Could anyone tell me if i can run my octy rims with 205/50/R17 tyre, without any rubbing issues?

Cheers Marty

Yeah that's fine - it's what I've got on mine...

Sorry, didn't read the section. I have that size and profile on mine and it's fine... but mine is an Octavia so I guess that's different.

D'Oh!

I haven't had any experience in changing the wheels on a Fabia but I'm also looking to change mine at the mo. Most people seem to run 205/40/17 so that the rolling diameter is close to the original wheel and tyre. I can tell you that your speedo will be out by 7.78% though, which is not good.

Do 40's put the speedo out and if so (maybe a dumb question) does it + or - the reading?

Just to let you know they don't fit, rub on full lock on the front, and one catches the liner on rear. My proxies are now ordered

Head unit, Glove Box Light, Map Light -New Owner Questions

SelfEvolution · 1 minute ago1 min

Hello people, I got a 2011, VRS a few days ago. Primarily for a long trip. Seems decent so far, but I want to add power, music and just get things working. I have a few issues/questions. Hoping these are common and easy for experienced here, I have been trawling forum, maybe I have missed some stuff. The head unit did not display. The touch screen worked but there was no display. I tried removing fuse. No luck. (Bolero, Delphi) I purchased a head unit from breaker (Bolero, blaupunkt), assum

Full Matrix Led headlights on motorway

Rafal78 · 23 January, 20242 yr

Ok, Matrix Leds are fantastic. When driving on A or B class roads they working perfect, illuminates both sides of the road and cuts out cars at the front or oncoming traffic. I've never been flashed. When I tried to use them on motorway it's a different story. Right headlamp is illuminating as expected but left one doesn't illuminate side of the road but only gives a lot of light far at the front of the car.. I recently followed Audi Q7 with matrix leds and his headlights gave massiv

How do I save the settings?

keelbolt · 20 minutes ago20 min

Kodiaq 2026 PHEV I set the lane control to 'Off', set the alert control to 'off', and various other settings that I want. But when I next switch the car on, all my settings are lost and I have to re-set them. This is a complete pain in the ass. How do I save the settings so that they stay set?

VW Caddy mk2 (Felicia) Pick-Up 1.8T

Bete Noir · 12 November, 20178 yr

Having reluctantly decided that my Felicia pick-up was too tired to be a good base for my plans, I spent months looking for another. Although I have owned VAG cars for many years, I had not previously owned a VW, but the pick-up that I found was a Caddy, so I hope you will tolerate a thread about a VW on a Skoda site. When I bought it, it looked like this (bear with me, it gets better!). It is a 1.9D, which has previously had a substantial amount of effort put into sorting the bod

Superb estate rear door lock

MrSVM1 · 3 hours ago3 hr

I am having problems with the rear offside door lock on our 2018 Super 2.0L SE Technology diesel estate. The drivers door switch panel includes the two child lock buttons. When locking the car the rear offside door remains unlocked, therefore we have to keep it locked via the small turn screw on the edge of the door. Having looked into new lock prices, I decided to try a second hand one from a 'reputable' supplier, only to find that this replacement is doing the same thing. I conclude therefore
