Ive got an 06 clio 1.2 16V and want to get some alloys. Can anyone tell me whats the biggest i can go?? also whats the widest tyre i can get without modding my arches etc...

Thanks

18's the biggest and probably 7.5 width.... wont be able to lower it though so you'll basically have a tractor

 

[zack13]

So maybe i should stick with 15's?? or get 17's?? what do you recommend? i dont want to lower it.

Nice set of 16's and lower 40mm. Will look better than silly 18's...

Is an 06 plate Mk3?

Tys.

17s and 40mm drop............

15's leave you with too much gap between the arches and wheels... i think 16's and a small drop is a good comprimise...

^^ NOT true - actual overall diameter & circumference for 185/55x15, 195/45x16 and 205/40x17 is almost IDENTICAL - just proportionally more rubber, less rim with smaller wheels!

maybe i'll just get 17's. send it pictures people. then i can get a better idea!! also where can i get clio sport accesories, front grills etc for my 1.2??

btw tys its a Mk2. dont like the Mk3.

get 16s and deck it

dont get 17's without lowering though it will look stupid imo. plus make it slower and the ride will be s**t lol.

i would go for a nice set of 16's and deck it 60mm
