Alternative wheels to Turini's?

[M@tt_182]

I've had my Turini's on my 182 for a couple of months now however I've started to get bored of them. I really like the oem look so don't want anything halfords style! What are my options apart from 2118's?

The car is lowered on Sportlines and no preference on 15's or 16's.

OZ F1s?

Or just get the colour changed on the Turinis?

 

[Dan@M.A.D]

OZ F1'S lok the business!

 

[Gaz.]

They suit Ph1s better though. Superleggeras however...

 

[M@tt_182]

My only worry with 15's is the drop on Sportlines isn't that much. I did think about some oz wheels but didn't know if they'd look a bit too aftermarket?

 

[Ad172UK]

What colour are your Turinis?

 

[Spinksy]

Williams wheels (off the old willy clio's) they look smart on phase 2's

 

[Struggler]

2118's are the best wheel option on a ph2 if you have the £££'s

 

[mr.pink87]

Ultraleggeras are the way forward.

Sort of similar to turinis but different as has a dish

I had 2118's when my car was on sportlines, whilst they don't look that bad it's still not 100% right. Save up for some coileys and then invest in 15" IMO. If you want, I can swap my standard alloys for the turinis

 

[M@tt_182]

Coilovers would be ideal but I really don't want them. I like the ride and height the Sportlines give so it seems stupid to change them. I've always wanted some 2118's so I might put mine up for swaps. I've still got my standard wheels waiting for a refurb but not that fussed by those either.

This is how it currently looks:

 

[Mark-F]

how much do you want for them?

 

[M@tt_182]

Not looking to sell, would be a straight swap if I was to let them go.

I take it you got 16's on atm then? I may be wrong but i'm pretty sure the rolling radius between say a 14" wheel with 185/60/14 tyres against a 15" rim with 195/50/15 tyres and a 16" rim on 195/45/16 would be about the same so not really a noticable difference in ride hight. Only the tyre giving the impression of a lower ride hight. Maybe way off but just a thought.

 

[M@tt_182]

Yeah I did think about that and the 15's can look ok. The wheels that are currently on are 16's.

 

[Owen]

Think the turinis look bang on tbh mate!

 

[JackJack]

Pro race 1.2s?

 

[JonC219]

Williams replica wheels look good to me...

 

[Coops Mk1]

see if you can source some 16" superleggeras

i love superlegs but only have 15" sets currently but i have coilies so it helps, i intend to get sportlines however at some point so i will be trying to get some 16" superlegs again as i sold mine 18 months ago stupidly

 

[StephenJ]

Car looks perfect as it is.

 

[Jonny1*2]

Ultraleggeras are the way forward.

This. They suit the ph2 very well. Plus you can make some OEM centre caps for them

 

[M@tt_182]

I'll look out for some ultras I think, prbly rare as rocking horse sh*t though....

 

[Chris_786]

Turini's are awesome!:

So are F1's:

 

[Chris205]

Turini's are a PITA to clean though.

I used to have ultraleggera's on my silver cup, was nice. I'm considering going for Black ultraleggera's on my BG 182, make it look stealthy

 

[MartinR]

Turinis, f1's and 2118s are sheep wheels:rasp: If you don't have them then you are not a proper CS member lol..

Superleggeras are where its at..

 

[M@tt_182]

I'm tempted to go back to the oem anthracite wheels for a while, they make cleaning the car so much easier!

Or you could go for super turismo's

 

[r0ss172]

I think these would look smart, albeit a bit bright!!

I have these in Titanium colour.....only 6.3Kg in 16"
These or silver superturismo's would get my vote.

Are supperlegeras easy to get hold of?


I thought they were quite rare

Superlegs whilst fantastic look kinda similar to Turinis.
Go for Turbines if you want the classic Renault motorsport look.
