Thanks in advance

They should go on but you might need spacers as they have a very high offset so you might find they will catch the strut. Use 15mm hubcentric spacers with the RS wheels on my ST

Thought they would! I've got 15mm eibach hubcentric spacers on my ST, cures any clearance issues. You just need to be careful if you are using standard ford locking wheel nuts with them as the studs are too long so it will cause the locking nut not to wind all the way down, so it can crack the nut. The cure is to either lop off a couple of threads off the end of one of the studs or do what I did and get some mcgard locking nuts. If you want to know the right part number for them I'll have a look through my paperwork to find it for you.
