| Re: merc wheels on a fabia? You can get adapters, but you will need the correct offset on the wheels to make it work.

| Re: merc wheels on a fabia? Yeah, you could make it work. Just need to end up with an overall offset of 32-27 (that's what I would aim for anyway). All depends on what width adaptors you find; usually 10, 15 or 20mm. So you'd need a Merc wheel with an offset of around 50-55. So the ones you mention won't really work  Steve
