Obviously it has the 19" rims, question I am asking could I fit 18s with a 8.5j to use just in the winter as I got a full set of 225/40/18 winter tyres from my other car.
Position of the stick on balance weights is also a factor. If a particular design of 18” wheel will just fit over the brakes, when you factor in the thickness of the wheel balance weights, there might be insufficient clearance between the brake calipers and the inner surface of the wheel.
My Cupra is currently running on 17” winter wheels 7.5J, ET40 (Dezent TD) - these were the TUV recommended size for my Octavia VRS with the same front brake set up (standard TRV version - no chance for Brembos). They are tight (low profile weights only). As above, depends on spoke design for clearance.
