Looking at the replies from everyone else I'm obviously going against the grain here but between the two I "definately" prefer the HR125 wheels.

Forgive my stupidity, but those wheels are both 5 stud wheels, not four stud for a Fiesta. Apparently there is a way around this?

I'd go with the T12s. Give a similar look to the ST and would look a whole lot better than a white rim when putting them on a black car.

Do the HR125's come in black or shadow grey?? If so then it will look awesome.

Thanks robjh80 I think I am going to keep them the same colour as they are now as I just could not be botthered have to get them re-painted every time the paint comes of or I scratch them.
Thanks heaps for the pics aswell made it easy for me to make my mind up. I now wish I have got those spax 45mm lowering springs now and not the pedders as that is how low I wanted my car. Will put the wheels on and see how I go. You are getting your wheels on tomorrow ane you not? Get pics up asap. |

Awesome! Can't wait to see them on the Fiesta! Definitely going to have to supply pics once they are installed. How long will it take to get here?

Once I get my tax cheque in they will take about 2-3 weeks then I have to save for tyres but I so cant wait.
Here is a pic of someone in the uk that has painted them black. I can't wait now. |

They look awesome, and would look great on the Fez. Unfortunately they are way out of my price range. :(
Has anyone ever tried to paint their alloy wheels? (this is a fair dinkum tightar$e asking)

Out of curiousity, has anyone had any experience with powerdercoating rims? I often hear that as an option as opposed to paint.

After all the joy of finding a wheel that I really liked I went to order them and they have gone up in price to $385 a wheel so I am not doing them now, so I bit the bullet and just ordered a set of ROH STRADA'S in 17" as at $97 a wheel they are two cheap to pass up. All I need to do now is to get someone to photshop them on a black fez and paint the wheels black to decide whether I like that or not or just leave them the standard colour they come in. Can anyone help me please.
