Has any body attempted this? I'm interested in doing this alloy swap, but as I don't really understand ET measurement I'm unsure if..
1. It's possible at all..
2. Possible but wheels will be tucked in or protruding the wheel arch.
I'm not Interested in performance, these alloys aren't that...
I got a set of seat arosa wheels dirt cheap, they’ve got loads of tread and hold air (the current wheels on my Clio suffer from both of these). They’re 4x100 but don’t seem to fit at all, is this the case? Or do I need new bolts to fit these wheels?
Hey,
I am new to cars and how to modify them so will need some help from you guys. As the title suggests, I am looking to upgrade the wheels; specifically the tyres and rims on my car, however, I am not sure what I should be looking for and where? Are there any good websites that sell wheels...
Afternoon I’m after some help/advice I’m looking at getting my alloys refurbished to factory colour. Iv tried this before a while ago but got the wrong paint code and they turned out different so I wasn’t happy with them. Yesterday I rang Renault Wolverhampton and the parts chap I was talking...
Hi,
I’ve tried searching the forums but can only find info from 2011.
I’m trying to get my 172 ready for a track day in March but am struggling to find a good deal on front discs and pads.
Also looking for a Whiteline rear Anti-Roll Bar if anyone is selling one?
Also after a set of 15” alloys to...
Long story... but I've picked up some secondhand alloys for the missus' car from another car from the same manufacturer.
PCD, Centre Bore, Offset are all identical.
BUT...
Upon trial fitment, the nuts seem to have less thread to screw on to - it is like the replacement alloys are 'fatter' in...
Ive Been reading an old copy of Evo Magazine with the article about the 206Gti Vs 172 Cup.
When reading both specs it says that the cup came with 195/40/15 tyres and 6.5 width??
Hi guys,
I've just got my hands on a 182 with both cup packs and I'm trying to remove the centre caps on the alloys to see if I have locking wheel nuts or not. The previous owner said there wasn't any fitted so want to make sure.
Only problem is I can't seem to get the centre caps off? There's...
Hi guys, gonna need some new tyres in a bit, what size should I go for on the standard 15" alium alloys? As far as I know they come standard with 185/55r15 but i've heard some use 190 or 195 sections and anywhere from 45 to 55 walls. Which is best fitting and performance wise?
So after reading through endless threads on this subject and wanting to avoid posting yet another thread on this..ive had to give up and ask for advice ... i now know that for any real effect im going to have to lower my car 60mm and for that im going to need coilovers as 40mm is the limit for...
Hi guys, I suck at photoshopping in general! I am thinking of getting my alloys refurbed but I might go something nobody has type of thing.
Any input is welcome, and could anybody photoshop them pink in this picture?
Haven't got any good pics as my phone decided it didn't want too keep them..
I'm completely new to all this so I’m sorry for my lack of basic knowledge, I’ve got a 2004 clio very basic and I’m thinking of fitting these alloy wheels on the car, i think I've got the right size, the one's I’m thinking of buying are 5.5x14, just wondering if they are easy enough to fit...
Just bought these for my track car stamped oz. They are 16 inch and look just like the ph1 oz f1 15inch that come on them. Bought these for 70 quid today and fitted my Clio prefect. Did they make oz f1s in 16 inch for the Clio sports. Or are these different
Remembered I've got these alloys in the garage, so decided I'd photoshop them onto a 182 to see what it looked like :
Slight issue is that I'll need spacers as they haven't got much offset (ET49 I think), and also the bore will need enlarging slightly - But I suppose I guess it a way to have...
I have just DIY re-furbed my 182 alloys, I used all Halfords paint and lacquer. How long do I need to wait before polishing and sealing? It's been a week since I sprayed the last coat of lacquer.
Cheers.
Got some light surface marks on the spokes of my alloys i was going to have a look at the weekend, was thinking of giving my poorboys SSR2.5 a go as they are literally only surface and then seal them over any ideas?
Somehow I have managed to damage one of my front driver side alloys. So I need to replace them. I'm looking to replacement with a darker variation of the 182 alloys. As I'll be mostly likely getting them without the tyres, what's the best size tyres to get with the alloys that are compatible...
I picked up a set of dynamique alloys cheap and am hoping they'll be ok for track.
I measured them across and they appear to be 7" from edge to edge, so I'm guessing they're a 6.5j?
Hi,
Can anyone help to wither you can fit clio 197 brembo callipers with brackets to a clio 182 and still use the standard 16" clio 182 alloys without spacers or are spacers needed ?
And if so whats the minimum size of spacers you can get away with ?
Thanks
Right i got my first car, Clio MK3 extreme, its already got blacked out windows, next I want new alloys, but i wanted to keep it Renault, so i want the alloys in the link i attracted, but i can't find them anywhere, if you guys know anywhere/anyone, that would be great, then I want to spray them...
