid of the stickers and you have got your self a tidy one

 

[lee87]

ive got the standard f1s in the garage, but id like them black! ive got a cupra r front splitter aswell but if i lower it to suit the 15s then my drive will eat my splitter everytime, so thats y i was finking off the 16 prorace 1.2s

 

[daddycool]

the 16's won't be any taller than the 15's as the tyre sizes will need to be different to compensate the jump from 15's to 16's

i dont think it looks to bad maybe a bit big.


we do have a few meets in chester but there is only a few of us in chester might be a meet comeing up soon. what part of chester are you from?

id have the oz"s back on it in black

 

[lee87]

im actually from elton but work at airbus and know chester well so if you let me know ill come along some time, but embarrased how mine looks at the moment, is it your v6 i see in work all the time?

 

[lee87]

kp mathews i know that but 15s dont do it for me, the rims an fat tyres, no thanks id prefer the 16s with low profile tyre. imo it just looks better.

Just chin of the cupra r spliter doesnt serve a purpose + looks odd on phase 1's

 

[lee87]

i think it looks good, some people on the ph1 appreciation thread posted pictures which look mint, make it look lower to the ground and a wider look, any pics of yours mate? what colour?

 

[domjolly]

Looks ok not kern on alloys for me it's oz f1 alloys all the way on phase 1's I'm on the look out for the 16" sets they used to do

 

[lee87]

hmmm, interesting, i never knew they did the 16s but i know you can buy new but bit pricey imo..

no mate this is mine


i wouldnt worry about it come along nxt time we havent had a ph1. i think oz or bbs would look good.

 

[lee87]

ok well give me a shout next time you guys meet. id like a good noisy at your v6, its gonna be my next purchase i think after loads of saving lol

 

[domjolly]

Yeah they did 16" oz f1 alloys as an optional extra when the phase 1 first came out, not sure if you can still buy them from Renault bet they would cost a fortune

 

[lee87]

im sure a place called wheelbase do them, they r based in manchester.check there website wheelbase.co.uk

ok no worries it sounded like you were going bigger because you were worried about your splitter meeting ground, just re-read your post and it makes sense to me now

 

[W17GLE]

I've always thought ph1's look best standard

[Chris205]
