i have finally bought my first car ready for my 17th birthday in a few days. its a mk5 fiesta 1.25 zetec. i dont plan to change anything too serious because i will jus get raped with insurance due to age so i plan to fit a pair of nice alloys and leave it at that as i plan to build a saph cossy from the ground up soon so i will need all the money i can for that. with my fiesta i was panning to get a set of alloys from the zetec s and paint them black myself which shouldnt be 2 much of a problem but can anyone recommend any other ford alloys that would do the job and look similar to the zetec s ones? i was thinking the st170 ones?

You'll want springs if you fit ST170 ones or it'll look like a moon buggy

Other than that, well done.

Most wheels are a straight swap if there ford ones, but bigger ones like 17s will look silly on a little fiesta unless its decked.

Get some 15's i reckon.

zetec s ones, get some 45 profile tyres too the 50's look like baloons
