My new alloys maybe not everyone's choice !!

[Hj172sport]

Well where do I start lol !! I've been and got a new set of alloys from my m8 for the clio however the wheels came off a vauxhall so I've had to rebore them as they were et49 I do like the alloys that's on mine at the moment but to be fair I like to be different !!

my alloys at the moment

the wheels I've now got and started to refurb them trial fit of 1 alloy

they do need a refurb !!

 

[Diagro]

No center caps?

Tbh I would prefer the first set if 15"

 

[Hj172sport]

Yes I've got the centre caps I was trial fitting m8 , the first set are 16's there gonna be my main use on the car and these others will be used as my winter wheel's !!

 

[Diagro]

The black ones 15"
Want sell ? Haha

 

[JAMason]

i like the look of these!

 

[Hj172sport]

They actually came off a corsa b and a lot of old school astra's and cavaliers had these on !! As soon as I've done a refurb on them and sprayed them white I'm sure they will look good , I'm still waiting for my spacers to arrive this week too !!

I was going to say I recognised them, had some on my old Corsa B.

 

[LiamR172]

Quite like those! Be smart once they are refurbished.

 

[Hj172sport]

Better pic of the alloys on a nova

but as I've said I wanted to be different and not have the same old alloys on a clio !

 

[danward]

I had them on a Corsa B, they are called Cesaros.

 

[Daniel]

Chip and leslie had some on a mk1 and a black 172.

Good looking wheels tbh. Vauxhall Cesaros?

Yep they sure are - cesaro's

[LiamR172]

You should get them painted silver instead of white.

 

[Hj172sport]

U think I should ? Will defo think about it

 

[Lal B3N]

Et49 was nothing to do with why you had to rebore them

Look good though!

 

[Hj172sport]

Cause the centre bore on the wheels were too small and wouldn't fit so had to make them slightly bigger to fit

 

[LiamR172]

They look great in silver on that nova^. Would look better than white on the clio imo

Et is the offset. Centre bore and offset are two different things mate.

 

[Hj172sport]

Oh lol we'll either way I've now bored them out and they go over the hubs and all line up , so it's just getting them stripped down and sanded !!

 

[Knuckles]

How did u bore thm out m8? Luk awsum.

nutha vote for silver

 

[Hj172sport]

REQUIRED TOOLS:


Router
Rabbet router bit with a 1⁄2” depth and width of cut
WD-40

is all I used m8 and to be fair it's done a good job of them and they fit so ( happy days )

 

[Hj172sport]

It's gonna take a while to do a proper re-furb but I do think they will look good on , I was havering a think last night of doing them orange lol

 

[jackaleks]

...I hope you got a proper machine shop to bore them out to the correct Renault centre bore.

Otherwise I'd invest in some spigot rings.


EDIT: never mind.

 

[Hj172sport]

I do have some spigot rings to match the renault centre bore

 

[James28]

What color you doing them?

I hope they're concentric.

 

[Hj172sport]

I hope they're concentric.

Meaning ? My m8 lent me the bits to do it as he had done his wheels before

as for colour - think silver but am thinking white or lime green lol

I hope the new bores aren't egg shaped.

Silver or a dark silver every time. Lime green will look halfords/McDonald carpark in my opinion and White should be the reserve of the rally bread car!

 

[Hj172sport]

Just an update on my 2 of the rims

 

[Knuckles]

Looking good, any pics of the bore?

 

[Hj172sport]

I've done the 2 cb on them 2 wheels m8
