There's more to play with, not much though. The 8J ET48 JUST about works, literally. It's the rear I'm having mares with, I'll take a photo of the front.

I took a photo of the rear wheel and arch, bar getting a tape measure I think it shows how close it already is with the ET55 and 7.5J.
An 8J instantly pushes it out 12.5mm
It sits outside of the wheelarch and will rub. I don't want a car that looks like it's had the wheels 'spacered' big time. Either flush or literally just inside.
The white actually doesn't look too bad, again it's a struggle with the high ET and 7.5J width. The OE wheel on the rear already sits close to the edge of the arch.
I even looked at these as a possibility, 7.5Jx18 ET53, even the same centrebore, BUT 5x112 which would mean using wobble bolts
The HLTs are a 7.5Jx18 ET47 offset, I'm not copying someone else as much as I like them. Believe me for the last 2 months I've been scouring the internet for new and 2nd hand wheels in an offset that will work.
So I tried an 8J ET48 as recommended by OZ but this is what happened
They stick...
Really struggling with finding a set of wheels due to the high ET the EDC has. While I was in Renault yesterday they have the facelift 220 and saw the wheels.
I asked parts department for a price, in my opinion it would give mine the look of the facelift model. Then I saw that the French...
I'm really pleased with all the work he's done to it, it was nice to watch the whole process start to finish. I figured the Clio being 4 years old and the colour it is, the enhancement detail would bring it back to better than how it left the showroom.
