I have this color on my Titanium sedan.. guess I'll wait for someone to wreck/rear ended [in this color] and buy all the front and side skirts to swap onto the sedan! I'll have to come up with something for the rear valance to match though...

I think the factory is just liquidating the silver wheels that are left on cars that would now normally get rados, since they will no longer be available off the production line and think someone goofed on putting those silver wheels on a car with red calipers.
Kinda hard to tell in the pic but they look just like my Rado wheels. The base wheel looks a bit.. how do I say this... "brighter" heh

I ordered the silver wheels because I didn't want red calipers. I wish I had known I could get black instead.

I just got done writing in another post that I wasn't sure Magnetic was a good color for the FiST. Your pics make me think otherwise. Sweet ride!

Meh, not what I was expecting. The color is great but I'm not a fan of the wheels like I thought I would be. It looks much better with the silver wheels, imho. I'll bet the rado grey wheels would look great on it as well.

Not a fan of the blurple, personally.

If I wasn't expecting a major life change in two years, I'd totally trade in on a Magnetic 16. Foolish? Hell yeah. So, I might settle for a paint job lol.

Has anybody gone to the dealership to ask why they aren't putting red calipers on those black wheels for 2016?

Loving the FiSt so far, 150 miles on it so far. I really want to get some rims, but don't know what will look better, silver or black. Need to see a few magnetic fist's with rims to see how it looks. Who's going to be first?!



I like the color, but to me the ultimate color on the fist is the performance blue. Might be biased because my last car was Deep Impact Blue.

Blue wheels. Seriously. Purple in a pinch. Red could look very nice, or body color(think SVT Focus EAP wheels).

For the 2016s the Rado Grey wheels are standard and Ebony Black is optional. Silver is gone. The Rado Grey wheels are a bit lighter than the Magnetic paint so they look a bit lighter.

As for the red calipers coming with the grey wheels and not the black... I don't know. The build site says the black wheels have red calipers. I just picked up my molten orange 2016 yesterday with the grey wheels and it has the red calipers. And the story is the same on all 2016 Fiesta STs posted on autotrader. The factory screwed up and hasn't caught it yet. At least not since my car was built.

I cannot wait to get back into the states to pick up my Fist. I have Kosei K8r wheels waiting for me I am really leaning toward powdercoated red. I think it would be a great combo. Less than 50 days until I pick her up!
