Pictures of modded Octavias please

Aaquil · 26-01-2004, 13:32

Hello everyone,

I was wondering if all you guys and girls who have their Octavia's modded (mainly aftermarket alloys 17" and 18" and suspension) could post some pictures so I could see what they look like and have an idea of what alloys would suit such a car (I am interested in function as well, I know that Compomotive alloys are good as well as OZ Superleggerras in terms of weight etc.) but I also want them to look good. If you could add they mods you have and the performance figures as well that would be great (I don't ask for much do I!!!)

Thank

Aaquil (To be an Octavia owner one day).

Post your e-mail address & I will e-mail them to you, I have absolutely no idea how to post pics

**robmawer** · 26-01-2004, 13:40

This is mine on 18" alloys, with 245/something or other P-Zeroes on them.
Performance figures...er...60 comes up in about 10 seconds, and I am reliably informed it can do 121mph...

Come on guys and girls shows me your cars (Octavias please). I want to see what they look like with alloys fitted...to be honest I'd like to see some whatever you have fitted to them!!!

Stuart have you sent you pictures...I don't know because I can't get into my Hotmail e-mail account!!!

Thanks

Aaquil.

Aaquil have you looked at Manny's site? http://www.octaviars.com - specifically the gallery pages - lots of pics there.

JayTee · 28-01-2004, 08:25

Aaquil,
Link below is to pictures of my car on Mannys site.
note: shows Wolfrace alloys, but since changed to vRS type!

Have a look in the gallery section on MY website rather than the briskoda gallery. www.octaviars.com

Look at the gallery section, then octy RS, then check the silver section. There are some in there, 2 spring to mind and they are Lloyds and ****'s. Also Checkout Jacco's in the Black Gallery. Some of the pics are lower quality than when the gallery was created, I do have the original images if you want clearer ones.

**TaviaRS** · 28-01-2004, 08:47

Huge piccie alert!

18" RS6 alloys, KW V3 (on soft settings and only slightly lower ride height than standard)

Stuart_J · 28-01-2004, 08:48

Aaquil Tried to e-mail you with about 4 pics & it was returned with the message below, sent it again with one pic & it hasnt come back so I guess its lurking somewhere in your hot mail account, looks like it might need emptying

Thank you all for all the good links etc. I like the Black Octavia with the OZ alloys, the Silver one with the BBS alloys is nice as well (All the cars are nice but those especially).

I don't suppose there are any modded with alloys and lowered 1.8T 4X4 Estates?

Thanks

Aaquil.

Aaquil · 28-01-2004, 09:12

Stuart,

I know I'll have to get all the trash out of my E-mail account. I'll let u know when its a bit less full.

Thank you for giving it a go I really appreciate it.

Aaquil.

Aaquil · 28-01-2004, 09:16

TaviaRS,

That is a TOP looking Octavia the ride height is really sorted and the alloys really suit the car. RS6 from where? From the Audi RS6?...was that a stupid question? If so is it the right fitment etc. for the Octavia...is that a stupid question as well?!!!

Put some more pics on I'll have to show the wife those.

Thanks

Aaquil.

Stuart_J · 28-01-2004, 09:19

Aaquil

re Modded Estates PM Colind he lowered his Estate & changed the wheels when he had it & I know he has some piccies as he posted them before

stuart

**TaviaRS** · 28-01-2004, 09:25

Aaquil,

Yep, from the Audi RS6

Borrowed from Ffelan, complete with trashed tyres (well, they were by the time I finished with them

)

Have a look through the events section, northern, and look for the Anglesey threads. They are linked form there.

So what are you doing here then? Go to it!

Aaquil · 28-01-2004, 09:51

Jon,

I would seriously consider putting them on my Octavia (If I ever get round to getting one!!!). Is the fitment etc. correct for the Octavia? What tyres do you have on them?

Thanks

Aaquil

redbaron · 28-01-2004, 09:52

they are 8x18 et 35 with 225/40-18s although i run them with 255/35 on the rear...

they are octy/golf fitment.

Aaquil · 28-01-2004, 09:57

Thanks ffelan,

How much did they cost you and how did you get them? What brand of tyres?
What mods on your car then? Twenty question eh?

Thanks, much appreciated for all the help all of you!!!!

Aaquil.
