    With regards to the rubbing - did you check the wheel offset is correct for your car?

    As for the pulling to the right I take it you have checked the tyre pressures?

    Hi Smithy

    max tyre width given for ford ka any year is 14x165x60/65

    or16x195x45

    i would say that even taking into account what CYB suggests the wheels you are trying to fit are to wide.

    p.s. just out of curiosity what model & year fiesta was it?
