172 alloys

[james_1987]

Hi there i have sourced a set of decent 172 alloys. just needed to ask will they be a straight swap onto my 54 clio authentique? As i dont want to lay a lot of cash out for a waste of time, has anyone done this and does it have any set backs i.e rubbing. Also how hard is it to get it lowered?

Any advice is appreciated cheers

Welcome to CS!

I'm sure some one will correct me if I'm wrong but they should fit. With the lowering you will need either lower springs or coilovers depends how much money you've got, but obiously the more money the better product.

Cheers much appreciated so they will just bolt on and be able to drive fine oh by the way locking wheel nuts which do i need

I would suggest putting 5 mm spacers on the rear it will rub on the strut cover
