Sorry the thickness of the flange that bolted to the hub, I guessing the steel will be less that the alu, it adds to the ET effectively

Yes wheels have to be made taking the thickness into account. Mine are 8mm to suit my wheels and offset I wanted.

Matts will be a minimum of ten mm as mark won't make the ally any thinner he usually says 15mm which I beleive matts will be

Is it the pics or do the allen bolts that hold these onto the hub not look very substantial?

They look awesome, would love them on the fiesta,

I would get them high tensil bolts that have been turned down chemically blackened though as they will go rusty pretty quickly
