Hi,

I am looking to get some 17" a8 replicas for my Fabia vRS with a 25 mm drop. When I called the wheel supplier they were not sure if they would clear the brake calipers. I have the 312mm set up so does anyone have these fitted or know if they will be ok?

I haver a photoshop pic of them on the car and it looks really nice but this now has me worried!! :eek:

Any feedback/help would be very much appreciated.

All the best

Even the 16" wheels will clear them.

So even though the spokes are a flat design, they should be ok??

Big heavy wheels :thumbdwn:

They look good, but they will slow you down and drink your juice.

I have had 18" ones on mine, and they are for sale, cheap as they need a refurb. PM if interested.

Well Shifty runs them and a massive christmas decoration on his roof so the wheels cant slow you down too much;)

I really am surprised you've not been stopped by the coppers with that on your roof....... If it was me i'd have been pulled before i got off the end of my road!!! And i bet it's a bitch driving through thunder storms!!! :D

The wheels look spot on though.

Cheers

Dave.
