New Mk3 Clio Dynamique S 138 2.0

[BioHzrd]

If your gonna get spacers and you want the wheels pritty much in line with the edge of the arch then ul want 25mm spacers like mine 20mm will puch them out but youll stll have a bit of a gap.

I certainly wound not be running different spacers front and rear, that'll proper screw the handling imo........ Keep them the same.

s**te man... i never thought that different sizes from front to rear could effect the handling badly :S ? i was gona plan on putting 25mm front and 30mm rear :S... but then again im no techno-t on things like that... im guessing putting the same size spacers front and rear should improve the handling tho? since itl b wider ?? or am i totaly wrong?? :S :S :S :S

Well yeah, think about it, if your pushing the rears out more than the front it'll feel strange on turn in imo..... Rear wheel drive cars have a wider track on the back, be it wider axle or wider wheels (think BMW M3 etc) FWD cars are generally similar front and rear. If Your going to use spacers make sure they are the same size front to rear......

Stop eing a wimp and get the spacers lol !!!! :rasp::evil:

As for deriving better its feels the same as it was before hand witch was great but thats no doubt down to it being down on its arse on rock hard coils ! Still wheels puched out make it look alot meaner imo specialy on the move !

Love this pic even with colin out the window !

 

[Šįk]

lol yea thats a class pic, car looks mint!! i really do think 17s would set it off even more tho..

Its 45s that are on there atm was the first thing i did when i got it home dumped the 195/50 for some lovly sticky 195/45 Toyo T1Rs ! and on the other front youll just have to wait and see mate ! :rasp::evil:

 

[Šįk]

oooooooo i didnt relise u had already done that lol, maby even new 1" alloys... turnis maby?? hhmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm :S

 

[Phill1978]

lol yea thats a class pic, car looks mint!! i really do think 17s would set it off even more tho..

well.. i agree.

even though anthracite seem to add more to the clio 138 (i think biohzd has 15" standard ? i.e not a clio 138) and they get 16" wheels..
think the wheels are probably a bit too small for a car just about the same size as the current megane but with bigger arches ! maybe in the flesh they will look ok though.


correct me if im wrong, this is running 16" and i shopped it lower than the already lowered suspension he had (i.e 40mm wasnt enough imo) its more of a real indication of 16" wheels on a MKIII, they look an inch too small imo.

and i think you can see the wheels are really a bit too small. it does look quite 'rally' but i dont think it holds the whole size of the clio together.

 

[Phill1978]

on the other hand with 17" (although the handling maybe screwed but it aint no 197 anyways is it ! )

http://gateway.selltec.com/go/elia/...V0b181NjkyMjg4/pic/seiteclio3ventis-nizza.jpg

17 x 7.5


so thats about perfect imo

 

[BioHzrd]

Mines has got the 16" Canastas like that mate....Still its each to there own and i see nout wrong with the 16" and personaly hate big wheels unless there actualy standard on a car..

 

[Šįk]

yea defo, 17" and lowerd 40-50mm i think ftw!!! 16s do still look gr8 tho but i think the 17 look tht tad better..

Size isnt everything :rasp:

 

[Šįk]

LOL

 

[BioHzrd]

Oh and 40mm on a Mk3 no where near enough slammage for my taste ! 70mm FTW !

 

[Phill1978]

lowered it

^ 17 x 7.5 " lowered as far as i think it would go.


I agree 16" with spacers and low does look great still and isnt too chav with the wheels being large which imo with the wrong 17`s would look that way. however some of the 197 cup wheels look like a smaller 17" (if you see what i mean) and in a dark colour like black wouldnt be too large on the eye.

 

[BioHzrd]

Pics a bit small....Only down side is renault thought it would be a great idea to change the studs on the RS's to 5 Stud so no 197 wheels without new Hubs on expensive converter spacers....

Wednesday night i will hopefully change your minds on the Bigger is Better theme going on with the Mk3s ! :butt::clap:

No doubting it looks nice and squat in that pic! :approve: 20mm MAX would be my limit on spacers. Getting my spare set of wheels done Black first........

[BioHzrd]

Wheels are horride but part from that its spot on

 

[Šįk]

LOL!! y?

 

[jon1993]

The body roll on standard Mk3s is just unsafe !!!!

Mine started to slide sideways and fell over without touching a thing so yes they are unsafe!!!!! Multiple roles later and a clio almost unreconisable proves this lol.

 

[BioHzrd]

Holy bump batman its 4 years ago !

 

[ClutchPlay]

Looks good mate!

 

[Millbilly]

Check emissions
Check injector + fuel something messages. Sunroof stopped working.
Drove I away from evans halshaw like a dream.... phfffttt how wrong was I.

Anyone else had these problems?

 

[cat171]

My mum had one from basically new, it's still in the family & has only done about 30k with no problems at all. I drove it a few times, body roll is terrible & it needs lowering to make it look better, other than that it's ok for the motorway.
