Silverfox85 Posted May 16, 2013 Report Share Posted May 16, 2013 Hi guys, I currently drive a vw fox (yes it's silver) I'm looking at getting some alloys, Dezent panik in 17". Within budget and personal preference as i think they will look sweet. 2 things, will they fit? And, anything else you can recommend I do to the car? I've already got things like a stereo and sound set up. Looking at getting rid of the black strips on the sides too. I want to lower it but that's another story . Cheers guys. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koop Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 Lows first, rims next is the best way to go imo. However, 17x7J, yeah they should fit fine. You need them in 5x100 PCD. If there's a choice of centre bore you want 57.1mm but most aftermarket alloys are 73 ish iirc & you'll need spigot rings to adapt to your hubs. Don't forget you have loads of VW/Audi/Seat OEM wheel options in 5x100 which would be a straight fit.S3 Avus for example... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Genuine-Audi-S3-Avus-7-5x17-5x100-vw-audi-fitment-/300904010256 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silverfox85 Posted May 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 I'm praying I get a tax rebate in the next month coz I will be doing both in a heartbeat. Those wheels ain't that nice. I don't really know what I'm looking for fitmant wise I just want some sexy 5 spokes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FoxyBoxing Posted July 26, 2013 Report Share Posted July 26, 2013 Is there a reason you say lower then rims? I'd love to lower but I have family that live on a farm so lowering is not too much of an option... What's the biggest wheels the fox will take?
