The Official Fiesta ST Wheels Thread

Thanks! Who did you order from? And they came with the center caps?

Sorry no pics today. It's been pouring most of the day here in central Florida. Wheels come with center caps and I purchased mine at Nlmotoring.com

Got a great deal off of tire rack for these Kosei, I think they look great and have gotten tons of compliment locally! Great wheels for $110 each!

Yea I do but I really got bored of the Sparcos lol had them for quite a while. I really wasn't looking for wheels, I wanted to buy the TD from Hijinx but no moneyz, I spent like $550ish for the Kosei which I thought was a great deal! I really wish there was some 16x8 wheels but so far no dice. Thinking about re-doing my suspension set-up too, want to go to Meister coils!

Yea I saw but didn't care for Rotas anymore. On the thread with the white race car FiST from Germany I am loving those Motec wheels :hump:

Does anyone know if you mount a 205/50/16 on a car that is stock height, will it rub?

Many many many people have done this without issue. Some report VERY minor rubbing, most don't.

It theoretically shouldn't because it's not that big of a change; 15mm or 0.6" increase in total diameter:

OEM: 205/40r17
40% of 205mm = 82mm
x2 for the 2 sidewalls of the total tire diameter = 164 mm
17 inches for wheel diameter = 432 mm
Total diameter OEM = 596 mm

New, fatter tire on a smaller wheel; 205/50/16
50% of 205mm = 102.5mm
x2 for the 2 sidewalls of the total tire diameter = 205 mm
16 inches for wheel diameter = 406 mm
Total diameter OEM = 611 mm
