What Size Alloys

[Harpham]

Hi,
I was wondering what sized alloys look best on a Clio.

the wheels im going for are OZ Supertourismo GT's... Im not sure whether to go for 15" or 16" ???

Help pleasseee!!!

15s require a lot of lowering to look right. go 16

 

[micallef1990]

go for 16's mate or 15 if your getting your car 60mm or lower

I would go for 15"s. They feel better due to 50 profile tyres, and tyres are MUCH cheaper.

Yeah 195/50 R15 profile tyres are very cheap.

are 16" tyres expensive then? what sort of price difference would it be for them instead of 15 tyres?
and im planning on lowering it 40/50mm

Not all the time m8y, because they have offers and 195/45 16 are common now, look on k-tec for example or demon tweeks just to get an idea. But if you do get 16's you need it lowering 60mm plus or you wont be happy m8y

Im planning on getting a coilover kit (next week hopefully) that i will be able to lower it between 30-70mm...
but if i go 60mm, will it mean that i cant get over speed bumps properly without scraping my undercarrage??

Isn't that all part of the fun?

i suppose, but then again, i dont wanna knacker up my car... lol

but then again, it may look a million times better at 60mm rather than 50mm, we shall see next week when i get them lol

£40 for a decent 195/50/R15
£90 for a decent 205/45/R16
