Deffo not the Escort Cossie rims. They do look good but they ruin the way the car drives.

The RS7's if you can get them in a 16" fitment the 17" rims are just too damn big on a mk3 Fiesta and ruin it.

Would love to see pics of the Speedlines and Comps

mint mate, I've just sourced a mint set of 3dr rims I'm picking them up next week liams have you used spacers on the back if so what mm have you used??

I'm thinking more and more will choose 3 dr rims for fiesta's as the mondeo thing has been conquered plus with the 15" you keep the handling

Prepare to buy coil overs and loads and loads of arch work.
Some people have been lucky fitting these but keeping higher ride height.
If you were planning on lowering it, you have to cut the metal arch right back and the kit has to trimmed all the way to the edge just to stop scrapping.

a friend of mine has coil ovas on his mk 5 and the rears rub like a s.o.b and he only has 16's on it, so he had to get the rear arches rolled n flared, looks sweet. Like the 3dr wheels but id hav to go escort cossie, they should of made some for the mk3 in the 1st place

Very good point Steve,
They do look the nuts but when it jepordises the handling of the vehicle like they do, its just not worth it at the end of the day and i think i speak for the majority that have gone down the escos road.

A set of wheels that haven't really been discovered for the fiesta at the moment is................................................ .......................................

8mm on the front and 10mm on the back, they are gonna be wide, i don't want scrapping thats why i ditched the 16's.
Have you had to put longer studs on???

Can't wait to see the pics outside

Well on the front its got 10mm of spacing and thats given a nice bit of clearance prob could go down couple of mm? But on the back 10mm's not enough so have to go more and put longer threads on the back Gone take it round the block and see if it scrapes prob will at the front as its quite low lol
