My Silver Octavia with new 18"s

v8rick · 22-04-2008, 23:32

Had the Skoda for a while, and was waiting for the tyres to get worn out before buying wheels and tyres.

The day came on Saturday and i drove to London to get these fitted at Elite Wheel and Tyre.

Zito 18" (8 wide) with 225/40x18 tyres, nice!!

.... lowering next, silver windows this week, oh yes, and red brake calipers after the overhaul.

Look nice but have you got a slightly more side on pic?

skinnyman · 23-04-2008, 10:42

Nice looking car that. I still think silver is a great colour on the Octavia.

DJM123 · 23-04-2008, 13:00

Looks nice. How much you going to lower it? I would skip the windows and just colour code door handles and either remove side rub strips or colour code them. Hope all goes well.

ur car looks to have a longer back end to mine? is it the saloon or hatch?

might jus be the lack of spoiler

That might have to be next on the list i think,,, the back end looks a bit bare,,, but then i wonder if i might go for the euro look and smooth it all out instead,,,,,,, no door handles, boot handles/recceses etc,, what do you all think?
