Hi

Anyone know if MK2.5 (facelift) alloys fit on the non facelift MK2 Focus?

Thanks

    yes they will, the car is exactly the same mechanically. I have the MK2.5 17" alloys fitted to mine as you can see in the profile pic

    Exactly the same hubs so no difference to the bolt spacing.

    Just be aware that if you go over 17" rims that fitting rack limiters is a must.

    Cheers guys

    Stoney, I have just put 17" Focus alloys on my MK2.5 I should be ok there ?

    what's rack limiters? not heard of that before

    rack limiters are to stop you turning your wheel too much where it can catch on the wheel arches if the wheels are too big. you will be fine.

    yep 17" are fine, just remember that tyre prices are much higher than 16" ones :D

    I've used them for yrs & been the cheapest.

    Also try Ears.co.uk

    Ears online tyres in Macclesfield

    Btw they both do price matching if proved cheaper.
