Help and advice needed to fit 18"


Redevil

Recommended Posts

I saw a Fabia the other day with 18" wheels on.  It was parked up in Sainsburys so I went over to have a closer look.  I think he must have been on standard suspension as it looked like a kid's toy and was riding way too high.  The same goes for when they are on 17" Spiders for example, but this really did look a bit daft.

 

If the car is lowered on 17s then I think this is the best compromise as the standard 16" wheels do look a tad small.

 

There's an old thread with a couple of examples of how it might look,

18s usually look massive on a mk1 Fabia.

With the PCs adapters it will make it et37 so should fit ok.

Would need 205/35/18 tyres

205 will be stretched, also 205 30 18 would keep the Speedo correct.

35 would throw it out a few MPH.
