oh its for me red fab to

Urgh those in the link aint for me.

Look for some octy spiders, tt rims etc...

Have a search on here, plenty of wheel threads and then see which ones you like

The ad states that they are 5x112 fitment.

Which means they wont fit your Fabia.

You need 5x100.

And also wouldn't be my first choice even if they did fit ! :D

Different though, kinda like the old Volvo T5 wheels.

to be perfectly honest i dont think i like those looking at them on the link but it may be a different story when fitted to the car.

alloy choice is one of the most important things you can ever do to your car, it can make it or break it!

i always found, dont go for wheels because you like the style, go for the wheels because they will suit the car.

but as you know, it is different, havent seen one running those so may just pull it off.

although looking again i really dislike the chrome part, could look majorly tacky...

IMHO they are hideous and naff

Not my taste...

But if you like them... then thats good.

Think you could get some much better looking wheels for the money.

And get ones which actually fit..?

Nooo they are ugly.

As said before Octy Spiders are nice on the Fabia:thumbup:

They have to be the worst alloys I have ever seen except for 13" trispokes. That just my opinion of course, they could have a place on a tricked out Corsa in a Mcdonalds carpark but you don't do that in your Fabia, do you?

Also...

You have a full keyboard in front of you. The "h" key used in the word "what" is between the g and j keys. The "y" and "o" keys are also available. You will need this to spell "you". The shift key also engages capital letters like this "I".

Possibly a hint back to text speak old bean? Maybe it will be used in a McDonalds car park after all...

As for the wheels, as most people on here will say (and me too) it's about expressing yourself and creating a look that you want, if these wheels do it for you then go for it and enjoy the car, for me though, i prefer the OEM look, i'd get some octy spiders or get the VRS wheels refurbed in black... plus at the price on e-bay, the chances are, they're not all that good.

you'll find typing properly is just as fast and a hell of a lot easier for everyone else to read. plus text slang just makes you look like a chavy **** :thumbup:

Im selling some black 17's have a look in the for sale section.. pro race 2's ;)

He He, say what you mean ;)

I bought a similar set of wheels to that for my 02 plate Mondeo (which was a black Zetec). They looked really good on the car, if a little "pimp my ride" - althought the "chrome metal inserts" are actually chromed plastic, bolted on from the back of the wheel. A bit cheap to be honest.

No matter, I sold them on (eventually) to some Polish guy for his Volvo;-)

(won't do THAT again!!)

How on earth did you manage to find them?

- Not only will they not fit on the Fabia.

- They wouldn't look right on a Fabia.

If you go on to eBay again. - Go to the alloy wheel section they have a new section for you to type in your Reg.A list will then appear as to what alloys will fit your car.

I hope this helps. Please do also check out the 'For Sale Section' as many people are constantly selling wheels for great prices.

aye they wouldnt dare say it to your face though

aye they wouldnt dare say it to your face though

Care to try me on that :D

It's called I can say what I like - It's my opinion.

With my Fabia vRS I liked what I had done to it - Other people didn't seem to have the same opinion.

End of the day it's your car. innit.

if you want to go for the Octy Spiders, keep an eye on ebay, the for sale section here or you can also buy them from Skoda dealers, not sure on costs but the standard tyres on the octy are too big for the fabia so would need replacing anyway.

i did want to go for the spiders but its been done so many times and i fancied the idea of porsche wheels, well worth doing but adaptors arent very cheap.

aye they wouldnt dare say it to your face though

Sounds like a challenge :)
