what size alloy will fit my skoda fabia at the moment i have a 14 inch i want to fit a 15 to 17 inch alloy wheel will it be suitable for my car|||The rule of thumb is: for each extra inch of rim diameter (15, 16, 17), add 20 mm to the original tire section width and subtract 10 from the original aspect ratio.
E.g., if your size is 185/60 R 14 (assumption), you might try:
205/50 R 15 or 225/40 R 16.
The speed and load indexes must be at least equal to the original tires.
Use the same (size, make/type, age) tires on each axle, respect the sense of rotation, if applicable, and keep the pressure to the vehicle specs (NOT sidewall pressure!) in all conditions.
Consider also your local laws, need to fit snow chains (bigger sizes usually can't fit chains) and clearance (wheel well, suspension, max. steering angle).
