Hey all! Long time no talk

I'm on the lookout for a second set of rims for my girlfriend's 2005 S40. Ideally it would be neat to get a set of 17/18" rims off a newer s40/c30 as nice summer rims.
Alternatively I would settle for a set of steelies or stock 16" alloys and just run the stock alloys in the summer.
So steel or alloy wheels, >16" and needs to have the oddball 63.1mm center bore. Hit me up if you have a set, or know of a set for sale!

Thanks guys :)

Does the wheel itself have a 63.1 bore, or is that the hub diameter? Ford FWD wheels are 5x108 with a 63.4mm bore, ostensibly to fit over a 63.1mm hub.

What offset do you need? The Focus ST guys are upgrading their wheels and there are always a set or two of the stockers for sale: 18x8, 55mm offset, 5x108, 63.4mm bore. Check the forums. You can pick up some snazzy low-mile summer tires, Goodyear Eagle F1 235/40, for pretty cheap too.

If you want to see one as an example, come on over. My summers are cleaned up and hanging in my garage.

^^^ those, only bright silver. Lots of kids have plastidipped them matte black, I have no idea why.
