How wide wheels can you get on the Fab VRS?

Featured Replies

Loads of people on here running dif stuff and was just wondering what can be done WITHOUT any arch rolling/problems/issues etc etc etc

What offset are Fabs normally?

I wouldn't recommend alloys wider than 8J. I have 7.5J (VW oem) with 15mm spacers all round and they sit far enough out for me. Offset for furby alloys range from 35 to 45 I think. Stock vRS fabia alloys are ET35 I think.

My Compomotive TH's are 8J wide, IIRC they are ET25 so (just) sit level with the arch but thats with 205/45/16's giving a subtle stretch. I'm desperate to lower mine so the wheels actually fill the arches as it doesn't look quite right at standard height.

THAT SOUNDS LIKE A CHALLENGE SIR!!!

haha gotta go find some 9J wheels now :D

Im running 8J 18's wheels but there are a few guys on here with 8.5J wheels.

like to see if 9J are possible!

i think stuart_hatch ran or runs 9's on his, although he's got rolled arches.

i'm running 8's but my spacers are too wide causing damage, i think with the right offset 8's will give no issues.

Stock alloys are ET37, I think I read that somewhere on here.
