My clio, sittin on 15x8 steels with stretched tyres ;)

[Dan@M.A.D]

Bought these a few weeks back and they have been a ball ache to fit, mate told me 5mm spacers would do so i bought them and they would clear the calipers, moved up to 10mm and still wheels wouldnt clear the calipers, finally found 15mm on the rear just cleared and 10mm on the front. Had to go for the stretched tyre to stop them catching the arches, they dont run at all. i might get the arches rolled just incase but no problems so far!, Next step will be to put clio sport front a rear bumpers and a bit of smoothing and im done. No point in spending much more that a couple of grand on a cheap car if you ask me, its just money down the drain. Spent around £1k so far and the car cost me £2k, Keep it for a couple of years then get somethin with a but more welley x

lower it a bit more and its a definate winner. What steels are they?

 

[Dan@M.A.D]

Cant lower it any more, its scrapes like f**k as it is, i live in the country (as you can probably tell form the barn in the background) so theres fukin cow s**t and mud everywhere ;( it does sit lower than that, i literally had just dropped it form the jack when i took this pik so springs didnt have time to compress fully, not sure what steels they have been machined on the rim and bored on the centre to fit a clio so pretty rare

That looks pretty good and the wheels look like polo g40 steels

 

[Haggarty]

yeh polished rims make them look like diamond racing wheels, looks good

 

[jack_kemp]

Looks very tidy mate!
You've definitely got the right idea with it, simple, effective mods.

 

[Addz]

I like that! Wheels really suit it

Rare? The company that makes 'em sells them on ebay - Have 5 sets up for sale at moment!.

Cheers for posting the pics of them on a Clio though, Was thinking of getting a set myself but hadn't decided between these or some deeper banded steels yet!.

 

[black_sunrise]

that does nothing at all for me

looks like something from micro machines

 

[Dan@M.A.D]

he only has a few sets of them and they are rare really, he had 20 sets to start with but how many will you see on a clio? im thinking 2 sets max, i was going to go down the bbs root but changed my mind, i want to be a bit different with them, heres another picture i got today which is ALOT better

Nice. I like that.

 

[Jon.G]

camber and lower

 

[Goodj]

wouldn't even bother about the bumpers chap. Maybe the grille, lose the side strips,get the rear lowered a little and done.

Oh, and Yellow fogs FTW

[Christopher]

They look really cool! Like Diamonds.

Looks lovely, really nice choice of wheel IMO

 

[Jacko90]

I like it!

 

[LJColeman]

I want these wheels on my clio!! Need them in my life!!!!

 

[Sam]

Thats lush. Like the car as it looks nice and standard baring the wheels.

Sam!

 

[LJColeman]

I love it! I'm now on a mission to get those wheels on my car! Might get my 13" steels that are sat in my garage banded

im sorry but i dont see why there is a hype over steels? what's their advantages?

It looks pants. Stretched tyres are dangerous and i'm surprised a tyre fitter agreed to fit them. Any decent tyre place won't do it. If you have an accident, your insurance will be void. and to go putting massive spacers on just to clear the callipers? wtf?

 

[LJColeman]

Wow... Killjoys these days!

 

[MonkeyKnifeFight]

Camber on the front would finish the look off, love'em they look amazing

 

[Joe#]

That looks really smart and unique! Tbh I wouldnt bother with bumpers etc but that's your choice

Dangerous? Find me an incident where they have become unseated? Japanese drift cars often run stretched rubber and im sure there tyres go through a lot more than mine ever will.

^^^ Probably best to ignore retarded comments

 

[WursleGumage]

How much did the steels and tyres cost? x
