So, I just bought myself an ecobox, being that im a European student, and taxes are insane in my country.

But the question i cant seem to answer myself is, what kind of rims should i get?

>inb4 "dont waste the money on that shit car"

I know a Renault Clio IV isnt a decent car in an American perspective, but I like it, and I want to spend a little money on rims.

pic related, its the actual car

>>14735434
those are nice! but stock, meaning that here in Denmark those will cost me 2400$ from the dealer. Isnt that a bit too much?

Do it
>>
>>14735439
I'm pretty sure that a local Renault related message board has a set of them on sale second hand. Somebody might be replacing them with some aftermarket wheels.

>>14735441
should i go for the tyre stretch aswell?

>>14735445

Fuck no.

>be european

>"where are you going anon? That's another version, your car did not come with those tyres, they're unsafe for it. You need the manufacturer to sign an approval for them"

Fucking kill me
>>
>>14735471
wow.. i wont do it then.
>>
>>14735424
Don't you have to get them homologated?
The Renaultsport ones are pretty cool but they're 5 lug.

>>14735471
Portugal, right?
>>
>>14735497
yea, i've been drooling over those, and wondered if I should get a spacer.

Af alle biler du kunne kobe. Så kobte du en Clio.
>>
>>14735506
Yeah, a lug adapter.

>>14735510
Not concept, they're Megane RS wheels.
I have no idea what kind of bureaucracy you'd have to go through to put some RS wheels on it, though.
Especially if you're using lug adapters (and if you want to keep it legal.)

>>14735516
I got a really good offer on the biggest equipment package through a business associate, so even if I sell it again I will be making a small profit.

I know its not the best car in the world, but im contempt.

>>14735517
true, it will be a hassle, fortunately one of my friends is a mechanic so it should be possible.
Those looks so nice.
>>
>>14735500

O que achas?
>>
>>14735528
Go for it then.

I'm thinking of putting some 17''s on my Punto, too.
But it's fucking ridiculous here in Portugal, I'd have to go through the proper channels and pay about 60 euroshekels to have it legal plus about 1300€ for a set of oem wheels and probably about more 400€ for tyres.

>>14735534
Pois. Suponho que sejas o tipo que tem o Civic?
>>
>>14735542

Nope. I'm the one that recently bought the red Corsa B. Since I saw it's in such good condition, I think it's worth investing into.

Get a set of the OEM black steelies like pic related.
>>
>>14735553
for the winter tyres? i mean they are decent looking, but kinda dull?
>>
>>14735471

Got Opel Portugal's response back. Well, if anything, those fucks were so kind to not charge me the 60€ for their "you want bigger tyre? Too bad, here no, fuck you".

Oh well, the search is on. Now to find some decent 165/65 14 tyres that can handle spirited driving. Pretty much almost impossible now I reckon.
