[oliver.james]

Ah, I've just realised this is the white one that used to live near me

 

[jamie.91]

I've been waiting so long for something like this, slightly hellaflush what size are the wheels and are the arches rolled ? how much the wheels set you back if you don't mind me asking ?

Thanks Jamie

[Nick172Cup]

That looks tough as f**k! What rotas are they?

 

[kerry-w]

Wow that looks ace! Great job will keep a watch on this thread

 

[chriscummins7]

looks f**king awesome!

 

[Jam_172]

they 16x8 Rota grid drifts mate,

think they suit it down to the ground i love em
and yeah it was originally a 1.2, conversion done by ktec, got s**t load of reciepts for it, the previous owners have just spent a fortune. i cant justify the £5500 the dude paid ktec for the conversion.. yes 5500! mental!

 

[vail3r]

Rotas look ace!!

 

[mwn11]

What offset are they to be able to fit 8's?

 

[chrispy.clio]

535 mate from revolution at newcastle, without tyres

the are et 10 mate, had to flare the back archs to fit em
but you can fit wider just i chose et 10 so i had concave spokes, otherwise they'd just be similar to comp 2s

 

[Cliodan26]

Looks brilliant ive got rota grids on my non sport 15 by 7j

[subarufreak]

16x8's only come in et10 though mate, regardless of the blurb up top.

Looks spot on mate, found a photo of this the other day somewhere else and have to say it looks spot on. I was gonna get a set of these myself last summer, tried my mates set on mine but didn't suit a 5 door at all. But I'm glad someone has finally done it! The wheels suit the Clio's lines down to the ground. The rear flare looks awesome too with the wheel set up. Keep it up dude, big fan of this already .

 

[Rich_172]

You can get the normal grids in et35 tho mate. They aint got the dished spokes though

 

[Jam_172]

yeah thats right et35 ones aint concave

with et10.. the fronts sit spot on, the rears werw about a 1inch too far out

 

[stephen chadwick]

this looks the tits man. absoloutly loving it verry jdm style and just looks like it belongs on the track. if i could pick your brains please, what sorta camber is on the rear looks a fair amoun ans do you get much rubbing? its a shame about them having to be 8" for the dished spokes. i had the same problem with my 200sx i had to get 9" to have the concaved spokes on the torques.

chears steve

 

[Jam_172]

couldnt tell you mate ive never meaured it , used to rub like crazy

 

[Andy_Foz]

Lovely wheels, mate! Always been a huuuge fan of Rotas as im from a predominantly japcar-owned background. Always loved takata coloured Rotas, but I think I could be swayed by orange ones now....
