MK7 These should have been the stock wheels

The Focus SVT 17" wheels fit the fiesta perfect. Wrapped with 205/45/17 Hankook Ventus V2 concept2 rides smooth, no rubbing. Have Mountune Yellow Springs and Mountune Shocks on all 4 corners so it's a bit lower.

Might have to wrap my car eventually with the orange spice that color is so good with the brick building in the back nice.

u/AdlerFMT 3d ago

Looks great! Just how I want mine to look (if I can ever find a clean set of EAP or SES wheels) 

What tire spec are you running? Sidewall seems big for a 205/40

u/karatescott05 3d ago

Continental ECS 205/45/17 :)

Eh, honestly like the OEM better, and I don't care for OEM much either, but the less spokes the better. The focus 5 spoke svt or pony wheels look much better imo. These aren't bad looking but they just ...don't do anything for me.

Before anyone says anything in merica these are called the euro svt wheels, the svt wheels I speak of are 5 spoke.

Like these? From a Countour SVT

u/hopelessremedy3244 3d ago

There’s something for everyone, I like the rally/race wheel vibe these bring to the car. The US OEM 5 spoke just wasn’t the look for me.

Perfect OEM+ winter wheels

u/hopelessremedy3244 3d ago

Bro that thing is tucked! Clean, they look good with black and red.

u/SovietPatrickStar 2d ago

OEM+ seems like a slight understatement

u/CalmAspectEast 3d ago

At least an option. I love the stock wheels thatre on it.

I just picked up my second FiST and it came with these wheels. What are they from? A Focus? I was trying to figure it out, but I love them either way!

Edit: added photo just because 😂

u/hopelessremedy3244 3d ago

I believe they were early 2000’s option on focus. There is an EAP (Euro Appearance Package) option and SES trim has similar look but slightly different center cap lip.

u/maniacalmorgan 3d ago

Ah ha! I was looking at the C-MAX, but those look to be plastic. Appreciate it!

u/Alohasb7 3d ago

💯 I love these oem wheels

u/John_Wick2893 2d ago

I like the Ecosport wheels, they look identical to OEMs but in 16in. Their offset also fills the wheel well perfectly.

3

u/Puzzled_Main3464 3d ago

These are the wheels I have. I got them for $550 with Michelin Pro Super Sports off of fb marketplace. Hell of a deal 

3

u/hopelessremedy3244 3d ago

Found my set from a local on Reddit in this sub, That's a good deal with tires!

u/Stukkoshomlokzat 3d ago

I personally don't think these poly-spoke wheels fit the FiST. They are kind of elegant while the FiST is anything but. More angry/blocky wheels fit better.

u/campbellpics 3d ago edited 3d ago

I'm in the market for one of these and currently looking for the lowest mileage Mk8.5 ST with the best spec I can find. Just haven't decided on the colour I want yet.

But yeah, I agree, and I was thinking one of the first things I'll do it change the wheels. I still own a 2004 Focus ST170 that I bought new in 2004, and I was even wondering if those wheels would fit the Fiesta because I really like that spoked "touring car" look, but I'm also looking at doing a full restoration on the Focus and just buying some similar looking wheels for the Fiesta.

Anyway yeah, I like this look.

u/eparchme 3d ago

No, the stock wheels should've been 16s

3

u/butterurpancakes 3d ago

I want eap's so bad.  Definitely the wheel that should've gone on the fist.  

2

u/our_guile 3d ago

They look so good. If they were available in 15x8 or 16x8 and a little lighter I'd have them on my car now

1

u/DennyPebblepot 3d ago

That was my problem with them. I love how they look but I wanted 15s

1

u/hopelessremedy3244 3d ago

Yeah they would be even better at 8” wide at 16”. These SVT 17s feel lighter than the stock oem 17s that came with the car honestly.

2

u/tmos540 3d ago

Oh hey I've got those wheels on mine! Agree, it should have at least been an option.

2

u/DesignerSuccessful35 3d ago

Will the svt focus wheels fit on our cars? The ones that sort of look like 2k cobra R's?

1

u/hopelessremedy3244 3d ago

Has to be a 4x108 bolt pattern. Not sure what those wheels you are speaking of have for bolt pattern.

2

u/DesignerSuccessful35 3d ago

I know they're 4 lug, they'd fit but idk about a +49 offset....

2

u/2nerkid 3d ago

They'll fit fine, they'll just be inset slightly further than stock (stock Fiesta is ET47.5 so not too far off). Some folks run them with spacers but that's more for the look, not for any clearance issues.

1

u/hopelessremedy3244 2d ago

Yeah these look good too, 2nerkid answered your concern in the other reply. That offset shouldn’t be a problem, just depends if you want them to stick out more with spacer or keep stock style with them being in the fenders more.

1

u/terroristteddy 3d ago

Yes, and they look excellent.

1

u/DesignerSuccessful35 2d ago

I know I want to find a set!

2

u/gaius49 3d ago

The OEM wheels are easier to clean.

1

u/hopelessremedy3244 2d ago

This is true, I clean my car regularly so the dust isn’t too bad. I enjoy taking time to wash the car.

2

u/mazzjm9 3d ago

I couldn’t agree more

2

u/terroristteddy 3d ago

Disagree, but much love OP

1

u/hopelessremedy3244 2d ago

Respect. 🫡

2

u/Unlucky_Animal_6955 2d ago

I actually LOVE the way a few of the 17" options off of the Ecosport look on the FiST as well.

2

u/John_Wick2893 2d ago

The Ecosport Titanium 17in look really good on the FiST.

2

u/Unlucky_Animal_6955 2d ago

I REALLY want a full set of these for my Fiesta.

1

u/John_Wick2893 2d ago

I've been trying to find a set for a while with no luck.

2

u/babyivan 2d ago

They are even heavier than the stock wheels, that's the only problem with them

2

u/Nervous-Writing3404 2d ago

Hey, that's my car! They are good looking wheels, aren't they?

1

u/hopelessremedy3244 2d ago

Nice for sure!

u/ottrocity 2d ago

I had these on my SVTFs back in the day.

Ended up replacing or repairing 8 of them, which equates to roughly 1 per year of ownership. They're soft. The tire profile is too low. Michigan roads are brutal. All 4 of my stock FiST wheels mer the same fate, but now that I'm on 16s, life is great. Only had to replace one in the last 7 years.

But man those 17 spoke SVT wheels look good. They used to be available in black from Ford Racing.

1

u/NtrlBK 2d ago

Those are better than stock but I still would have changed them

1

u/S280FiST15 2d ago

I bought a set of these the day I got my 2015 fist. Had them powder coated in root beer bronze! They were good until I replaced them with an actual wheel from Axis racing

1

u/Ok_Werewolf_704 3d ago

Nah they should come stock on 15s with 205/50 tires

1

u/hopelessremedy3244 3d ago

I like that orange color. Looks good on 15s too. Anything else is better than the oem 17s I think.

2

u/Ok_Werewolf_704 3d ago

Orange spice is the best color, I bought this one for way too much because I specifically only wanted an orange spice with orange recaros lol, had to drive from FL to NC to get it too. I love the color but it does look terrible when its not clean

1

u/drome265 3d ago

Which wheels are these? They look awesome.

Always thought downsizing would make more sense on this car. 17s are too big.

1

u/Ok_Werewolf_704 3d ago

They're stock normal fiesta wheels, 15x6 or 6.5 I think. Came across them at a local u pull yard and bought the rest on marketplace, they show up along with other regular fiesta wheels on there all the time

Holy shit we have the same combo black fist with focus rims

Every American ST I see with mods looks horrendous and this is no exception.
