Have a look on the Mx5 forums for a used set of those Sportmaxx wheels, a lot of people run them. Most run 8x15 in a zero offset. That Eg Civic is awesome.

Ive always liked sticker randomness... but have a weird thing of not being able to find anything, or can never decided what will actually look good/comedy!

You mean fitting the the arch? Should be alright but if it comes down to it i may have to do the unthinkable.....raise it up slightly! :eek:

Blasphemy! How dare you even think of raising it! lol. ;) If they are a bit of a biatch to fit then more stretch and/or a bit of camber will sort you out a treat. :rasp:

And trust, banded steelies look awesome, nearly had my mates old G60's. They look awesome in the metal, so yea whack them on my friend, can't wait to see them on! :D

Re: My own style Clio...finally thread up lol

Banded steelies look gash.... on that corsa but your car should definately pull them off, look forward to seeing it. IMO don't get that plate. If you want something unusual on a clio, I've always wondered what the taller plates look like. kinda opposite to the 3/4 plates, i think they are 5/4 or maybe 6/4, might be worth a look into?

Re: My own style Clio...finally thread up lol

Yer like the Jap plates. Cheers for the comments aswell.

Going to get some good pics of mine and my mates c2 with banded steels on aswell once i get them on :)

Going to smooth the plate bit out anyway so got to put it at bottom.

Re: My own style Clio...finally thread up lol

Righty ho, got the cage in tonight kinda lol. Not bolted or even cable tied in yet but was raining and didnt have enough time lol :eek: Think the yellow looks the t!ts against the blue so going for Yellow stuff now instead of red lol. Starting to re spray stuff at weekend lol.

Also got the wheels but tbh are in a pretty shocking condition! :eek: Really suprised tbh, cos they looked so much better in pics, but meh dosnt matter really cos im going to powder coat everything white then spray centers Yellow.

And also bought some VW G60 Center caps for them aswell, nice lil touch i reckon :)

Re: My own style Clio...finally thread up lol

3 hours later and still havnt bored any of the wheels out, taking the piss to be honest, 3 hours grinding one wheel out!!!!!

Got to get someone to do the rest cos i cant lol. How would i do it?

Re: My own style Clio...finally thread up lol

lol you change your mind more than a woman. love the car though, makes a change to see someone do somthing different and not get the pi$$ taken for it.
remember seeing this at the photo meet we had in dec (i was in the black 172 next to you)and though it looked mint.
glad to see your going back to the original sort of ideas you had as although i like the compomotives, they are similar to what everyone tends to do but this car is different and i think its that, that makes it look so nice and stand out.
