I'm on a couple of FB pages relating to MK7 Fiesta's, don't ban me. 😉 

Loads of people are either selling spacers, asking for them or asking what size they should get. 😕 

What's so hard about buying the correct offset wheels?  Especially when all they are doing is pushing their wheels outside of the arches without the need to clear big brakes.

Am I just getting too old, or finally a bit sensible ish?

    Why?

    It's just for looks.  Wider track gives a more aesthetically pleasing stance when they've been dropped a few mm on coilovers.

    Well its cheaper to get spacers to change the stance of your vehicle rather than buying a whole new set of wheels and tires. Obviously correct offset new wheels are the ideal but with the correct longer hardware theres no reason spacers are not as safe.
