What is the width of the wheel your trying to put on mate

Hi the wheels are 205-40-17s well the tyres. :smokin: cheers Tel

Best thing is to change the wheels to bring them out from the car. Even with 35mm spacers its going to cause problems let alone going for anything bigger

Fk do hubcentric spacers. I belive they do up to 60mm. I think demon tweaks sell fk stuff.

[V6 CREW]

Oh no i hope there is another way :scared: the alloys are being refurbed as we speak!!!

[r5_scotty]

I had a mk2 golf on borbet a,s and I had 55mm fk hubcentric spacers.

You won't get spacers out that far without causing damage in bearings very quickly. Not sure about getting a Williams rear beam on it should make it wider but still going to be stuck getting wheels out that far

i would say to make it look right with that kit on your wheels need to be a minimum of 9" wide but 10's would probably be better if the wheels you have on there at the mo are only 6.5-7.5" wide they will never look right mate and i for sure would not want to run a massive spacer. Time for some new deep dish 10" rims i think mate :D

Would look better on wider wheels with being a dimma kit mate. Some 9'' azevs would look unreal. Just my opinion anyway! :agree:

So how much will those deep dish bad boys going to cost??? :scared:
I totally agree it will look loads better but judt dont have the cash for a new set inc tyres i bet its a big wedge?!?!

Might be worth searching through the alpine GTA alloys as they will have the wide wheels at the back already. Not sure on costs. Think its like 6.5j front and 8.5j rears

take a look on this website mate you may just find something perfect you like a decent set of mint split rims will cost you £1,000+ easy without tyres but you can get copied sets and other brands for a lot less. If you have origional hubs on the 5 then your need something like a 13/14/15 or a 16" rim and i would say 8's or 9's on the front and 10's on the back width, but you will still need 4x100 centres (pcd).

Ok thanks ill take a look. Im a big fan of the clio v6 being a phat motor (and as ive had one see profile) the multi spokes on that in black would be nice. Not sure of width though??? any body know? they might be fatter on the rear end being rear wheel drive too!

They are 5 stud rather than 4 stud unless you want to convert your hubs

Back when i had my dimma, i ran with some 16" 8j image wheels found on ebay with 25mm fk hub centric spacers. Keep your eyes open on ebay, think i pay'd about £250 for wheels.
