Does anone know whether 16's will fit on a mk1 clio?
What if it was then lowered by 35mm?

yep they will but the fronts will probably rub and the rears might catch the arches.

Soneji's old rt had 16;s but he had tractor profile tyres on them, 55/205's I think they were, they were that big they caught on my 19 but my 19's 17's had loads of room.

like I said it depends on the tyre profile.

Rusty had his dropped about 120mm and he had 16s on.

Sonejis was standard and the 16's caught on everything but with my 17's on there was loads of room.
