Hi mate,

 

The short answer is that they will fit absolutely fine.  I don’t see what different 1/2” width will make and the offset just means how far the wheel pokes out. 

thanks for you reply matt so I wont need and spacers ect , excuse me but I'm new to all this wheel size jargon

according to skoda technical the wheels wont fit ?????

not sure what to do 

What do you think guys can I fit them 

You can fit them, just go for

it.

 

For example I have a set of MK2 Octavia wheels for winter and MK3 Octavia wheels for summer fitted to my MK2 Superb!

Spacers will be a personal choice, if you’re happy with how they look then fine. If you feel they sit under the arch too much then you can get some spacers.

Morning Matt thanks for you time and help these are the wheels . As long as you think they will fit I will go ahead and get them, it’s just that I no nothing about wheel sizes etc ,and Skoda say 8jx18 44

Skoda sirus alloys part number 3T0071498HHA7

 

Measures 18x7.5j with an offset of ET46. The screen shot below from willtheyfit.com details new prospective wheels vs the 'skoda recommended measurements' in post #1.

 

It is all I'd need for me to know they'll be fine.

 

 

 

In short, the face of your new wheels will sit a little (less than a centimetre) further into the arch than the existing ones, and the inside edge will be less than half a centimetre further away from the suspension strut.

 

Hope this helps 

Go ahead and get them mate. Take some pictures for us once they’re fitted!

picked them up this morning mate thanks for your advice
