Only silly people put ET25 8x16's on thier Fiestas I'm fairly sure AGAR wants his fiesta to go round corners. He has 4x4 Sapph sharktooth 7jx15" ET35 alloys. Thank you and goodnight
I was under the impression they were ET40 cossie rims - as i asked here, only one reply though could be wrong: https://passionford.com/forum/viewto...934&highlight=

But i did require 5mm spacers on the front to stop the inner lip of the alloy from rubbing on the suspension struts - ie bringing down the offset to ET35 i believe?

If what you say is right then the front offset wil now be et30 - i am confused But its looking promising about the width though, i have bugger all rubbing with them.

Ive heard some bad reports on the weakness of Superleggras, and Rab you know how poor the roads are about here, hoping ultraleggras will be stronger - anyone know? Want to get these ordered asap!

Oh and Mike this is why






Get the ultraleggaras. Just because they're cooler. The superL's production stopped for nearly a year due to bad castings.....

Just get decent tyres on them, ie, not Falkens are they have zero rim protection on them

And I am convinced the Saff alloys are ET35. MY rs2k alloys were ET40, and when I tried a set of 2wd saff alloys on there was an extra few mill of clearance on the inside of the rear arch. Rubbed on the outside though The saff alloys are 7J, the RS2k are 6.5J. Hence, the Saff alloys must be a lower offset
