Hi there,

I am new to this forum, but I recently just got my first car, an 1.25 MK5 fiesta Black Edt. I managed to pick up some cossie wheels for cheap, but found the tyres are too chunky on them to fit on the car. They got bridgestone tyres on , 225 50 R16. I only tried to fit one of the rear wheels and found it was rubbing against the suspension. It also bulged out slightly of the arches, meaning spacers will just make them stick out.

Has anyone here fitted cossie wheels to a fiesta? I was told they would fit and have seen pics online(although they were commonly on a zetec s). Was wondering if stretch tyres would do it any justice, i.e. 195 by 45(or 40) R16. What do you think? Or will they still bulge out of the arches too much or rub against the suspension?

Any help will be much appreciated!
