Hi Jenshagen, from accross the pond (Sydney Australia to be exact!)

I know this may be awhile back now but I am hoping you may remember what rubber you had on your XXR 527's?

I know the wheels were 17x8.25 5x100 +35, but the Tyre size will help with getting my fitment correct. As yours looked perfect

Also am I right in confirming you had to run spacers at the front? Also how low did you have it? Did you have any trouble with scrubbing?

Apologies for the thread jack. Not many Skoda's around here and looking for all the help I can get

Tyre size is 205/40-17"

Had no truble with scrubbing actually.

How low it was i never measherd but i had about 5 cm more to lower it!

Yes 3mm spacer to get the wheels on at front. Just because of my brakes:/

Wow thanks for your prompt reply!

Were your brakes stock or aftermarket? Just asking because I have a Silver Mk2 Monte Carlo, they come stock with the 15" wheels here. I don't mind the style but they are a little small and I feel a little more appropriate offset may be in order

Thanks for all your help.

Mine came with 17"s

Brakes are stock. Size depends on your engine size

No problem, just happy to help

No, this is the OEM diffuser for Monte Carlo.

Did you have to cut the diffuser to fit the exhaust trim?

Yes, but not that much actually.

Looking good with the red body - those are the smoked version correct? what did you do for the canbus issue or that has been fixed?

I have a bulb fault because the bulbs down in the corner of bouth lamps is not mounted.. Think it looks wierd with them in.. So don't know if canbus is fixed. I can check tho

By the way are those the replacement rims or the ones until you get the new ones?

This once are my winter wheels, it's still winter here and could any day snow here :(

New wheels are ordered!

Was supossed to get bbs Rs but the dealer wasn't serious enough to order them, so i went for 3sdm 0.05

Odd... they don't have 17" but 16" or 18"/19"??? Which one did you go for? lovely design for sure.

I'm glad you didn't go for the BBSs - I think they suit the MKI better than the MKII.

8.5x18 and i went white cut! Think that will really set them off!

I'm probably getting too old but I liked your previous combo with the XXRs more.

Don't get me wrong the wheels are stunning but something doesn't do it for me for now.

I will wait for more pics to make up my mind.

Ones again, BEAUTIFUL.

The tires ? Already lowered ?

The perfect fit, and fast cornering.

Do you think they would fit my F2 VRS (with MC fenderlips) ?

215/35 on 8.5x18
