197 Clio Cup Alloy PCD

[MarkTeamF1]

Morning chaps!

As the title suggests, I'm trying to shop for wheels at the minute, and from what my research suggests, the wheels below are: 5x108, 17x7.5j, ET53 (I'm running 15mm spacers too)


Can someone clarify what pcd these are, so I can get more of definitive answer on new wheels.

Cheers!

PCD is 108x5 mate.

PCD is 108x5 mate.

I think I've confused myself slightly haha! Is the width 7.5j and the offset ET53?

 

[Big Ben]

Width 7.5j
Offset is 53mm

Super! Cheers Ben!

Standard offset is et68

Standard offset is et68

This makes things a little difficult haha... I'm no good at working out offsets. I'm looking at ET53 Team Dynamic Pro 1.2's, I have 15mm spacers on... will they still fit?

Mark, seeing as you're looking at getting new wheels, my advice would be to get some that fit properly without the need for spacers.

Given the unusual fitment on these cars you'll soon realise there really aren't many options.

Good luck with the search.

They will fit as they're effectively ET38 with the spacers but may rub if you've lowered the car. The lower the ET, the further they stick out of the arches.

Thank you! It has played on my mind that it's causing undue stress on my bearings. Hence the reason for my question haha!

This makes a lot of sense, thank you for clearing this up!

With 7.5" wheels the most you can go without spacers is around et45, something like Autec Wizards. With 8" wheels you should look at low 50's, something like Oz Ultraleggeras.

@Sean197 good post mate

There really isn't much more else to choose from. What about Turini? I always think they look amazing but I've a feeling they're either not available in a close enough fitment or something daft like they are but only in white... Like the Ultraleggera!

You can get turinis but the 17" only come in R3 spec which is 7x17 unfortunately.

@Sean197 taa mate. I knew it was something daft, otherwise I'm sure we'd see a lot more of them because they look great.

Made to order too right? That's a good option. Any pics mate?

Oh... I didn't know that :/ on demon tweeks you can edit size from drop down menu to ET 37 on 17x7.5j I think with a bore of 70mm. They definitely won't fit?

Cheers.

Mine is on Braids, great wheels and made to your specs.

Yep, and very good it looks too.
