rs2000 think they're the ones it came with

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/RS-2000-ALLOY-...QQcmdZViewItem

if its these one you mean, then they came with the car. but they need diamond cutting coz look minging. But i dunno whether to refurb them and stick them back on, or get some 15" wheels, coz they look better

They'd look good, but with 17's it needs putting on its arse, with 7.5 wide wheels.. its kind of tricky, takes a lot of arch work and a lot of patience and expensive suspension

Go on fiestaturbo.com forums ask andyrs1800 how hard it was to fit his RS7's to the car.. took him ages and it was still miles high. they just don't work properly on a fiesta.

I think 16's look best on a fiesta . Ive had 4 sets of wheels so far, had 15" Venoms at first then 15" white monza's


currently 16" RL7's, which i think looks the bollocks



before that i had 16" multispokes
