Hey All,

Looking to get another set of wheels for the Trophy and surprised at the range of offset's used for the Clio, using this site for reference: http://www.alloyguide.com/Renault.php

it looks like any offset from 35 - 38, but the standard Trophy rims being 45 does that mean we can use any offset from 35 - 45?

And how come the Trophy uses 45? Is it something to do with the Sachs suspension set-up creating a wider track and the 45 offset bringing the wheels back in?

Cheers for the help...

not the suspension but the wheel hubs, they're upgraded (as is the 182 cup).

if possible try to stick within a couple of degrees otherwise you may experience rubbing and also put more strain on the hubs.

I've run ET38 on the car but the tyres were 195's not 205's and they were ok but it didn't feel the same.
