Default Mondeo Wheels on a Fezzie.

I'm thinking of putting the 16" Mondeo 5 spoke alloys onto the fezzie.

The measurements are et40 6.5"j x16" running 195/45's tyres.

Will i have any fitment/rubbing problems?

This may be the same for the mondeo rim's

IVE GOT MONDEO 16INCH FIVE SPOKES.
IVE GOT 15 MM SPACERS ON THE REAR AND HAD THE FRONT ARCHES ROLLED. MINES LOWERED ALL ROUND BY 60MM.
IT ONLY SCRUBS ON LITTLE BUMPS IN THE ROAD, BUT I THINK IF URE LIGHTER THAN ME (17ST 6FT 4) THEN IF YOU FOLLOW THE SAME SETUP, U SHOULD BE FINE.....

So let me get this straight...........

You can get the 15" with a et35 & et 40 offset and a 16" with the et35 & et 40 offset??

I've fitted them, theres a little bit of scrubbage on the front - i think thats mainly to the tracking needing to be done.

And the rear - which is the wank G-Max suspension i'm running at the mo

Getting a full Spax set up in 2 weeks, so i'll re-evaluate the situation then

My main disappointment is the feeling lack of acceleration in comparison to the 14" wheels.
