18x8s on a Vrs?

Featured Replies

Has anyone put 18x8 wheels on their fab? With what drop?

18s look poo. Don't bother! The car will look like a roller skate

mines on 17" 10" rears 9" fronts and a massive drop and i still think theres plenty of room for bigger

Check out the Fabia alloy archive. I'm sure there's a few pics of 18s which will put you off

Looks ****e, will rub and give you crap turn in.

18s fit depends on offset and tyre size, they look a tad big but low on coilys look well, shouldnt catch too much with the right tyres

Look terrible and drive is horrendous! I rocked 18's for 3 days then sold them on

I think if you do the arches properly and fit the correct wheels tyres off sets and camber etc they will look ok depending on the style of wheels you go for ones with a dish and inner spokes like mine look smaller hence deceive the eye buy rs8 style etc look big at any angle all about choice mate.

And it's your car buddy you choose ;)

I rocked 18" Leon Cupra r wheels for a fair while, there only 7.5 x 18 though, but they fit fine no rubbing and a good drop down on kw v1's too

While I wouldnt say 18s dont look good, I think they take a bit more to pull off than sticking 17s on. The only two I`v seen look decent is Trevors (pictured above) and the red one with ultraleggeras on. Both manage to pull them off quite well. Most others I`v seen looks fairly hideous.

I was thinking landrover mondails on adapters but will have to work out off sets

I think they'd be pretty heavy and make the brakes look tiny! :p

You can't really see the brakes through them( I am running grooved & drilled octy Vrs ) and they weigh 12 kg - 19in bbs lm come in at 12 kg
