Speedline help please???

[Matthew]

Hi all, I'm looking at some speedline turinis for sale from a mate, but dont know weather they would fit my clio 182 (with cup packs)

The fitment is, 4x100
et35
195/45/16

Thanks guys.....

They will fit, but when it comes to lowering or fitting 205 tyres then you may have problems with it scrubbing against the inner wheel arches.

^outer arches, that'll be 20mm wider overall (10mm per side)

Cheers guys - think ile hold on till I can afford some new ones then, with correct fitment...

problem is that the speedline only do turinis in 35 and 40 et, the 182 is 45 et.
The only way of getting the 45 et turinis is from the clio trophy, so either renault if they still do them or second hand.

Ah I see - thanks for that mate. Ime after 16's though and I thought the trophy ones were only 15's????

No the trophys are 16, am in the same position as you mate, i have the turinis in the 35 offset. Want to lower the car but think i will run into problems, so either i stick with the 182 alloys and lower it, or purchase some trophy turinis and lower it. Also the trophy have the right offset but they also have the diamond centre cap where the speedline turinis have a different size centre caps.

i have 17" speedlines and mines lowered fine they are 205/40/17, but yes the centre caps are bigger so i ended up making some so they look genuin to throw ppl off off lol

Feel free guys to call me thick, ime not really clued up with offsett ect, so could you help me out?

The lower the number, i.e et35 means the wheel is kinda further out ( so pushed towards the outer arch) and the higher the number, say et45 means the wheel is closer to the inner arch, and the arch wall?
