Tempted by a wheel swap on my Inferno 182. Had the gloss black on there forever now and tempted by a colour swap on them to anthracite/silver.
This got me looking at anthracite 2118s, however i'm not sure if they look a bit pants on cars as high as mine.

I've no immediate intention to fit coilovers so the ride height is as it is for the forseeable

My car is on Cup dampers and Sportlines and is my daily.

Thoughts?

where are the mud flaps from ?

I think i would go silver too, I have anthracite 2118 on a flame red and quite like them, but Silver with the Turini's if it was my car.

Light anthracite would be my choice , Turinis just suit the car so well and think at that height they look/sit better on 15's.

The fact the 2118's are boat anchors they will probably weigh more that the Turinis , so worse looks and no unsprung weight advantage.

See if i can get some silver or anthracite centre caps and then get the rims done.

Could always try mine on one day mate,only need to do one side dont you to try them.

Also 16's suit clios on just lowering springs,15's need be on coilovers to pull them off i think.

Thanks chap that’s very kind of you. I tend to agree with you ref springs/coilovers comment. I love the Turinis, just a bit bored of them in Black I guess. It’s worn these black Turinis since 2011. 😅

I know what you mean,i love the turinis on the clio but i also have a set of Pro 1.2s in 15's but in gloss black.So prob get them sprayed in a nice silver for the summer as black wont look right on silver i think.

Lovely. Did the 15mm front spacers stay?
How did the spacers alter the drive?

Yeh, the front spacers stayed. Can't say it changed the drive much, I didn't notice anyway.

Photos are back in winter a few years ago but this shows it a bit better I think.
