Will these wheels be suitable.....

Will these mk1 ford focus zetec wheels fit a standard sierra based locost(front)/haynes(rear) suspension setup?

Thanks in advance

yes but the offsets are ET52.5 not ET35 to 38 so you may need spacers ~15 to 17mm thick


btw I've got a set of these exact one going spare and only the other size of the forth

What ford uses 15" wheels with an offset of ET35 to 38, would rather not use spacers if I could help it?

Please tell me it wasn't just the Sierra ;-)

sorry edit that - some sierra's went as high as ET41 (still a bit off ET52.5 though)


the only sierra I know that came with 15" alloys was the 2wd cossie (sierra's are mostly 14" alloys from memory)

some fiesta's (90's onwards and the others on the same platform, KA, B-max, etc) may have what you want - but a lot of the newer ones seem to be ET47


be careful if using sites like this:
http://www.wheelfitment.net/ford
or this:
http://www.wheelfitment.eu/PCD/4x108/63.4.html

several of the offset ranges listed on both of these are not correct, and even the ones that are may only be for one model / wheel size...

Mondeo I think,

.....as it happens I have a set going cheap in the for sale section

ETA Although, to be fair the ET is 40
