Saw GentleBen's post earlier with pics of his 'fleet' and I love the standard alloys on the clio. They just make the car look lush. So I thought "hmm.......they would look sooo coooool on a 19". So I tried it.....and.....er.....I think I was wrong! doh

the best look can be obtained with ph1 alloys without centre caps imo,centre caps make the wheels look like wheel trims

the clio wheels suit the 19 more than the 19 wheels!

They don't suit that blue 5 dr hatch though, mark had them on his red chamade and it looked great.

but they still just look like someone has robbed your caps...besides, anyone who even notices or cares (another 19 owner most likely) will just say "oh your caps are missing!"
