Opinions on these wheels?

[C2kev]

Finally found some alloys i like, and for a good price too. Just wandering what peoples opinions are on them. 17" in white fitted to a 2004 flame red 172, please dont say i should get 16's instead because i already have a set of tyres to go on these.

all comments welcome good or bad

 

[domjolly]

think they would look alright (look a little like oz ultraleggras) how much are they setting you back (p.s not sure on 17" though lol)

Nice wheels, but will look Huuuuuge! And will be a pain in the arse to keep clean.

 

[DrR]

Yeah don't get 17", otherwise look good.

 

[Ay Ay Ron]

How much are they? i'd personally go for the pro race 1.2
They come in white too and are pretty light. 16's too...

 

[luk3matth3ws]

I have White 17"s and they are awful don't do it

 

[chriscummins7]

yeh sack 17's off... look too big. Go for 16's

 

[Scott™]

As above lol. But if you HAVE to get them then they are nice

 

[Jay.S]

they look good don't go for 17's as stated ruins the handling aswell.

 

[C2kev]

I have have 17's now, they are big but i dont want to have to buy another set of tyres.

and they are £350 delivered, is that a good price? i thought it was

Do they do a Clio fitment as the pictured ones are 5 stud?

I'll be the first to disagree. I think they look a bit chavvy.
Im guessing from your user name you used to have a C2 GT (just a guess - white wheels)
I think the white multispokes will make it took like a pram tbh..
Think the flame red looks better with graphite/anthracite coloured wheels myself.

My opinion -

Wheels should be gloss black or gloss dark grey (or possibly white, but only on a white car.) White on any other colour or any other colour of wheel should be saved for a track car.

17's? - you've bought a car that (although let down by build quality, interior, materials, etc that aren't up there with the best from other marques) was/is renowned as being one of the best handling hot hatches.......and then slap a set of 17's on it? I really wouldn't.

It's nice to have something a bit different, but I've always prefered changes that are subtle, that make you think it left the factory that way, or should have done.

Also won't the brakes look puny behind those rims.

Sorry, but I think they'd look chavvy. I'd sell the tyres and get some 16's in gloss dark grey.......

.......but your choice

 

[gregor182]

why dont you just sell the 17" tyres and then buy 16"? apart from anything it may work out that you loose a little money selling the 17" but surely if you were to buy tyres in the future they would cost more?

 

[leeds_182]

17s on a Clio is a bit too much for me and IMO you will regret getting whie wheels (I know i did)!

 

[Danny133]

nothing wrong with 17's

The Twingo 133 with cup chassis comes with 17'' wheels.

Standard Twingo is 16 inch .. the cup pack adds 17s so they must be good for something
