Renault Clio Renaultsport 197 / 200 Mk3 wheel fitment

The 197 and 200 use five-bolt hubs and unusually high factory offsets. Owners commonly retain 17-inch wheels, using lighter designs and lower offsets to bring the wheels further towards the arches.

Popular community setups

Starting points for a build. Read the notes with each setup, especially if your car is lowered or has different brakes.

Front and rear
17 × 7.5 inch, ET45 · 215/45 R17

A well-documented community size. Sits 23 mm further out than the same-width ET68 wheel; check clearance at the chosen ride height.

Wider 17-inch OZ setup

Width and offset guidance

Offset range

Check the exact setup

There is no confirmed range for this car yet. Compare a known wheel with your proposed size and measure both sides.

Common width limit

Measure before ordering

A maximum width has not been confirmed. Tyre shape, ride height and alignment all change the available space.

These figures belong to the setups described here. Combining the widest wheel with either end of the offset range does not guarantee a safe fit. For how ET moves the wheel in and out, read wheel offset explained; for how far the tyre can sit out, see flush, poke and tucked fitment.

Clearance notes

  • Ordinary Mk3 Clio four-bolt wheels and Mk2 Renaultsport wheels do not fit these 5x108 hubs.
  • Torque is omitted: owners cite 130 Nm in the Renaultsport supplement and 140 Nm in other workshop material. The correct Renault document must be matched to the car and fasteners before tightening.
  • The front Brembo calipers need a suitable spoke profile. A matching diameter and bolt pattern alone are insufficient.
  • Cup racer Speedlines are 8 inches wide; the commonly fitted road Speedlines are 7.5 inches wide. Both may be marked ET68.
  • Check full steering lock and suspension travel with the car loaded. Match wheel load rating, tyre load and speed ratings, fastener seats and brake clearance.
