Rough German/Euro alloy wheel guide

Euro Style / German alloy wheel guide

Smooth cleaned cars with small wide wheels and very low suspension ....less is more in this game. It's very much like the UK scene some cars are OTT, others are perfect

Specs

Most german style wheels fit a clio because they have a 4x100 PCD..... the main thing to look out for is the centre bore as Renault use a 60.1 which is bigger than the german standard of VW, BMW and Vauxhall which is 57.1.

To get around this

1. Look for wheels with spigot rings so you can change them to some Renault sized centre bore spigot rings

2. Have the centre bore machined out from 57.1 - 60.1

3. See if they can make the wheels with a 60.1 centre bore brand new

Offset will determine how much the wheel sticks out from the hub and arch

e.g

ET01 the wheel will no doubt stick out from the arch.
ET50 the wheel will sit very much in the arch
