View Full Version : Can't decide...help

Won a set of Clio Trophy rims off eGay. The big question... Leave them anthracite or powder coat them white?

Ive asked so many people and I still can't decide, I love the anthracite next to the racing blue but also think white would look stunning for the summer too and go really well with the gordini stripes...

Im leaning towards white, if Im spending that much money on wheels/tyres I want something different to what I have now. Id have a really nice set of anthracite spares/winters in my standard cup rims that way too.
If I left them anthracite I know everytime I'd turn the WRC on tv Id think; 'wish I'd done em white.' But then again I don't want the car to look too chavvy, not that white rims are chavvy, but some people think they are...

Thanks to Christopher off ClioSport for pics of his car with both colour rims...

Peoples thoughts please :D

Japman

Saxotim
19th March 2008, 15:05
White, most definitely.

Cal
19th March 2008, 15:05
They're not cheap our Gav... which is why I was thinking current rims anthracite and turini's white. Then I could swap when I feel like it...

Looks like white is most peoples favourite!!!

Ibiza_Rik
19th March 2008, 15:06

white and a decent set of tyres for track attacking :P

Uzi
19th March 2008, 15:10
are these the speedline turini's? and definetly white although havent seen many 182's with the anthracite colour on them

Quick
19th March 2008, 15:10
White = lots of cleaning!

Cal
19th March 2008, 15:11
Looking like white is running away with it... I always preffered the white but was curious if people thought I was 'killing' the car by putting different colour rims on when the standard ones are nice as they are.

laura_g
19th March 2008, 15:12
white looks lovely

Cal
19th March 2008, 15:13
are these the speedline turini's? and definetly white although havent seen many 182's with the anthracite colour on themYep, SpeedlineTurini's... as standard on the 172 Cups and Trophy's... although the 182 and Trophy has a wider wheelbase so I couldn't just buy 172 rims... Long story.

Ryan: I'll only ever put Michelin Exalto's on it as they were designed for the car! :y:

David
19th March 2008, 15:14
White, and invest in a good wheel sealent... ;)

Well you could have out 172 turni's on but cos the car is on the floor the PCD of the 172 wheels would make them catch on the arches

Exalto's are the best for those cars, maybe go for the lower profile ones Cal as they are lower then the current ones on the cup wheels

Japman
19th March 2008, 15:22
agree with leeroy

leeroybrown
19th March 2008, 15:23
White does look good but no way does it beat anthracite.

Look at the trohpy and sure white would go with the red, but anthracite so works so much better

Cal
19th March 2008, 15:24
I have anthracite rims.... Thats my argument.
This way I'll have a set in each colour...

welsh_rich
19th March 2008, 15:47

Anthracite all the way imo

Wtf Gav? We know your car is faster... :P
I have standard anthracite rims which I like, I wanted something completely different for the summer. Couldn't justify spending £850 on wheels that will look more or less the same in anthracite. White is way more eye catching, if I don't like it, I can put my standards back on. Simple

Shit pic but the only one I have as my data cable is broke, doesn't do it justice. Im really happy with them and Im glad I painted the badges yellow, it really suits it but you can't really tell from the pic. Had nothing but positive comments from people who have seen it, really turns heads.

I'll get some better pics up eventually... but thanks for everyones opinions in this thread :y:

Im been honest.

You know i dont like 182 wheels or the tints.

Hes removed both things i dont like. Hence why its so much better.

leeroybrown
14th April 2008, 12:09
Each to there own

But in my defence.... at the time i owned the car.. no one... i shall repeat no one had the same spec on a 182 cup as mine.....which to me is different..

Where as now the way the car looks ...a few people have it already like that.... still looks very good though

Japman
14th April 2008, 12:12
