Couple of questions



  Mk5 R32 (ex.182 (Cupped))


First off, hi all :p

Just taken delivery of a brand new Dynamique 1.4 16V - 3Dr and need to know a few things.

What size rims will fit on it without archwork, with a bit of lowering maybe. I dont want it lookin like a monster truck ;)

At the moment ive got 16" super ts on my 95 clio which has been lowered 35mm, used to have a bit of rubbage but now thats gone ;)

And also... Does anyone know how much work I can do to it without the warrenty etc being void? I dont think im gonna play with engine or anything like ive done with my old clio..so.. ?

Appreciate any info, cheers.
 


18s without arch mods - std suspension

17s with 60mm drop

ask your dealer about mods, they are all different

Ok cool, nice one.

Do these new clios need a 60mm drop to make them look normal when they are on 17s ? And theres definatly no rubbing even with like 5 people in the car?



Cheers again.
 


there is only a light rub when on full lock and fully loaded

IMHO they need to be slammed 60mm on all wheels, they just dont look right std or with a 35mm drop

-30mm and it will only rub a little in the back with the car full lock with 17" but it is no prob. look ok. -60 and you can´t load the car and go over bumbs !

mines on 17s with 35mm drop, no rubbing at all. Pretenders is on 17s with 60mm drop, only very slight rub on full lock. Go 4 17s u know it makes sense. :D
