Fiesta Spare Wheel ( Or Lack Of )

Featured Replies

Hi guys I just changed from a 06 BMW E46 coupe to a 2012 MK VII Fiesta Titanium which im delighted with.

The car does not come with a spare wheel and I would to get one but am unsure which other Ford wheels would bolt straight on.

The wheel size is 195/45R16 and has a radius of 22 inches / 560mm approx.

Any help would greatly appreciated



Weres the spare ? Were did u get car from ?

Most 4-stud Ford wheels will fit (earlier Fiesta, and mk1 4-stud Focus wheels) knowing this you could probably pick up a spare cheaper (scrapyard/ ebay etc) - you can go for a "full size" spare (heavier, but not speed limited) or a "spacesaver" (lighter but restricted to 80kph/50mph)

The spare is "missing" both to save money and to get the car into a lower tax/emmisions/economy bracket/ tio make the MPG better as it is a significant weight on a small car - eg a mondeo 16" steel wheel /jack/ brace is 20kgs, not weighed a Fiesta one

Many thanks Darrel will have a nosey around a few s/yards.

Im hearing a lot about remapping in my case a 1.4 TDCI with 68 bhp I think, year 2012 1500K.

Do you know is it worth doing eg reliability,warranty,issues.

No worries - the name is FOCA, though

You may loose your warranty on at least some components but that is you pesonal choice, the 1.4 is underpowered so could really do with a remap - i would get one
