| Re: offset ? mate, ive found a set of genuine fabia vrs 16" alloys on ebay and he has list them with a ratio of 45 bud if thats anygood, which would explain why the ones from wheelbase i peeked at were 45 and listed for the fab  Skoda Fabia VRS Wheel & Tyre on eBay, also, Wheels with Tyres, Car Wheels, Tyres Trims, Cars, Parts Vehicles (end time 25-May-08 19:50:11 BST)

 heres a handy no for southwest tyres mate 08704285050 they mite not be near you but they are datf huge and would be they guys to ask what fits what, or somewhere like R-tec but i dont av their number on tap  5x100 fitments id say ud b looking for on websites with et45 if what ive been diggin about has found, if they list that then your on a good start , most makes should cover it being the good ol vag fitment, just finalize with a main company b4 part with cash
