Alloy Wheel Question

[chrisn01]

Hiya all

Just a quick one, would these alloys fit a clio 182 as not quiet sure what offset and ET mean?

Cheers

Offset - 7Jx16CH
ET - 35
PCD - 100/4
Tyre size - 195 45 R16

no, needs ET43 for a 182 cup

 

[chrisn01]

what does ET Mean?

 

[Renault_Boy01]

its the offset...the offset metioned in the 1st post is just the dimensions of the alloys

 

[fUbAr]

what does ET Mean?

 

[chrisn01]

lol so if the 182 is ET43, does that mean you could go for say ET44 or ET42 then?

 

[fUbAr]

you won't be able to go higher, as the wheels will probably hit the shocks.

the lower the offset, the more the wheel will "stick out"

Understood, one more quick question, would turinis fo a 172 cup fit a 182 with cup pack?

Cheers

they will fit a car with standard ride-height, but i still wouldn't

the only factory-fit turinis that will fit a cupped 182 are the Trophy wheels like i have, they are the correct offset for the 182

Hiya

Sorry to be a pain, so has a 182 (ET43) got a different Offset to a 182 with cup suspension and if so, does any one know what it is?

Cheers
