Just Bought another nice set of 17inch Oz F1 Cup wheels

[caymanr26]

Well chuffed - found these on ebay and made the guy an offer - he hadnt done a great advert and did not mention the fact that they are Oz wheels - I already have a set on my clio 172 as below but have bought these for my girlfriends 1.4 16v clio - its like the clio cup blue in colour so these should look good with it - they are black with a glitter effect so change colour in the sun - would have liked them on my car but offset is 4mm out - nevermind!

heres what they look like on mine

heres the new ones

just need some lowering springs and some tyres now if anyone has any??

they look really great, 4mm difference, in or out? shouldnt make too much difference!

 

[Middo]

they'll look nice

looking for wheels for mine at the mo, but never seem to come across any bargains lol

 

[caymanr26]

out unfortunately - if it was in I could get some spacers - They are ET38 - I used to have ET37 and they rubbed so now have ET42 and no rubbing at all - oh and they rub the rear arches not the front - and only because my car is so low now - with eibach springs it did not rub with the ET37

 

[caymanr26]

they are like my andromeda badges Mark - would have looked good on mine!

 

[patty]

wow! how much?

 

[d4ve86]

what suspension your using? just lift it up a tiny bit!!

 

[caymanr26]

Keep looking Mark there are bargains to be had out their ?(i got 4 x 18 Oz for £216 off ebay then sold tyres and got a crackin set of nearly news for an extra £30)

The new ones would have looked good on yours shame but at least the gf will be good to you

 

[caymanr26]

mine werent quite as good a bargain as that but still not bad - the advert said brand new but I guess they have been reconned as dont think Oz made them in that colour - The ones on my car were originally £750 without tyres (although I did not pay anything lik that) so in comparison these are a bargain - as long as I can find some cheap tyres

sod! just after iw anted a set.

 

[Englebert]

How low is your car then Tim? What area did you get the rubbing?

 

[dannyboy172]

They look mint mate - really like the f1 cup's

 

[Maz]

Nice one they look the nuts

 

[caymanr26]

my car is set to as low as it can be at the rear on H&R coilovers - the rear tyres were cathcing the top outside edge of the wheel arches under hard acceleration or coming down off a speed bump etc - was only just catching so was a bit annoying but choices were either hack a load of metal away or get different wheels - seemed like a ood excuse to get better wheels as well!

Dansta still not decided if I can really afford to mod my girlfriends car as well so may consider selling for the right price

 

[bradfincham]

RRR tim i want your car!

 

[caymanr26]

haha thanks Brad - Ive only had those wheels about a month or so but am really happy with the way it looks now

 

[Adam]

they look spot on
