i have got a set of genuine cossy wheels does anyone know if they will fit straight onto my fiesta?

or do i need spacers or arches rolled or anything?

also do they stick out of the arches?

they are the 16" and 8.5J wide.

Cheers

i'm not sure on the exact mods needed for cossie wheels, but i think rolling/triming might be involved for the arches!

i have a feeling they'll stick out abit so you'd need to get an xr/rs kit on it

jam is the man in the know about them as he has them on his fez, drop him a pm

get the grinder out and prepare to chop fuck out the arches, lol

Yeah with 8.5j you will definately need xr/rs arches to make them legal, as for scrapeing - providing you car isn't lowered you will be fine on the front with 5mm spacers and also fine at the back providing nobody sits in the back and you are careful on speed bumps lol.

why would you need to put a spacer on a wheel with such a low offset ?

I could only see a reason if they would going to hit the shock.

aha this old chestnut. depending on your shocks you will need a spacer to stop it fouling the leg...arches..if they are minters the next bit will be a sore point as there is alot of butching involved...i actually set mine up for 225/40/16s...then once i got that working i went down to 215/40/16s so i knew it wouldnt foul the arches etc..it will rub on full lock thats up to how you want to play that one. 195s are hideously stretched and loooks like a bikini on a fat bird..loads of shit hangin out the side. for the sake of your wheels and the sake of potential problems i would seriously suggest you dont run under a 205 width.

last point i will make...looks great...RUINS handling...your car will handle alot lot better on 15s... and if you read FiestaTurbo...beware the curse yO

Jam.

thanks

thats exactly what i needed to know, i think ill just stick with the mondeo wheels, sounds like to much hasstle to change

Rob has stretched 195/45/16's on the cossie wheels he has for his mk6 escort, looks good

the decent tyres dont look to stretched
