Guest Zanhar25 Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 Hi all, I'm new to the cabriolet world and only entered it by chance, my wife's friend got a new car and offered me her 1997 mk6 1.8 Ghia which she had owned for 12 years! This is going to be used as a second car by me and my wife as I have a Mondeo St mk3 as my daily driver and my wife has a second gen Mini Cooper S Now the reason for my posting- I don't like the original Ghia alloy wheels and want to change them. I don't want to spend loads on a set of wheels and want to fit genuine ford wheels not after market wheels, either 15",16"or17" I need to know which ford wheels will fit without spacers or modifying body work! Do Mondeo mk 2 Zetec S ( cosworth style ) fit, or mk1 Focus 17" inch wheels fit or 16' Spot ka wheels? What wheels do you have on your cab and can you post a picture so I can see what they look like. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Zanhar25 Posted September 12, 2015 Share Posted September 12, 2015 Since this post my Cab looking and going a lot better. New clutch, new aerial mast, new brakes, wishbones, idle problem sorted! To name a few jobs I had to do. The wheels I went for are 15" Softlines, I would of preferred 17" soft lines but at about £500 a set I decided against them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
