Hi everyone, first post here. I have a Ford Focus MK4 (2019) ST Line 1.0L ecoboost 123hp version and it's currently equipped with the basic ST Line 17" alloys. I'm intending on purchasing the ST Line X 18" diamond cut rims to put on my car. Will there be any issues doing this? Thanks guys

    Oh is it really that bad? I got potentially a good deal on a full set of 4 with tyres they look amazing aswell. Would you advise against that?

    Just remember not to curb em, you can  only get them cut back a few times depending on damage.Loved mine ( ST Line x) unfortunately my love affair with the kerb got a little out of hand . Eventually had them re coated all over in black suited my red focus and much cheaper to repair lol

    Regards people mentioning rough bumpy ride ( there's been quite a few mentioned this ) .I've seriously never had a issue with this unless I've hit pot holes or go to fast over speed humps.Considering my age I must be lucky to have a strong back if that's the case. Anyway if you go that route hope you enjoy them

    Pot holes and speed bumps are rough regardless I find on the ST Line. Will I need to update my insurance to let them know I've modified the cars wheels?

    You are obliged to declare all modifications.
