New Owner Octavia 1.9TDI

Featured Replies

Hi All,

Just purchased new Octavia 1.9 Tdi. Ambiente

Delivery February 2008.

Coming with 15 inch Alloys.

Because of Deal upgrade to 16 inch alloys will cost about £500.

Are they worth it.?

Looking forward to the "Drive"

Will probably fill up the the wheel arches better. 15" could look a bit small and lost but really up to what you think it looks like and whether it's worth the extra £500.

Welcome to the site as well :thumbup:

Welcome to the forum my tyres were included in the upgrade 205/55R16 look ok to me

welcome to briskoda

Hiya. I've driven both an Ambiante, and my present Elegance, so have a comparison between 15s and 16s on the road.

If you have a lot of jiggly road imperfections, the 15s smooth them out better. but the 16s offer more grip for high g cornering, and look better.
