Had these replicas late last year but never got round to putting them on here till now

Had probs with MS paint when downsizing the photos thats why one is much bigger than the other lol

Nice wheels

is screaming out to be lowered though

MudPuppy · 08-05-2008, 22:05

Loving the new wheels, but as said I think it needs to be lowered a touch.

Good choice, though!

Would be interested to see it lowered and without those rear lights (not to my taste).

isinglass · 09-05-2008, 00:14

look like cotton reels don't they?

Robshaw · 09-05-2008, 00:15

I prefer the R32 Rims - However that is v.different.

Lower!!!

Oh damn!

I seriously want these rims on my Furby, but after finding out that the original Mk5 rims won't fit on (Different PCD or something) My goal was crushed

Please lol, tell me where you got these from and for how much? I'm dying for some on mine to complete my look, well after lowering it first lol

Also, how are they from the originals? Do they look identical? How big are they? 17's?

Thanks for answering!

No one know?

Get a pcd spacer/converter.

Johnny50 · 09-05-2008, 10:02

Simple google search find them.

Or to save you the trouble. Although you would need to check what PCD they are as it doesnt say.

The Polo Gti comes with 16" version of the Golf Gti Monza alloys so they should bolt straight onto a Fabia as it has the same PCD (i'd double check first though.)

mluton · 09-05-2008, 10:10

they look tidy mate

Yeah you're right, but 16's would be too small I reckon, I would love them in 17's as the 18's are too big arent' they? Would there not be rubbing with the 18's?

Also for the guy that said use spacers etc. is that not dangerous? I have no idea just asking whether it would be safe

Cheers for the Links Johnny, for some reason the eBay one doesn't work

And the other link only has them in 15" or 18's, I'd prefer 17's for the least amount of trouble

I know, i'm a PITA

Johnny50 · 09-05-2008, 10:26

Spacers are fine.
I'm running 20mm spacers on the back of mine, and if you wanted to fit 5x112 wheels on, you wouldn't really have a choice.

17''s would look just right i think.

So, if I got some spacers, would the Original Golf GTi Mk5 Alloys fit on my Furby?

They look a lot better than I thought they would

Really not keen on the lights though
