Exact same offset and PCD as the Focus, for info, regarding your other thread in the Focus section.

4x108 is the stud pattern of Fiesta, Focus, and the Escorts I beleive.

Thats what you must tell them when you're looking for wheels

4 studs, 108mm spacing. Correct me Tim if i'm wrong mate.

Tim
Is it actually the same offset? Ford keeps telling me that it isn't?
If it is that is fantastic news! Now to get some good wheels!

Well, I have been told it is? It 'looks' the same, I have been told it is, maybe it isn't? I'll try it next time LeeAnne has her Fiesta over, haha.

Oh, also, btw, Danny, you are correct. However you also need to consider offset when buying wheels, and the Escorts are completely different to the Focus to the point that you cannot use Focus rims on the Escort, it contacts the suspension. I know this because I may or may not have fitted my Focus 17 inch rims to my RS2000 to see... :dr_Evil:

I think it's 85 bucks landed on your doorstep for any set of rims. I bought my last set of wheels there and they have been serving me well, best prices in Oz.

Yeah, they don't list PCD sizes because they just custom drill the rims to what you need, pretty common practice for odd shapes like ours. They buy them as blanks with no holes drilled and do it themselves, with their machine. It's all legit.

Mostly you can get the rims with centre caps that covers the holes they drill. Not because the holes look bad, just a policy of theirs.

So find a rim with a centre cap you like, or one without it - but good luck - and email them to see if they can make it for your car.

It is, but it's worth it. No point settling for something you don't like, but if you don't want to pay a few grand per rim (I know I don't!) then you'll likely have to make small compromises!

I bought these rims thru them:



Took me a while (and many photoshops of putting the rims onto my car to theoretically see what they might look like) to find a set I liked, but I'm happy, for now.

Stick with it and you'll find a set you really like!
