16

No

Fabia vrs is 5x100 bolt pattern

You could get adaptors but the wheels are quite a low offset already

definate ?

You cannot get 5x112 wheels on a 5x100 hub without spacers, however if you were to get the spacers then the wheels should fit fine with standard 205/45/16 tyres.

 

If you want any more information on the difference then have a look at http://www.willtheyfit.com/

 

I placed the info for your car in and this is what it gave me...

Looks like the tyres would still sit the same on the road but have a little more stretch.

Im no expert though so take it with a pinch of salt and have a look at what you can find out.

Adapters. Spacers wont make a blind bit of difference, everything else is sound advice however. 

definate ?

Yes

Adapters. Spacers wont make a blind bit of difference, everything else is sound advice however.

surely adapters are spacers too! ;)

the alloys listed by the op are ET33 to start with, and 7 1/2 inch wide.

I can't see them fitting inside the arches once adapters are added? :)

The thinnest adapters you can get are 15mm. But most start at 18/20mm

if you used 15mm adapters the et would become et18.

Et18 will be ok on the back but will be close on the front unless you used stretched low profile tyres for example 195/40 16.. if you were to run this size tyre then the arch gap will look big unless you seriously lower it.

so unless your going to slam the car + stretch the tyres then NO these wont work. Plus the price of adapters will make the whole thing alot more expensive ;)

A good quality set of adapters are about £230 - £250.  So unless the wheels are pretty rare or unique and worth the extra hassle, I wouldn't bother.

 

As said above ET18 will be tight on the front.

 

P.S. lets not confuse spacers with adapters.  Technically they're 2 different things.  It just happens that adpaters can't be 0mm thick so they always space the wheels slightly.

My rear wheel setup is 17x7.5 after Adapters the ET is 17. My front is ET 20 i could run ET 17 easy if i modify my arch lining.  (running 195/40 tyres)

 

So the answer is yes. You can run that wheels with adapters on your Fabia.

 

Rear is fine.

 

Front you may need to fiddle with the Arch lining.
