Mine were for a Skoda Octavia.  Others models to look out for that run 16" steelies are:

Mk2 Leon
MK6 Golf
MK2 Fabia
MK2 Octavia

Want to get mine painted at some point

As far as I know the MK2 Fabia uses 5x100 not 5x112 bold pattern.

Thanks Rex  :happy2:

I know some Mk2 Fabia's came with 16" Steels but i thought they were the same set up as MK2 Leon - oops

I stand corrected  :notworthy:

Put my OZ's back on now the weathers picked.  Plan to get my CH's refurbed and some new rubber put on.

Must admit, im in two minds now as to which wheels i prefer, now its had a drop i think the OZ's really suit it  :smiley:







Another plus to the OZ's is you dont see many golfs running them!  What do you guys reckon?!  :happy2:

Wondered where you had been hiding mate. As for the wheels personally I think the CH's look better.

Just been a bit busy lately and not a lot of time for the car, I'm getting itchy again though and need to do some more bits soon!!!  :smiley:

Yeah, still can't decide. The CH's do have a better stance. Decisions decisions! Still keeping an eye out for a set of charlestons too!

What sort of bits you thinking?

I've just had a look on ebay as i saw a set of Charlestons on there the other day. Couldn't find them though.

....Only you can decide which you prefer but I particularly like OZ wheels because most are lighter weight and give more driving feedback. I ride on OZ Alleggerita's.

Both your wheels suit your car in my opinion.  :happy2:

Wish list is: EGR delete, Remap & Milltek Back Box and Decat (But need to source a votex rear spoiler with the exhaust cut out - Mega rare!!!)

To be done in the very near future - Wheel Refurb, Full wheel alignment, tyres & a machine polish!

Cheers Robin. I'll get the CH's refurbed and back on and go from there.  Like you say, i just love how light the OZ's are.  Nightmare to clean though!
