The BBS you have in mind are the really old style. I agree they would not suit the fabia at all! The BBS CH IIRC Were even fitted to the special ED30 Golf of late. bbs_ch_black_persp567_05.jpg

And whats the price tag on these, mate? :)

Around £1300 for wheels and tyres, if you get the real deal...

Replicas between £400-£600

is there a down side to buying the replicas?

Many say that quality is lower. More likely to fracture when you hit potholes.

I ran on replicas for a year and a half with no problems, never seen issues myself, but there are some examples if you search for them.

Only other thing to consider, is if you are selling wheels at a later time,

Real Deal BBS will be snapped up at adecent price, Replicas, second hand are not worth much.

I like the rims in the first post. Think they'll look good.

Unlike the original VRS rims they have painted the whole rim, so you won't have the kerbed look from the silver bit poking out because the tyre is too thin.

Sorry, pet hate of mine. If it was a silver ring I could see the point, but it's not, it's just a bit showing from different angles, which is why I'm not a fan of the dark Skoda rims. Looks like they went cheap and only painted the face.

Im not going to say that i disagree :)

i dont want any replicas and the BBS CH's are far to expencive for my budget.....

so the DARE LG2 is the rims i will be going for. Unless someone comes up with a greater rims for the type for car im driving :)

Have a look at cades mate there quite similar

Only problem with that type of wheel is the cleaning :giggle:

or Team Dynamics, they do reasonably lightweight wheels and I don't think they are too expensive.

I can get a hold of those rims for 339 GBP! :D

If i where to buy these, im going for 7.5x17 and not 8.0x18, as they look realy big.

take this for example:

passat-RS6-replica-lg.jpg

The rims on the passat are 17''. they look like 18's right? :D

Will probably get them painted in black if im getting those

What do u think of these wheels, Nice or not nice?

I like the wheels you are looking at, but if your asking about reps, you do realise the wheels in the first post are actually replicas of replicas lol.

Here are the reps:

I can't recall the original manufacturer as the Rotiform's have taken off in success, but I can almost guarantee those Dare wheels are meant as replica Rotiform's, and Rotiform's were already replicas in the first place.

Hard to find a good picture. This is how it would probably look with Dare and slamming.

Just noticed the picture from revolution, that place is just down the road from me.

Nice photoshop, But I still dont think the rotiforms work.

Cant forget some black tire shine to set them off nicely
