Hello I brought some alloys for my skoda Octavia mk1 they are bbs alloys 18 and what size wheel spacers do you think I need I just brought sum 5mm ones for the back ? 

@randyboii92 - Any chance you could actually tell us what size and offset the rims are, and what size tyres you want to run, rather than asking us to guess based on just the wheel diameter?

Orite lmao lol and the size of the tyres are 205/40 18 on the front and on the back 215/40 18 were would I find the offset ? 

The offset will be stamped (aftermarket) or cast into the insides of the wheel usually start ET...

Thanks and I have got et .. 10 ## 11### do this mean anything 

@randyboii92 The full number (N replaces any digits we don't have) will be something like 18xN.N ETNN 5x100 for these wheels, where 18 is the wheel diameter in inches, and the 5x100 is "5 bolts on a 100mm circle". (I know the 5x100 because Octavia 1) The N.N is the wheel width in inches, and the ETNN is the wheel offset in millimeters.

 

Your spiders that you're replacing (presumes standard wheels) will be 17x6.5 ET38 5x100, and on that width and offset there's enough clearance for a 225 width tyre (205 as standard).

Thanks goin to try and get them on my car tomorrow brought sum 5m spaces hopefully the back one will go on tyres to put them on but the just hit the rear calliper sum I brought 4 5m spaces

How does mis-spelling help the minority for whom English is a second language?

tyres are to small (sidewall) to keep original Rolling radius you need 225/40/18's....

 

205/40/18's would be 2.58% and 16mm too small a radius... 

 

I am assuming its a vRS though with OE 205/50/17's.....

 

do you know what your OE tyre size is ?

 

edit: seen your sig, its a vRS.... so ideally 225/40/18....
