Please can everyone post pictures of their lowered clios (preferably 40mm and black) with 16 inch wheels on. my car failed the MOT with 17s so i may need to swap!

thanks a lot everyone.
 
My 172 on Speedline Turinis and 40mm APEX kit.

i love your car carbon, you got any closer pictures... do you think i should do it, or find some steelies and swap em on and off for the MOT?
 
why did it fail on 17's?? that doesnt make sense. it can fail due to needing new tyres, but not because the wheels are too big! i know someone with an older shape civic that is runnning 20" alloy wheels! that went through mot fine and ,standard was 13/14" steelies
 
My Car on 16" rims and lowered -35mm on Full Kit!

Its now got a little dint in the side passenger door lol.
 
my handling was mint mate, with 16's on but if my cars wrote off i am going 17's lowered -60mm on full kit lol

How bad was it rubbing on full lock? Never heard that before? Where did you take it for its MOT?
 
was at the official garage mate, SMC one in Woking, Surrey. I think it only touched on full lock, it is lowered as well, maybe that had an effect.

Does anyone reccomend borrowing some wheels off someone and using them for it, or should I swap?

:(
 
ive never heard of that. mine drop 70mm on 17 and past.if i was you i would go somewhere else..
 
post sum pics of ur car up dude!

If u like ur 17s just get sum old steelys or sumthing to pass mot then put ur rims bk on!

Vinny whats the difference between the 16 and 17s ride wise ?

I had problems with mine rubbing but it was just the liner needed a bit of manipulation might be an idea to see where it rubs and get a BIG hammer to it
