Anyone on here done this, just trying to get a idea of how the mk2 RS wheels are on the ST, and would be good to hear from anyone with them on their car. See pics of a couple, just wondering how it affects the handling and ride etc. On a standard ride height car ideally.

 

yes they will fit mate

 

hi cheers for reply, i know they fit, as said above i have seen pics of them on st's. But want to know if anyone has experiance of them? ride, handling differences etc?

 

they fit straight on, there was some one on the ffoc with them on im sure and it looked the nuts!!

lets be realistic, ther are an inch bigger than normal, the cars are not a million miles apart so one would assume that there would not be much difference at all

 

Not looking for assumptions etc, just looking for people with REAL WORLD experiance. I know they fit, I know what they look like, just want to know, from people who have them fitted on their focus st what the drive is like with them.

 

theyll fit but boy do they look ugly

 

fuck me. seriously, did I ask if they fitted? or how you thought they looked? I just asked about the ride and handling, and above I pointed out that thats all I was after! i don't understand why people are struggling so badly to read the post!

 

I do have info to help you if you want to know.....

You will also need to fit spacers that the RS has, as the wheels will hit the inner arch!

 

 

Iv seen it done in Performance Ford. It makes them look really stealthy I think. Less imposing than the standard ones. I saw them on a black facelift ST, quality sleeper.

 

dose anyone know if the rs wheels would fit my 56 plate focus ghia estae?

 

I would say so yes but will look gash IMO! Go for a 17" ideally or 18" wheel at a push

 

yeah i might go for the st alloys

 

And lower it slightly and will look spot on dude

Nice colour! Here's a pic with 18's, just needs a slight drop and will look even sweeter

thanks mate! they look sweet and are very similer to the st ones cheers

 

No problem buddy, I thought they were ST ones at first glance but just very slightly differ like you say

 

fitted these to the car a while ago for the record, did require a bit of work but nothing serious. Certainly not "the spacers from the rs" they dont hit the inner arch at all.

 

hey mate so whats the ride quality like ? and what was the quite of bit of work to get them to fit without using spacers ? cheers.

 

Hi mate, replied to your pm. I won't put the reply on here, cos noone believed it was so simple at the time, let em buy the Pumaspeed kit

 

Who posted the black st on here with rs rims ? It look brilliant imo.

 

Richie ST above i reckon, stunning looking car

 

Was me, cheers guys
