Hello from McKinney TX

Hello everyone!!! First time ever joining a forum. I have owned my 2016 Fiesta ST since 2021. Love this little hatch and it has been great, it's bone stock other than after market wheels "O.Z. Superturismo GT" 17x7, which i had to buy last year due to finding out that 3 out of my 4 OEM wheels were bent and had horrible road force values as a new set of tires were been replaced.
This past couple weeks I been having the ich to start modifying my Fiesta, so went into the deep dive of the internets and found this really awesome forum.
So decided to start with simple, relative inexpensive mods, ordered from Mountune a short shift adapter and the rear engine mount.

I do have some inquires and i have not been able to find much info (or really mix opinions), but for some reason my engine overheats in stop and go traffic when ambient temps are over 102°F or overheats with the AC at idle, even thou the cooling fans are going at max speed, if someone could point me in the right direction or thread it would be greatly appreciate it.

Welcome!

Your finding out what quite a few Fiesta owners did that the engine cooling system isn't all that great if you get high temps, and that is compounded when running the AC. People have solved this with aftermarket radiators. https://whooshmotorsports.com/collections/ford-fiesta-st-cooling

Welcome, this is a good Forum. There are a lot of knowledgeable and helpful people on here.

WELCOME!

Which tires are on the Superturismos?

Those are still some of the best looking wheels for these cars, even though some on here do not like them all that much.

Usually, I do not like silver wheels on our Magnetic color rides, but those look GREAT!
