vRS 18" Alloys & Mudflaps

Paul_M · 21-07-2008, 20:13

I know the standard Octavia mudflaps will fit the vRS (with a bit of modification), but does anyone have them fitted with the 18" zenith alloys? Want to make sure there not going to rub before going to getting a complate set.

It won't make any difference - the rolling radius of the wheel (alloy plus tyre) is the same, i.e the 17" alloys have a tyre with a higher side wall.

The answer to your question is 'yes', Chrs Ellis has them fitted to his vRS

I've got them on mine. A heat gun "eased" them into the correct shape!
