Wheel choices, need your thoughts!

[Djw John]

Well firstly a big huge thanks to Clio G_B for doing all the hard work for! :star: :star: :star:

Got to decide what to put on my megane coupe and hes kindly done a few chops

Firstly how it is now with standard 15" wheels

Lowered

Same style of wheels but 16"s

Different colour

172 wheels (Thanks to Alan for the pic)

Darker 172 wheels

Really dark 172 wheels!

So what does everyone prefer?

Cheers
John

 

[Giles]

I like the really dark 172 wheels or the other 16" wheels

 

[Alan]

172 rims would work tho i think the standard wheels done anthracite would be tidy too..

 

[Djw John]

Yeah Im trying to decide between

and the dark 172 wheels

 

[John185k]

them^^^^

 

[Andy_J]

yeah i like the meg 16"s anthracite too!

 

[chris509]

i like the standard wheels and lowered

 

[Nafoff]

darkest 172's

 

[Djw Dave]

Yeah Im trying to decide between

and the dark 172 wheels

They are nice but do they make them in 16"??

Darker 172 wheels are nice though

 

[Giles]

^^ yes they do in 16"

 

[The Big Yin]

I like that one but dare i say it what about some willy wheels in gunmetal with a polished lip


I'll let you try the 18's on for size if you like lol

 

[Spiezels]

172's

 

[V1NNY]

i'd say a set of anthracite HT3's would look mint

 

[Middo]

i'd go for the meg 16'' wheels in a charcoal type colour. only problem is thats probably the most expensive option when you factor in buying/refurbing/tyres

 

[Justin]

182 wheels would look good!

 

[Djw John]

Aye Dave you do but they seem to be pretty rare, none for sale just now.

mmm willy wheels, hadnt thought of them, maybe aye.

182 wheels are the turinis of the coupe scene! They do look good but quite a few folk have them.

Vinny I think you're right but dont fancy going aftermarket tbh

 

[Ally]

What I'd do:

1. Standard 15s refurbed in anthracite/darker and lowered

2. 172 wheels anthracite/darker and lowered.

I'm really liking the contrast between silver paintwork and darker wheels. Deffo got to lower it IMO. Both the standard wheels in 15/16 or 172 rims on a darker clour whould be sweet.

[cli0 172]

16's in anthracite

Willy wheels would be cool, but think it needs 16" to fill the arches out.

 

[Djw John]

Thought you were against the idea of 16s?! I know what you mean though, theres more metal on this one than the clio!!

Been thinking dynamique wheels for winter would be cool

 

[Giles]

which wheels you going for John?

 

[Djw John]

Dunno!

 

[Rufstuf]

Dark 16" meggy ones look the best.

 

[Giles]

Dunno!

need help

 

[GarethM]

im not sure tbh

if i had to pick id say the 172 wheels dark

 

[joel_b]

172 rims, Gunmetal spray

 

[Djw John]

Dark 16" meggy ones look the best.

Yeah I do like them and the fact that they are rare is nice too, does mean finding them will be trickly though!

The 172 rims would be nice to, always been a fan of simple 5 spokes

:S:S

 

[Limca]

i had a quick go on photoshop with your megane slammed on 17"turinis.

 

[Djw John]

Cheers but tbh Im not a fan, dunno why though, maybe not chunky enough. Appreciate it though!

 

[fUbAr]

keep the standard rims, in the standard silver.

use the money saved on the wheels for some coilovers and lower the car to a nice height on the standard rims. Would look ace, and improve the handling no end.

 

[Djw John]

The lowering wil be done first anyway, but I do eventually want to change the wheels

 

[The Big Yin]

What about these John standard renault wheels look nice Jimbo66 is selling a set quite cheap and tyres are quite cheap for these

 

[Djw John]

Yeah I like them but dont like 17s!

 

[The Big Yin]

You never heard of compromise you fussy bugger lol

 

[R20 CWH]

mk2 172 wheels in anthracite

recoat are the boys for that!

ill seel you my 172 alloys as well john. If you want i can give you them if you go to the meet on the 8th.

saves me taking them to my new pad

 

[lemonnobby]

Megane coupe IDE wheels are nice i think.

 

[Christopher]

2.0 meggy alloys look good on there. as said above, they were on the 2l ide

 

[Djw Dave]

Im not all that keen on 16's cos of the tyre prices. But i can sort that for you

 

[Djw John]

Yeah bit keener now that i know what I can get

I'll let you know Chic, got other things that are more of a priorty tbh
