Default Mk5 Zs on FRST 3spokes....

Just found this picture and thought id share with people !


....After my last idea to fit s2 alloys....... iv now changed my mind and i think ill be buying a set of these at some point.

Pulls them off SO well IMO.

*Not my car *



Obviously my car is blue so will have to paint them a darker silver colour i think.....

Erm you certainly have an interesting wheel choice , not for me though again . IMO only an Frst can pull those off and thats only because they came with them from the factory .

You'd be better putting a set of 15 inch Puma 9 spoke (millenium alloys) or Puma 'fan' alloys on mate

those 3 spokes look gash on that to be honest.

each to their own though

Puma 'fan' alloys:

9 spoke Puma millenium alloys:

what also would be nice would be a set of 17" Focus MP3 alloys, these ones on the pic of my focus below:



You can also get these in a 16 inch that were fitted to the MK6 fiesta

I like ST170 wheels on them, similar to the originals just a bit bigger.

Something in me says the 3 spokes aren't too bad, they are just far too small. Maybe 3 spokes will make a come back one day lol

most simply use phase 1 alloys and fit the st170 centre caps as the st170 alloys have a bad offset
