Bingooo27 Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 I'm really tempted for the Momo thunders in black. Although these are very nice too. Would love actual BBS CH's but they're the wrong fitting and pretty pricey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beatty36 Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 Definitely get some pics when these are on plz! They look awesome. Now im torn between them and the momo thunders! yeah there the same wheels in the background except black, the wheels 7.5 inches instead of the standard 7inch 17" fiesta wheel, i think this is better cus it will save me buying spacers for them :P yeahh no sweat will get pics up asap, hopefully have my ap coilovers and stoffler diffuser and all on by then too :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tato Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 By the way, is there any other change besides buying rims and tires, that I have to do when changing from 15inch rims to 17 inch rims? beatty36, you mentioned something about "spacers" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tato Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 205/40/17s. They do have a good selection better to phone. So I guess that this is the most recommended option right (205/40/17) or 215.45.17? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
