Pro Race 1.2's - 15's or 16's?? Opinions?

[Jayms]

Hey, I've currently got a red campus sport and im thinking of picking up a set of Pro Race 1.2 but I'm unsure what size to go for,
most of the clio's I've seen on here have the Pro Race 15's on them but then the speedline turini's which I'm also quite fond of are 16's and sit perfectly on the 182's

I'm in no rush to get a set for this clio but I'm not a fan of the standard clio 182 alloys and I'd be able to take them with me when I change the car in the spring

Thanks

Well most people prefer 15's for handling/weight purposes and 16's for looks. Also tyres are cheap for 15's

Just really depends what's around if your buying secondhand and what you're looking for in the car

thanks, also if i bought the 16's with a lower profile tyre would that compensate in terms of the handling?

15s for me.

Less weight, lower c of g for same width tyre and generally a better tyre choice. Cheaper (both the wheels and tyres)

You guys go 15x7? What size tyre? 205/50/15?

 

[Ph1 Tom]

Yeah I run 205/50

The set I was looking at on ebay were on 195/55/16
I'd rather some 15s with a 45 tyre
