Default MK7 Fez ST alloys..UNUSUAL QUESTION..

Now I'm just contemplating something, two questions below...

Would anyone agree with 'LOOKS WISE ' 17's on a MK3 FEZ?

IF NOT CAN THE NEW FEZ ST WHEELS BE GOT IN 16inc as replica's??????



I'm looking at rebuilding my turbo into a modern, oe looking 90's throw back to the days when 17's on a mk3 were cool, but it will be classy I HOPE AND PROMISE...NO FIBREGLASS SHITE

Appreciate handling wont be great,BUT its more for look and nostalgia than anything else...

Cheers lads

I wonder what the car will drive like with 17s.

I put 17s on my old puma i used to own and it was a horrible ride.

Personally myself much prefer the 17 in upgrade alloys on my ecoboost s over the st wheels.

tried 17" RS7s on my FRST looked odd and drove terrible, 16s is best by far and mk7 fez alloys have a high offset too

Cheers gents...

I genuinely love the ST rims, and tbh every wheel I look at has either been done to death or imop just look shit.

appreciate the stud pattern, offset point 1PD...

Why has no one done a 16 inch rip off of these like they do for every other wheel...
