keep them on!!!

looks bad as fuckkk, keep em :)

Looks hard, nice work!

where did you get the red tape from ?

i miss my old wheels..:(

stop posting pics....haha

sorry max, i love em tho so gotta keep pimping!!

no chance can they stay on the clio, won't fit over my front brakes for a start,lol and wont give enough grip to lay the 270 mad french ponies down

At the risk of sounding cliche. Could you not get some bigger steels and get them banded? Looks mint on those hoops!

i could but i prefer the clio to be fast road/track inspired rather than euro fella, as said i just stuck that one wheel on for a laugh really, didnt expect such a positive response!lol

plus i dread to think how you'd set about stretching an r888 tyre onto a phat ass 15" x 9j or so banded steelie, them things are stiff as hell on the side walls, takes stupid pressures to get them to pop onto 7j rims like mine in 195/50 flavour as it is!

plus 13" mattigs on a clio's been done before, mate winston had them on his old rsibrid clio few years back

not to mention ronals on a hybrid and bbs on a williams

no way am ditching my shiny 4 pots just to fit 13's am afraid

When alll else fails....

COMPOMOTIVE MOs!

just had another look at these pics and damn that clios tidy! I'm not use to seeing them with arches on the back there usually just crumble :p

lol, yeah they suffer bad on the rear normally, but this one was pretty clean when i bought it and its recently had a full respray including the rear arches sorted completely, so it should...touch wood....be mint for a few years to come

Just use an axle stand next time and save all this commotion. :p

on that slope? are you mad sketchy enough using the jack!

Move it off the slope.

get some 14'' mattigs.

try again, would need at least 15's get over the 4 pots

moving off the slope was more hassle than swapping rims

anyway i like to kick up a fuss
