Smallest wheels?

[Matt78]

Hi guys,

What's the smallest diameter alloy you can fit to a Mk2 ph2 clio? It's a 1.2?
A friend of mine is planning on getting one this weekend, and wants to put 13's on, and then slam it.

Possible?

 

[GazCB]

probably, but this sounds like the most bizarre thing I've ever heard. It'll look like a rollerskate.

 

[C.slicker]

Lmao at looking like a rollerskate!

I think 14s due to the caliper position.

takes the brakes off and put on 10" minilites

 

[Matt78]

think he's going to use these........

i tried 13's on mine for a laugh and they would not fit because of the calipers... 14's are smallest i think...

 

[jamesp24]

haha i think thats guna look super silly with 13s.

I think it could work. VeeDubs have had the Euro look (small wheels, smoothed etc) for ages. Think it would suit the more rounded shape of the clio better.

Plus it would improve the somewhat sluggish acceleration of a 1.2!

I tried 13s on my 182, not a chance lol

Doh,

Those alloys are only available in 13". Any other suggestions if he's gotta use 14's?

what about:

He's a pretty committed low-rider, but having to downsize from his current car due to insurance, being only 19.

That's him. I work with him. Not sure he's selling the Benz, but I've persuaded him that if he wants a daily driver/runaround to get a clio.

The Benz is amazing, love it!
