A few quick photos once home,just need a wash and protected applied.

Will look into getting some flush centre caps also,along with enkei wheel stickers.

Better than the evo wheels?🤔

 

[JimF]

Those wheels add so much character to the car, perfect 👌

Thanks mate,just need to find some centre caps to fit and paint them.

 

[Jamess182]

They look superb mate. Not really a fan of silver on silver though, I say this as someone who has silver superleggeras on my silver 182 right this moment! Bronze would've been the one imo!!

 

[MrBlonde]

I did consider a different colour,but i knew silver would work and looks clean.I still have the evo course wheels,so may do them a different colour @Jamess182

 

[yeecup]

i preferred the previous wheels tbh, not a fan of these on a clio. thats just my opinion of course.

I'm the same I think. The previous wheels were a lot more aggressive/race car in appearance which matched everything else you've done to the car.

I do like the wheels - but they're a lot more stance/JDM which is a bit of a mismatch at the moment IMO.

Still looks great though!

Yep i do understand what your saying and still have the old wheels,will let them stay on for now.If i did go back to the evo wheels i would change the colour tho,back to a nice silver or an anthracite of some kind but not the colour they are now.

 

[MrBlonde]

A few photos of the wheels/colours ive had so far on this car and still cant make my mind up!😆

 

[MrBlonde]

Not gone to 2118s yet tho 🤔

Steve, Steve, Steve. Give yourself a slap mate. Putting 2118's on will not only add all the weight you've removed from the car and then some but they will make it look absolutely bloody shite too. Silver turinis ftw 👍.

 

[MrBlonde]

@Clio_fool 2118s in silver tho?🤔 but i do love it on Turinis.So very very tempted get have them refurbed,new tyres and put back on.

 

[yeecup]

turinis >>>>>>> everything

 

[MrBlonde]

At the moment there a sport silver,which is metalic silver.Thinking to go a brill silver,which is a flat motorsport silver.Same as what i done the evos in.

Perfection right there ☝️

You're like a car chameleon with serious commitment issues 🤣

Tell me about it,i think its because i work on refurb wheels i always have the choice to change easily,rather than just stick.But Turinis is the one i think👌🏻

All your wheels look great. I liked the gold EVO Corse combination you had, but that's just me.

I think the factory look never gets old, so when a car has the standard cup or optional Turnini's fitted, it just looks right.

 

[MrBlonde]

Took the enkeis off today to give them a proper clean for players next saturday and then put the turinis on just to see again.

 

[Mr Underhill]

 

[MLB]

What he said 👆

As much as I like the Enkeis.

 

[Clio_fool]

I love it when I'm right. Just leave it like that Steve.

I Will refurb them this week,next question is what tyres.Back to PS3s or set of NS2Rs in 205/45/16 😬

 

[MrBlonde]

So the Enkeis are no more and have been sold to my boss for his clio track car.

Finally got the Turinis done,they werent the best,as once the paint had been stripped we found a lot of wheel rot 😟.So after doing them twice they are done,still not 100% but a lot better for 20 year old wheel.Also bought a pair of new ps3s,will get them coated etc and put on over the weekend.

Clio classic 👌

Where did you get the tyres from? I believe I see they're 195/45r16?

Yep there 195/45/16

Bought from camskill

 

[MrBlonde]

The turinis are back on now,i actually started to really like the evos on,in the anthracite.

 

[massiveCoRbyn]

Silver Turinis looks so good on this car I think. Best wheels it's had!

 

[MrBlonde]

Gave it a clean today and out for a short drive down the road to try and get some better photos,so sorry yes more photos.Need to upgrade my phone,its crap with photos.

 

[Jamess182]

That sits so well, nice work.

By FAR the second best looking silver Clio 182 on this forum

 

[MrBlonde]

Now that the Turinis are done,what colour to do the evos next?.(Few chips on them so excuse to do them😬🤟)
