If one was to put 19" alloys on a 2.0 TDI FR would they fit?

same question for a 2.0 tdi Stylance?

I'm guessing they are both the same so same answer to both :confused:

anyway what size is the offset on LEON MK2's? :think:

i'm keen on tsw splitz or aez excite dark's

?????18's or 19's?????

Simple answer, if you get the right size ones then yes.:lol:

They need to be 5x112 PCD & standard offset is ET54 depending on which wheels you've got but you can get away with up to ET45 (the lower the offset the more the wheel sticks out)

It depends on the width. 7" et 54, 7,5" et 51.

Ive got 8*18 et 50 BBS Challenge and it fits real nice.

Off topic, but can we have some pictures of your cars on the BBS Challenge wheels pleeeese? I have nearly bought a set for my Golf several times but the thought of cleaning them puts me off time and again!!!

Megamunch: Any wheel that's advertised for the mk5 Golf or 8P Audi A3 will fit your Leon. Most of the bigger Audis run the same bolt pattern but have a different ET so will stick out in the arches a bit more. I'm not sure how much clearance there is in a Leon wheel arch, or whether yours is/will be lowered so be careful on bumpy roads! You will find that the bigger rims will crash a bit more over cats eyes and tramline quite a bit. They will also make torque steer worse if you go for a lower offset and remap the engine.

nice one

Alright, thanks, I'll buy those 18" Aez Excite alloys et 40 when I get enough cash and I'll need a spacer to get the right offset then.
Then get lowering springs to drop it about 30-40mm.
