Hi,

Anyone know if these two wheels are exactly the same dimensions. I'm missing a mondeo titanium X wheel so scrapyard sends me wrong wheel. I am wondering are these 18inch wheels the exact same size as I think they have to be for the NCT. Was looking online can't see sizes.

Thanks in advance.

The tyres need to be the same size across the axle.  I'd expect the Focus alloy to have a lower profile tyre than the Mondeo one so if it came with a tyre, it's probably wrong.

The actual alloy dimensions won't be measured for NCT but they'll be stamped on the back somewhere.  They'll both be 5x108 so you're just looking to see if the width (J) and offset (ET) are the same.

I don't think they are but I haven't had a thorough search. The bottom wheel is not from a Focus ST250, I think it's an earlier ST225 maybe. 

The Mondeo wheel is 8J X 18" with and offset of ET55. If the bottom wheel was a ST250 wheel then it would be the same, I know because I use them for my winter wheels and from memory when I researched it the older ST225 wheel has a different offset.

This is a Focus ST250 alloy wheel the same as what I use for winter.

The bottom wheels is what is on my car now I presumed they were standard titanium X alloys. So scrapyard did send me the right wheel as the top one is standard titanium alloy😅. I'm on the search for a focus ST 225 alloy so I double checked there.

Thanks again.

Be careful as alloys on the ST225 have subtle differences between the facelift and pre-facelift models that you probably wouldn't notice unless you compared side by side.
