Just purchased Fabia 19TDI and looking to put alloys on, have been told i can go to 16 inch is this correct and any recommendations on wheels that look good on Fabia

Hoping for advice

Welcome Robbst1 !

you can even go to 17" if you want without too much problems.

Ross Clarke has 17-inchered his fabia and lowered it but he (like myself) has a vrs.

Taking two similar shot pics...

Original 16 inchers are like so:

Ross's 17 inchers on lowered suspension come up like so:

Myself and Jason also ran with 17" and lowered. Mine was a petrol and Jason's was the TDi 100bhp. Both ran with no problems at all!

17s are niiiiiice, and work fine with 205/40 tyres.
