The Renault Megane RS is already a pretty cool, but as we have seen time and time again, cool cars can always get cooler after an experienced tuning firm get their hands on it. The Megane RS, in particular, has competitors such as the Golf GTI and Focus RS, making it an ideal vehicle to tune up as a sportier model. Corniche Sports Wheels is the latest tuning firm making an attempt at creating a sportier Megane RS.

The sporty and elegant five-star wheel attracts attention with its multi-part optics, based on suggested screw threads, and its cosmopolitan design language - and holds that attention for some time. The Megane RS is provided with 8.5 x 19 inch ET45 wheels on the front axle and 9.5 x 19 inch ET50 rims on the rear axle. The vehicle also comes in a rich and sporty white paint with a contrasting Higloss-black-polished / Inox Lip version and stainless steel lowered center.

The Renault Megane RS is powered by a new-generation 2-liter 16-valve turbocharged petrol engine which boasts maximum power of 250hp at 5,500rpm and peak torque of 340Nm from 3,000rpm.

Dynamic Duo: Renault Mégane RS with CORNICHE VEGAS

With a four-cylinder turbo engine that puts out a fat 250 hp, the Renault Mégane RS lines up in the sports compact class to teach the Golf GTI and Co. a thing or two about fear. The dynamic French vehicle doesn’t even attempt to conceal its power, instead blatantly flaunting its high-performance ambitions with very visible spoilers, and a brawny diffuser tail.

The design of the French vehicle is rounded out perfectly by the VEGAS light-alloy rims from the collection of rim manufacturer CORNICHE SPORTS WHEELS, at home in Stein am Rhein.

The sporty and elegant five-star wheel attracts attention with its multi-part optics, based on suggested screw threads, and with its cosmopolitan design language - and holds that attention for some time. The 8.5 x 19 inch ET45 wheels on the front axle, and the 9.5 x 19 inch ET50 rims on the rear axle, represent the perfect size combination for the Renault Mégane. The contrast-rich surface finish of the Higloss-black-polished / Inox Lip version, with stainless steel lowered centre, is an outstanding match for the Renault Mégane, which is painted in a sporty white.

The CORNICHE VEGAS wheel is also available in the sizes 8.5 x 20 and 10 x 20 inch.

This is sportier than ever! This French vehicle has a future, what can you say? Judging from its high performance and contrast surface; I am sure it’ll be a hit.

what a lovely set of wheels, I bet this is less heavier than the regular Rims.
