Fabia: The Alloys Thread

Work in progress - the sticky turned into guide!

http://www.briskoda.net/forums/t3872...s-archive.html

Right then - with more and more people changing the wheels on their Fabias, thought it would be a good idea to have a quick reference guide, so people can not only see how different alloys look, but also confirm fitments, sizes etc.

So - I'll do my best to keep an eye out and keep this guide up to date, but please PM me if you think there is anything that is wrong or I have missed! Also, if you have pics of a car of a different colour, or on a different suspension set up, it would nice to have your pics too.

I have tried to incude the best "side on" view pics that I can find (but will include arty ones if no others are available, and have tried to credit the car owner where possible. I have also tried to include how they look lowered, and on different coloured cars where pics are available too.

DISCLAIMER - This thread is to be taken as a guide only, and the accuracy of the information cannot be guaranteed.
