RS6 alloys on VRS?

robby · 31-10-2005, 19:20

Has anyone fitted RS6 style alloys on a VRS? i've almost decided on these in 17" but just need a pic to make sure they look ok (pref on silver)

cheers

Up to you, both been done and both look good. You could try something else VAG if you wanted to be original.

I had a set of these on my Astra and think they would look awesome on the Fabia, still quite a rare wheel.

Stop being soft.......18" RS6 wheels will look ***ing awsome

18x8 WILL fit the fabia vrs with no modification.

Lummox · 01-11-2005, 18:52

At this price for wheel only (£400) i'd have some of these like a shot

Jimb0 · 01-11-2005, 19:04

the RS6 ones look stunning..

Those R32 wheels look the dogs nadgers, not bad price either, but i'd still go for the RS6's.

chowy · 01-11-2005, 21:39

These are my faves - Sportec Mono 10 but unfortunately, they are too pricey

Lummox · 01-11-2005, 21:43

They are sweet, strong aswell. AmD sell em, but like you say quite pricey.

Sam Tan · 01-11-2005, 21:45

How much are sportec mono. I have never seen or heard of them! But very nice with big gaps in the spokes so nicer to clean LOL

18's are £1100 for wheels only. (8.5 wide though) thats why they seem to stick out a bit on the Fabia above.

Jimb0 · 02-11-2005, 00:03

are the RS6 alloys really only £300 for 4? just looked on ebay and they seem to be going for that..

Lummox · 02-11-2005, 00:11

Usually about £400 for a set without tyres brand new from people like wheel base.

Jimb0 · 02-11-2005, 00:16

Woah thats not bad, how much would a reasonable set of tyres to go with it set you back?

Think ive found my first mod maybe.

Lummox · 02-11-2005, 00:21

About £75 each for Toyo T1-R or S for example. (215/40 17W)

Am i wrong in thinking or is that a tyre for a 17" wheel?

looking on wheelbase and it doens't seem the RS6 wheels are avaliable in anythink smaller than 18".

robby · 02-11-2005, 18:24

Right i've been offered a deal too good to miss - pristine set of S3 alloys but with 225x45x17 tyres, i know the tyres should be 205x40 or 215x40 but will the 225x45s still run without scraping anywhere (standard suspension VRS)?
i need to let him know tonight, i'll have to swap the wheels over onto the car if i agree so can't change the tyres before i fit them
