Simple answer yes it's listed as an option, depending on your model you may have calipers clearance problems, steel wheels normally clear some alloys won't, most of fords own will be ok

thanks for reply where have you seen this info. everywhere i have seen doesnt list this option ? 

there tyres are thinner so wouldnt that effect grip ?

They may fit but they may also be the incorrect tyre size. What wheels do you have?

Link below is for a 2006-2007 S-max. Other years available on that website.

They are 16” steel wheels with 205/55/16 tyres that are new.

They will fit and the grip will not be adversely effected in fact may be higher, I ran mine on 16" with winter tyres as these are what I had from my Mondeo these where mk3 alloys
