Hi I have a Ford Focus mk3 2014 it has 16” alloys on it at the moment I want to put 18” snowflake alloys on it. Will I have to change anything else if I did this. Thank you in advance

    Are they mk2 ones?

    Oddly enough, I have 17" wheels on my TitX and would quite happily go down to 16" and a narrower width for the improved ride and reduced noise.

    For the size of the car though 16” just look to small. I think they do anyway.

    For mk2 ones to fit you will need to use the mk3 studs but they will be closer to the struts due to the offset so spacers would be a good idea. If mk3 alloys then 18 would be fine with no rubbing issues just a different feel to the car.
