Hi all,

Thinking of putting better tyres/wheels on the fabia 1.9tdi MK1 estate 04 plate (6y)

I presume the MK1 fabia vrs wheels will fit but are there any other wheels off a later models or other makes of car ?

Fabia mk1 wheels need to be 5 bolt 100 PCD with 57.1 centre bore

 

I think any will fit from 15 to 17 inch (from memory 14 inch also existed, but not on estate).  I think wheels from Polo or Ibiza might also fit

 

Obviously tyre technology has moved on in 17 years, but need at least 82 for load rating.  It appears you are In Northumberland so either get all season or winter tyres.

195/50 R15 82H or 195/45 R16 82H tyres, optional 205/45 R16 82V or 205/40 R17 82V.  might find limited choice in some of these sizes nowadays

185/60R14 on 6Jx14 ET37 rims is a Skoda approved size for the Fabia 1.9TDI 101PS. However, 185/65R14 would also work well and is a Skoda Roomster approved size.

 

Dunlop Sport All-Season 185/65R14 86H

The Dunlop Sport all-season tyre is non-directional, so the spare wheel can be fitted in any position.

 

If your car came with 165/70R14, then you will notice a lot more grip from either 185/60R14 or 185/65R14.
