meanwhile heres some pictures of my car ....

i've showed you mine, lets see yours (and by that i mean clio)

 

[R-Sport.]

[colesy]

Welcome along

172 cup number 1
172 cup number 2 lol

 

[geordieracer]

what width are those tyres? 5.5j? Skinny FTL

 

[Kane.]

I didn't know Clio's came with steelies as standard...

 

[Joe#]

I didn't know Clio's came with steelies as standard...

Optional extra iirc.

Good clean car to start with. Lows and some white speedlines would look great.

 

[Rob]

Are you going to bung some decent wheels on it? Very nice (first iirc?) car.

 

[Cliosaregay]

yeah i hope to getting paid from work tomorrow so might get some this weekend! any recommendations?

 

[Dan]

Something different for the wheels, sayin that turbines would prob go well on this car in a good colour, but needs lows as well to pull it off

 

[BoatNonce]

Those wheels make it look like a rental lol

Get some decent (WIDER) rims on there.

 

[Sean_SilverstoneGP]

very nice first car tho. looks very clean. wish my first was like that!

 

[Sean_SilverstoneGP]

Welcome along

View attachment 75807172 cup number 2 lol

.....very nice! why have you got 2? one a full track?

 

[Struggler]

the black and white theme works well!!

serious lows and nice wheels will make it look ace, then just little touches from there!!

white williams wheel?! not seen them on a mk3, i think theyll look awesome tbh!!

not sure if itll need bigger wheels though. but please keep the wheels subtle, dont do what too many other young drivers do and go for from grotty horrible chav wheels!! OEM+ FTW!

 

[GoldenMonkey]

Needs more alloys!

 

[Adamm.]

Lows and some new wheels would definitely be on the top of my list.

 

[Struggler]

black badges, silver visions and 197/200 rear bumper would also look cool imo

 

[HANDSOME RICH]

welcome along!!

my ph2 172, go for something different wheelwise....

im winning the bid on these at the moment lol

 

[Daz_RT_04]

Williams wheels would look oddly small on a mk3 Imo.

 

[Cliosaregay]

Oh don't worry I'm not a chav cheers guys! Yeah I really need to lower it and change my wheels I saw a clio mk3 on black borbet a's ... Looks quite nice! And also my badges are black

 

[Struggler]

im winning the bid on these at the moment lol

oops, sorry for adding possible competition!! good luck!!

Daz i was thinking this, might be worth finding some other pictures of mk3s on 15's before considering most wheels from the mk1/2 range!!

a guy on here had pink wheels on a black mk3 nonsport, pretty sure they were 15's and they looked great with epic lows!!

sorry for the terrible pic, was stolen off a mates fb!!

 

[GoldenMonkey]

I'd also tone down on the teenage girl pop art haha

 

[Cliosaregay]

Black Compomotive th's would look nice but they are around £600 with out tyres :/ which I cannot afford also what's best to use when lowering a car? Springs or coilovers?

 

[BoatNonce]

Coilovers if you care about handling and adjustability.

 

[Struggler]

coilovers,

springs barely get you a noticable drop!!

do some research, theres a high chance renault didnt change the hubs from the old mk2s in which case youll be able to pick coilovers up pretty cheap!!

 

[Cliosaregay]

Sweet thanks for the advice any idea on roughly how much it boosts insurance Aswell!?

 

[Struggler]

couldnt comment, sorry.

looking at the suspension layout of the mk3 i doubt mk2 ones could be made to fit, sorry if i got hopes up there!
but im sure there will be a line of budget coilovers out there for the mk3s!

 

[TimR26]

I'd check with your insurance company before buying any mods as i doubt they'll cover them with you being 17.

 

[GoldenMonkey]

Oh didn't realize you was that young, I'd avoid mods till you got at least 1year NCB. Depending on the company you're with, they might try to rape your premiums over any mod, even something as trivial as alloys. Bet you're having to pay close to £4000 a year?

 

[Turkish]

I'd check with your insurance company before buying any mods as i doubt they'll cover them with you being 17.

Correct, or if they do he'll see a massive hike in his premium. It's all well and good people on here having a pop and reeling off a shopping list of what the OP should buy but it will cost £££'s. Arguably not worth the expense and hassle on a cooking model. Just enjoy the independence of having your own car and try not to crash it then waste money on the next car you get IMO.

 

[glowworm105]

Imo 15" alloys look far to small , the arches are massive i have 17" at the minute with a 35mm drop and it looks ok but im still not happy so i think im going lower , i have been informed the mk2 coilovers dont fit so theres no cheap option really

 

[Cliosaregay]

atm my insurance is more than my car -____- it really does suck! I'm gonna ring them today and ask if it will add anything extra ...

 

[Kane.]

Get some decent (WIDER) rims on there.

My thoughts exactly lol.

How much are you paying if you dont mind me asking ?

 

[Adam.P]

Whereabouts in Oxfordshire are you from?

 

[Cliosaregay]

oxford :L you?

 

[Adam.P]

Near Bicester way.

 

[Cliosaregay]

ah wicked should meet up sometime! get some more people as well!

 

[Adam.P]

Yeah an oxfordshire meet would be decent. Not sure who the area rep is round here though.

 

[OneTime_]

Put the standard wheels back on. Leave it alone. Save for a 1*2/197/200.
