1994–2001 · hatchback / estate
The Felicia is a cheap, light Czech supermini, and most owners keep to 13- and 14-inch wheels or move up to a 15-inch alloy with a lower-profile tyre. Wheel databases list the same four-stud hub for the whole 1994–2001 run, so the 1998 facelift hatchback and the estate take the same wheels as the early cars. Stance builds on wide, low-offset wheels exist, but they usually come with lowered suspension and reworked arch lips.

Read these before choosing wheels for the Felicia: they explain the offset, fitment and hub numbers in this guide.
Starting points for a build. Read the notes with each setup, especially if your car is lowered or has different brakes.
A Czech owner documents a 1.3 on Exip 5.5x13 ET36 alloys with 175/60 R13 tyres, chosen over 165/70 R13 for a firmer sidewall and slightly wider stance. It is a factory-equivalent size, so no clearance work is involved.
The size Czech owners most often suggest and run on SkodaHome, and inside the Felicia club's list of usable but not factory-approved 15-inch sizes (5 to 7.25J, ET35 to ET38). One owner reports three years on 195/50 R15 with no inspection problems.
One of several sets fitted to a heavily lowered Felicia featured on Skoda-virt, with a narrow tyre stretched on a 7J rim. The car also had its front arch edges reworked.
BBS RZ wheels with a heavily stretched tyre on the same Skoda-virt show car, which ran lowered sport dampers and trimmed front arch lips. Treat it as a show fitment, not a daily setup.
Dezent 7.5x16 ET35 wheels with 195/45 R16 tyres, also listed on the Skoda-virt show car with lowered suspension and arch work.
Check the exact setup
There is no confirmed range for this car yet. Compare a known wheel with your proposed size and measure both sides.
Measure before ordering
A maximum width has not been confirmed. Tyre shape, ride height and alignment all change the available space.
These figures belong to the setups described here. Combining the widest wheel with either end of the offset range does not guarantee a safe fit. For how ET moves the wheel in and out, read wheel offset explained; for how far the tyre can sit out, see flush, poke and tucked fitment.
Upload a photo and start with a look that suits the Felicia. Try the wheels, colour and stance before you spend on parts.
An AI preview shows the look. It cannot verify physical fitment.
These tools start with the 1.3 and 1.9 D base trims, 13-inch steel wheel front size. Choose your own trim or axle in the calculator if it differs.
4x100 with a 57.1 mm centre bore. The wheels are held on by M12x1.5 bolts, not studs and nuts.
No. Wheel databases list the same bolt pattern, centre bore, bolt thread and factory sizes for the whole 1994–2001 run, for both the hatchback and the estate.
Yes. Owners commonly run 15-inch wheels around 6 to 7J at ET35 to ET38, with 195/50 R15 or 195/45 R15 tyres. These sizes aren't in the Czech factory approvals, so check your local inspection rules.
Only if they are 4x100. Favorits built before 1993 used 4x98, which won't fit a Felicia hub properly.
A Czech owner resource gives 60–90 Nm for the original bolts. We couldn't confirm a single factory figure, so check the handbook for your car.
Factory tyre (tire) sizes for the 1994–2001 Skoda Felicia 6U (Typ 791) are 165/70 R13, 175/65 R13 and 175/60 R14, depending on trim. Your tyre placard shows the size for your car.
Factory wheels are 13 × 4.5 inch, 13 × 5.5 inch and 14 × 5.5 inch, depending on trim. The stock table lists the offset for each.
57.1 mm. Aftermarket wheels with a larger bore need hub-centric rings sized to it.
This guide is a starting point, not a fitment guarantee. Specs can differ by market, trim and previous modifications. Confirm all sizes, clearances and fastener requirements with a qualified wheel and tyre professional before buying or fitting parts.
