13" wheels.

Post by Lord Miff »

Hi all.

I have a 58 reg 1600TDCI TITanium. It has the silly big wheels as stock.

Does anyone know if 13" wheels would fit?? (Stop laughing).

I have a set of 13" winter tyres on Vauxhall wheels, but these wont fit a Ford. SO, if a 13" wheel would clear the calipers, then I could pick up some steel wheels cheap and make use of the winter tyres.

Ta in advance.

You can carry on laughing now... :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Just out of interest which wheels do you class as silly big?

And no I don't believe they would fit, you don't really wanna go any smaller than 15".

I had mine with 14", so 14" is still a possible option (wouldn't do that though)

Thanks so far.

I know a 14" will fit as my spare is a 14" wheel. By silly big wheels, I mean the OE wheels, which are IIRC 16".

The reason for this is so I can fit the winter tyres. I haven't needed them before because I used to drive a Land Rover Defender and it was pretty much unstoppable. The fiesta is not really up to off roading....

No, I wasn't stuck in the above photo's. I think the Festa would have struggled somewhat :lol: :lol:

I have winter wheels and tyres and use 15" steel wheels, 195/50/15 is a good size as it's easily available. I am selling them so let me know if you're interested :)
