So someone is selling these multi fit alloys for £80 - with tyres. Only bad thing is they are 15" which I fear is a little small - but then they would do for now (and better than steelys) right? What would you guys do??

Actually - there are no tyres on them :/

i would stick to steelies mate! until you have the cash saved to get what you REALLY want :D

OEM steelies look fine! people just think you have just left your car stock, But putting on undersized alloys that dont look the best IMHO means you have went out of your way and spent cash to buy crap alloys! lol

but each to there own! less is more in my book!

I'll agree with Johnny on that one, not keen on those at all. The trims you have on at the min are a lot nicer than those.

There's a guy on gumtree over here selling genuine Focus 16s, refurbed black, with tyres for £100, so just be patient mate, keep a close eye out and you'll find a bargain. I'm tempted to get them as a winter set.

And I've seen plenty other sets at keen prices too. As Johnny says, bank that £80 you were gonna spend, save up a bit more and get somethin you really like.

By the way, have we confirmed your wheels are def 5 stud then? Was a bit of confusion on your other thread.

Also, even though the wheels you mentioned above are 'multi-fit', that doesn't mean they'll fit anything. I think they're on a 4 stud in that picture you've posted...

Multi-fit wheels will normally have 8 holes or 10 holes. Generally soeaking, 8-holers will fit 4-stud wheels of two different PCDs, same for the 10-holers in that they'll fit two different 5 stud PCDs. Bound to be a few exceptions to that though for confusion's sake!

Okay so I will leave them, thanks guys. Yes they said it was a 5 stud so I can only assume. But will double check in a bit. Those alloys are very nice! Shame I don't get opportunities like that around here :( Suppose I will just keep looking! Thanks both of you :)

No probs mate, you'll be glad when you find and fit a set you like. Plus you'll have the satisfaction of reward for your patience!

I'm sure they're 5 stud mate, it was just the confusion on the other thread as I thought you said they were 4 stud.

No problem mate like gforce said it will be worth the wait! Keep your ears to the ground there is always a bargain to be had

Mk 1 Focus = 4 stud

Mk 2 Focus = 5 stud

save up and get wot you want m8 don't settle for sumthing just cos its cheap, ;)
