Hello, I didn't want alloy wheels on my skoda fabia 1.6td when i purchased it new in 2010, i choose instead to have steel wheels and the dealer put on 14in steel. i now would like to know do they contribute to a lower mpg. The current tyres are over 2 years old and have done 20000k. Any advice to help me make a decision? Thank you.

Investigating swapping alloy wheels on2009 1.4tdi Fabia as the tyres we are recommended are so readily damaged
Not as easy as it should be to get clarification on alternatives eg R14 or 15,
what to take into account etc ???

doesn't seem to show sizes for '08 fabia estate 1.9tdi.

I'm in the UK.
My 2011 Fabia 1.2petrol has tyre info sticker (Skoda) :
185/60/15
195/55/15
205/45/16
205/40/17
185/60/15
-so those larger sizes don't seem to feature on your listings ??

My Fabian reaction has no spare wheel can anybody tell me what size I need to buy

I have a 2012 1.2TSi Monte Carlo with 205x40x17 OEM alloy wheels.

Can I replace these with 195x55x15 alloy wheels?

Can I fit 16" vRS alloys to my 1.2 Fabia HTP Estate, the website seems to suggest this is possible but the text is not in bold..? Is there a downside to fitting these - I guess it might raise the ride height a fraction..? I guess I'd also need a fifth wheel as a spare..? D

I want to change the tyre of my fabia 1.4 Ambient model. Current tyre size is 185/60, 14R. Is it advisable to change the tyre with other size to 175/70, R14 and if changed it will be any problem to my car.

Hi just a little question as my daughter has recently purchased a skoda fabia 2003 model can anyone tell me if the alloy wheels size 165/70 14 are standard

I have 61 plate Skoda Fabia Monte Carlo Edition car - current tyre size are 205/40/17's on the for but 205/40/17 XL's on the back. I am locking to replace the front 2 tyres. Am l best getting XL's for the front so they are all the same or stick with what they are already.
Thanks

I have a 2006 Fabia 1.2 12v with worn 165/70R14 tyres on 5Jx14 wheels. Can I safely replace them with 185/60R14 tyres on 6Jx14 wheels? I ask because I have access to a set of these off another Fabia which has new tyres.

Hi...I own a SL14 Skoda Fabia Monte Carlo, it has 17inch Black Alloy wheels on it at present which don't fit my purpose, I would like to put steel wheels on it to allow for a bigger tyre size as I drive a lot on one track roads....could you tell me if the current spare 15inch that is in the boot is the correct dimensions that could be used as permanent fixture as I am looking to replace all four wheels with Steel wheels....looking for advice on this please?

Hi i own a 64 fabia black edition with 205/40/17 tyres with no spare. What steel wheel size and
tyre ally can I use as a spare?

I have a 2008 Skoda Fabia with 195/55/R15 tyres fitted on steel rims and want to upgrade to alloys. What alloy wheels from other car makes are interchangeable ?

I've just had slightly used 195/65/R15 tyres put on my 2009 Fabia estate TDi 1.4 3 pot instead of 195/55/R15 which were on from new. Immediately on driving off, the accellerator kept sticking on, giving no engine braking.

Nobody knows why, and the garage (and Skoda) say there's no problem fitting this size on the front axle, but it can't be a coincidence. Braking reduces the revs and occasionally the revs slowly reduce.

Thanks, anyone?

Thank you, John, for your advice, and I'm getting a strong impression this is the problem causing my drastic change in accelerator habit.

Strange that even Skoda don't seem to offer any advice except to have an expensive diagnostic check. Other (garage) advice is to put the 195/65/15 on the rear wheels to 'balance'
things and (preferred), to switch my original 55s on the back with the 65s, or simply get a new set of 55s and abandon the 65s.

Fair options, but why doesn't any supposedly informed and trained motor mechanics know or even suggest ?

Thanks again,

Mike
