Performance Alloys.com
Found this great site for alloy wheels. As the Indy suits Ford Focus wheels you can put in 'ford focus' as the car and it's database will pop up
with wheels that will fit the required car and the prices seem good too. Check out: http://www.performancealloys.com/index1.htm

Donut, are you sure about the Focus wheels? Reason I'm asking, the Focus is FWD, and FWD cars usually have loads more offset (or is it inset?) than
RWD cars.

If you look on the MK web site you will see the yellow indy has focus wheels and we have been told by MK that they are the best fit. Don't fordet
that the width of the car at the wheels is the same as a sierra so you need this type of wheel to make it look ok.
If you are building an indy give them a ring or ask on here what offset you need.
I personally like really 'dished' wheels like they had in the 70's but that has all changed now on modern cars. poo!

John,
As I understand it the Sierra was built with wheels that ran FWD offsets. I don't know if this part is true or an old wives tale but I was told that
the Sierra was originally intended to be FWD but it didn't come about for one reason or another. True or not the upshot is Sierra wheels are
definately FWD offset.
7 out of 10 people suffer with hemorrhoids. Does that mean the other 3 enjoy them?
