TangoDaz Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 Hi I have a MK 2.5 focus sitting on 17" rims and thinking of changing them to 18"st rims I have heard that you need to fit stops on the steering rack to stop the wheel rubbing on the body work inner wheel arch has anyone got any advice?

TangoDaz Posted October 20, 2016 Author Share Posted October 20, 2016 Are they hard to fit? Any trouble in removing the front spring damper unit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
