And those wheels are very mk1 Fabia vRS.. but all modern.. and it got we wondering what the next vRS's wheels would look like.. and that, hey.. they'll fit won't they! lol!
Would be awesome if they were like the above!
Mkii vRS on way, what wheels will it have?
And how long till they're on a mki vRS!

I just don't like any alloys that have a split spoke design. :thumbdown: Nearly as bad as the things they are putting on Mondeo Titanium.

They look good on that car, and probably on a Roomster too, but I'm not sure they'd suit a vRS

Bit too Focus ST for me - and yes, those splits would be a pain to clean! They do look good on the example above though.

To get them to fit they'd need to be using convertor/spacers as the Mk I is 100PCD and the Mk II is 112PCD.
And someone will do it, but a vRS has to be built first....

The Mk2 is 5x100. Same as the Mk1

Is that defiantly the case? I've heard several times that it's 100x5 & 112x5. I personally believe that like the Roomster it's 100x5 as it's based on the original Fabia. Leon's had Roomster Scout wheels on his combi at one point to see how they 'd look.
That's why I reckon any new vRS that came out would have wheels that at least bolt onto the original?
Interesting response to the picture though, I really like them and think they'd look great, will have to sort my self out a photoshop later and post back.

It will have TSW Venoms, or 3-spokes.

It's having the 5.2 V10 from the R8 installed on it's roof to ensure it retains it's internal space. The under-bonnet space can accommodate 2 small babies, with ISO-fix points.

Confirmed. Was what was there when I was in the factory, and anyone who says otherwise wasn't there. And is a liar. With pants on fire.

You've actually been funding the vRS mk2 development scheme haven't you?
No, if that were the case the Mk2 would have been out before the Mk1 given the amount of capitol generated by the MILLIONS of Mk2 VRS rumours. I have been funding something much more ambitious...

The choice of engine has been discussed in the Fabia II section too many times. :dull: It will have a 150PS (it may even be 170 PS) 1.4 TSI with a 7 speed DSG, then possibly in the future a 2.0 TDI CR 140 (as per the Ibiza FR....).
As for wheels, then I'm sure I read there may be a choice of colours, silver, white, black and possibly grey. I may be thinking of another Skoda model though.
