Definitely a trap for people buying rims overseas.

Yeah, thre are already some disappointed Fiesta owner who wanted to order the euro 17 inch Ford Fiesta wheels.
Looks like Thailand is producing 2 kinds of models, the ASEAN one with PCD 100 wheels and the Australian market WT with PCD 108 wheels.
The ASEAN model is probably using Mazda 2 hubs (PCD 100?)
I'm guessing the Australian model uses PCD 108 wheels because the German WS model sold earlier has PCD 108 wheels too... maybe so they can share the same wheel options or aftermarket wheels?
I'm curious now about the 7-spoke wheels sold as an accessory in the ASEAN markets (see linke below), it looks identical to the wheels of the German-made Fiesta WS Zetec.

Did Ford make a PCD 100 version of these wheels.
Before I forget, thank you guys for replying.
@dannyhilton, thank you for taking that photo with the ruler showing the PCD 108 wheels of the German Fiesta.
