16 inch Wheels on MK2 clio

[soaney10]

Hi

just got some cash for some wheels to put on my clio Mk2, only got a budget of £500 quid. Was looking at multi-spokes.

Thing is i dont wanna lower the car as its more cash and effort, im not going mad on the car, just fancied a set of wheels. Do 16s look rediculous without lowering the car? would i be better going for 15s for a more discreet look. Anyone got any pics of their clio on 16s without being lowered or could anyone suggest some wheels on my budget that look particularly good on a MK2 clio S in black.

Your responses will be appreciated.

I put 172 wheels on my old clio dci, looked ok but I still lowered it 30mm

Mine before it was lowered on 16" 172 wheels. I dont think I looked too bad, just think that my car looked a lot higher than other standard Clios I have seen.

A pain in the arse to clean but I like the look of 16-spoke alloys on later Clios, they hide the puny-looking brakes and rear drums.
