of a fiesta st. a lad i know wants to buy the wheels off my 4x4 cossie which are et 35 .tyres are the same size 205 40 17 just not sure on the offset

52.5 standard, your 35 will fit but sit a little further out

paul thornton

do you recon they will scrub though? thanks.

Yeah they will scrub. My focus should be et49, I tried on a set of et38 and they stuck out loads, they would have scrubbed round corners, and that was only 11mm out.

So with yours 18mm out, i imagine the problem will be a lot worse. Will upset the handling too.

paul thornton

shite! best off trying to sell them to anouther cossie owner then!

Bollocks.

They will fit, just look at Graham88 Fiesta Zetec S (in think that is his user name) 17's lowered, ET35

Also the St Cup fiesta's which use ATS DTC 15x7 wheels are et35 same as the ones we had on the ex missus's fiesta and that was lowered 80mm. No scrubbage what so ever.

paul thornton

mixed views then. i know its a pain but i think the best bet is to just try the wheels on the car and take it for a drive. the car is standard ride height and knowing the lad always will be.
