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.

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?
